89th season in franchise history
The 2013 New York Giants season was the franchise's 89th season in the National Football League (NFL), the fourth playing their home games at MetLife Stadium and the tenth under head coach Tom Coughlin .
The Giants attempted to attain a playoff berth after failing to do so in 2012 , and be the first team to play the Super Bowl on their own home field, which they share with the New York Jets . However, they failed to improve on their 9–7 record and were eliminated from playoff contention after their Week 14 loss to the Chargers. The Giants started 0-6, but rallied to win 7 of their last 10, finishing 7-9. This was the Giants' first losing season since 2004 .
The Giants became the first team in NFL history to have a five-year era in which they won the Super Bowl in the third year of the era but missed the playoffs in all other years. Five other teams had similar situations where their lone playoff appearances in any five-year stretch were Super Bowl victories; however four of these were won on their fifth year of that stretch:
The San Francisco 49ers won their Super Bowl on their fourth year of their stretch from 1978 to 1982 .
Notes
The Giants traded their fourth-round selection (No. 116 overall) and sixth-round selection (No. 187 overall) to the Arizona Cardinals in exchange for the Cardinals' fourth-round selection (No. 110 overall). 2013 New York Giants staff Front office
