MOST RIDICULOUS: COWBOYS (WEEK 1)

The Giants had a chance to put this one away but didn’t try to score. Amazingly, their coach didn’t know about it until after the game. Then on third down quarterback Eli Manning stopped the clock for the Cowboys. Of course, Tony Romo led Dallas down the field for the winning score. Still a mind-blowing 27-26 loss in Week 1.

MOST DISGUSTING: PANTHERS (WEEK 15)

Giants wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. and Panthers cornerback Josh Norman made this into a personal slugfest. The battle reached its boiling point with Beckham’s dangerous third-quarter human missile that earned him a suspension. Oh yeah, the Giants also did what they’ve done too often this season. They allowed the opposition to drive down the field for the winning score in the final seconds. At this point in Week 15, it was almost expected, despite the Giants erasing a 35-7 deficit. They lost 38-35 on a field goal with no time remaining. (Photo by Saed Hindash | NJ Advance Media for NJ.com)

BIGGEST HEAD-SCRATCHER: JETS (Week 13)

Giants coach Tom Coughlin bypassed the field goal early in the fourth quarter with the Giants up 10 and the Jets having scored just one touchdown in the first 51:10. Predictably the Giants didn’t convert on fourth down and blew the lead. They lost 23-20 in overtime to the rival Jets. (Photo by John Munson | NJ Advance Media for NJ.com)

WACKIEST: SAINTS (WEEK 8)

Neither defense had a chance. The two quarterbacks combined for 13 touchdown passes. But the biggest play of the game was a punt return and wacky facemask penalty on punter Brad Wing that put the Saints in field goal position to hit the game-winner in a 52-49 victory.

MOST DEMORALIZING: PATRIOTS (WEEK 10)

The Giants should’ve beat the Patriots. They had a late lead and so many chances, including an interception in the final minute that hit rookie safety Landon Collins in the hands. This 27-26 defeat in Week 10 before the bye hurt. A lot. (Photo by John Munson | NJ Advance Media for NJ.com)

MOST COSTLY: REDSKINS (WEEK 12)

The Giants really had a chance to pretty much put away the division in Week 12 off their bye. Instead they were dominated by the Redskins, lost 20-14 and thus began the tailspin. (Photo by Geoff Burke | USA TODAY Sports)

MOST REGRETTABLE: FALCONS (WEEK 2)

In retrospect, this is a game the Giants should’ve never lost. Atlanta turned out to be an average team and trailed by 10 in the second half until Giants quarterback Eli Manning fumbled in the red zone. The Falcons drove down the field easily throughout the fourth quarter and in the final minutes of the 24-20 win. (AP Photo/Bill Kostroun)

BIGGEST EGG 1: EAGLES (WEEK 6)

This one in Week 6 wasn’t even close. The Giants offense (with Odell Beckham hurting) did nothing. They lost 27-7 in Philadelphia and it would’ve been worse if Eagles quarterback Sam Bradford didn’t play poorly and throw three interceptions. (Photo by Al Bello | Getty Images)

BIGGEST EGG 2: VIKINGS (WEEK 16)

Sure there was no Odell Beckham Jr. But the Giants didn’t show up and were embarrassed, trailing by 39 at one point before losing 49-17 in Minnesota in Week 16. (Photo by Bruce Kluckhohn | USA TODAY Sports)
