The Eagles got four turnovers off a hapless Washington team last weekend and still managed to leave with only 10-point win. The Giants defensive line has struggled in the past two weeks, but will need to regain its former glory to take this one on the road. Giants.

I can't see the Giants losing this one. The Eagles wins have come against sub-par competition and the Giants losses were against a very good Saints team, and a solid Cardinals team. I would take the Giants in a blowout if this were in NJ, but since it is at the Linc, i'll go with the G Men by a touchdown.

toss up. Iggles O Line is horrible right now and extremly soft.I think we overrate the Giants and think this is a close game that will go either way. In all likelihood no Bwest but that is nothing new and McNabb has gone back to his old ways of not being accurate short to mid range. I do not think the Giants secondary is good I dont care about rankings they can be beat over the top. Ellie is hurting still and it has shown the last couple weeks. The Iggles wild dog offense sucks and I wish they would just scrap it and as I said the Oline is very weak right now.The line is dead on here as a pick. I will be there and would not touch it.

Considering the Eagles don't run the ball (even when healthy), this comes down to how much time McNabb will have to pass....if he is running for his life the entire game, this will be close. On the same token, do the Giants have any receivers to really scare the Eagles? I see the Eagles stuffing the box and forcing Eli to beat them, which he won't....in a defensive slugfest with over 10+ sacks combined, I see a 17-14 type of game, too close to call but one for the home team. I still wouldn't touch this game with a ten foot pole, however....

i must be seeing something that others aren't. im under the impression that the giants right now are a better team all around. after 2 embarassing losses this is a must win for new york against an overrated eagles squad before they head off into the bye. they have had that picture of mcnabb making the "phone call "on their sidelines all year. even though they don't run the ball too often, having westbrook on the field draws a LOT of attention from the giants D. not having him is a huge blow to the eagles in this game imo.

Defensive game with giants coming out on top

I dunno, I just don't buy the "must win because we lost two in a row" style mentality, especially against an Eagles team at home who has plenty of motivation to play well also. Outside of the Saints game, the Eagles defense has been very impressive, and the Giants dont seem to have that big play capability right now against a tough defense. With the city of Philly in a frenzy from the World Series, I feel the Giants will be walking into a hornets nest. They will have the San Diego game at home the following week before the bye to get better.

not that big a blow anymore he has barely been a part of the offense this year and has obv lost a step. Dont hang ur bet on the bwest angle. I agree I think the Iggles are vastly overrated and after last week I think the Giants are also. U maybe right but no way I touch this game. I will just go down tailgate watch the game then try to recover for the Phils
