Giants Looking For First Win At Home In NFC East Battle vs Philadelphia
A strong performance by the Giants on the road and a skidding Eagles team isn’t enough to sway Vegas to the G-Men side.
The New York Giants are listed as +3 underdogs by the Las Vegas Sportsbook for this Thursday’s home game at MetLife Stadium vs the Philadelphia Eagles.
The New York Giants (1-4) are coming off a stunning 33-31 loss to the Carolina Panthers on the road. The Giants climbed back from a early 14-point deficit, scoring with a little over a minute left in the game on a Saquon Barkley touchdown reception to make it a 31-30 game.
Carolina would be kept from attempting a manageable field goal to win the game, but 63 yards was enough as Panthers’ kicker Graham Gano drilled the game-winning kick as time expired.
The Philadelphia Eagles (2-3) are struggling as well as they are coming off a 23-21 loss to the Minnesota Vikings at home. Philadelphia fell behind 20-3 in the third quarter but would rally late, but that rally would fall short.
The Eagles have lost three out of their last four games and have not scored 24 points in a game this season, something they accomplished 12 times during the regular-season last year.
The last time these two teams met was back in Week 15 last year as the Philadelphia Eagles clipped the Giants 34-29 at MetLife Stadium. Nick Foles would lead the Eagles with 237 passing yards and 4 TDs. Eli Manning finished the game with 437 passing yards with 3 TDs and 1 INT.
