Typically, when the NFL rolls out its regular-season schedule for the upcoming year, it's a time for blind optimism. You can confidently stroll down the schedule and recklessly throw around wins like they are Halloween candy.

The New York Giants just endured a brutal 3-14 season that featured the team losing 10 straight games and scoring seven or fewer points in five contests overall.
