The 1984 New York Giants season was the franchise's 60th season in the National Football League (NFL). With a 9–7 record, the Giants finished in a tie for second in the National Football Conference East Division and qualified for the playoffs.[1] In the Wild Card round, New York traveled to Anaheim Stadium and defeated the Los Angeles Rams 16–13 to advance to the Divisional round.[2] Instead of traveling across the country back to New York, the Giants spent the week in Fresno, California. The team used the facilities at Fresno State to prepare for the San Francisco 49ers.[3] In spite of this the Giants still lost to the 49ers 21–10.[4]
