Giants had a complete meltdown & lost a crazy game last week with a big lead at Denver. Question is how will they bounce back? I dont think they can recover to win SU over the Eagles, but we could see another close game.
One nice trend for the Eagles is the Eagles are 8-0 SU&ATS at HOME the week before the bye week since 2013
This may be the most interesting game on the board to me. All I know is I’m done fading Jaxson dart. The guy is just good. He’s also looking comfortable in the pocket. And when he gets chased out he’s even more dangerous. The eagles are definitely trending upwards but so is the giants defense. If Daboll doesn’t coach his team out of the game I expect a close game.
It's a very good spot for Philly. They have a bye after this game, and should be fully invested in winning this one vs a divisional opponent. With short term memory revenge on their minds.
The line looks a tad light because of how well the Giants have been playing(minus the 4th quarter vs Denver).
In terms of momentum it's all on Philly's side. How the Giants respond to that epic loss is beyond me. Don't know how the players feel about Dabol and DC Shane Brown at the moment.
Giants in bad spot; 3rd Rd game in past 4. NY to Denver, back to Phil, a big ask from any team.
Giants are a lot more competitive this year, but given their talent, especially of Defensive side of the ball, its expected.
Daboll is the worst in-game coach in the NFL, going against a Top 3 coach. ??
I see a lot of love for Philly in this one and I don’t quite understand it. I’ll try to see things from the Philly backers view point.
Philly is certainly getting ready to hit their stride so it seems. The defense is healthier now and that’s what makes them scary. When Jalen Carter is doing his job and Quinyon Mitchell is at full speed you have a very solid defensive unit as a whole. The addition of Brandon Graham will be interesting. Jalen is definitely getting the offense rolling and getting both receivers involved now. A little Saquon action and here we go again with a Super Bowl run…
But let’s look back at the last two weeks. First of all the Giants/Eagles game was an ass whipping. I laid the points with philly then and it was over before it even started. The Eagles were missing two important pieces on defense, but the offense put up a measly 17 points. At the same time the Giants ran all over them for 170 yards. Jaxson Dart was in complete control of the offense and they looked great from top to bottom. Fast forward to the Denver game…
Again, total domination. Others here have argued that the Giants didn’t “dominate” anyone. They did for 3.5 quarters and that’s all there is to it. You can argue if you want, but you’re wrong. There’s no denying the meltdown at the end of the game, but the Giants STILL had the game won. The fact that they scored a touchdown on first and goal with Denver having no timeouts is the only reason they lost. Plain and simple. Jaxson Dart goes down at the one yard line with the clock running and scores one or two plays later with less than 20 seconds on the clock and it’s game over. Denver didn’t beat the Giants, the Giants beat the Giants.
So now there’s so much love for Philly. It’s a “revenge” game! No it’s not. It’s a divisional football game. It will be intense for that reason and that reason alone. The Giants will never recover from last week’s epic failure! Sure they will. The game is played on the field by the players. These are not teenage girls, they’re professional athletes. They’re not going through a breakup with their first love. They lost a football game that dominated for 85% of the game. They’ll go to work, get ready for the next game, and give it everything they have on the field. But the coaches are losing the locker room! Moral is destroyed! Maybe… but the moral in that locker room has already been as low as it could possibly get. They have their future qb and a new life to the entire franchise. The players are believing in each other now with Skattebo and Dart. The o-line actually looks good. The defense has some dominant pass rushers. This Giants team is good and that’s the bottom line.
I’ll take the full TD against Philly and a little bit on the ML. No good reason for the Eagles to be a 7-7.5 point favorite in this divisional matchup. I’ll eat my words if I’m wrong, but I think this one comes down to the wire and Philly potentially goes into the bye with another loss.
Definitely not a great spot for the Giants I’ll give you that. I don’t see how it’s that much better for Philly though. Where you lost me is Nick Siriani is a top 3 coach? Honestly I’ve always thought he was a complete jackass. Matter of fact I’ve seen him make in-game decisions that are equally as bad as what Daboll does. The other coaches might be good, the players are certainly outstanding, but Siriani is not the reason why this team won a championship. There were multiple points in his career where the murmurs were that Siriani had to go…
@brn2loslive2win
Well, Sirianni has a career record of 53-22 71%. That makes him pretty good.
Only coaches with a better career winning %: Lombardi, Allen & Madden. Pretty good company.
The Philadelphia fan base wants everyone fired every year, lol.
P.S. no one comes close to Daboll. and he acts like a child on the sidelines, as well. But he does know how to develop QB's He worked with Hurts in Alabama.
