Pre-Game:
What an outstanding Sunday Night Football game this is going to be with the Eagles vs Giants. As you notice from the top betting websites, this is predicted to be a very close game. The Eagles and Giants are battling for top position in the NFC East division, along with the Cowboys, in the tightest divisional race in the NFL. Philadelphia and Dallas are 8-4, with the Giants one game back at 7-5. This game is crucial for both teams in fighting for playoff rights.
Philadelphia Eagles:
The Eagles have been playing pretty well this year and consistent for the most part. Last week against the Falcons, Philadelphia played phenomenal beating them 34-7 in Atlanta. The Eagles best stat, and probably most important stat of the Big 8 as I call them, is they are ranked #6 in the NFL in points per game with an average of 27.2 points. In my opinion, that is why Philadelphia is tied with Dallas at the top of their division because they are putting up 27+ points per game. Michael Vick had a great game against his former team last week, and if the Eagles can keep utilizing Vick in a smart way they will be that much more difficult to stop.
New York Giants:
The New York Giants have been playing extremely inconsistent in my book, and their fans have been on a rollercoaster ride with them. Before the season, I did predict the Giants making the playoffs and I want to stick by that prediction but they need to play more consistent football if they want to play in the post season. The Giants did play a solid game last week against the Cowboys in New York, beating them 31-24. To me, that game looked like the Giants in the start of the season and how they should be playing with all the talent on their team. The main thing I am worried about regarding the Giants is the amount of points their opposing teams are putting up. New York’s defense is allowing 23.8 points per game which ranks them #25 in the entire league. In all other 7 major categories they are ranked no worse than 12th. The Giants defense needs to do whatever it takes to not allow so many points being put up against them.
Philadelphia Eagles vs New York Giants Prediction:
I predict this being another great Sunday Night Football game, especially since it’s being played in New York. These two teams hate each other and will be clawing their way through this game to be placed on the top of their division. If the Giants win and the Cowboys lose to the Chargers, which could easily happen, there would be a 3-way tie for first in the NFC East division with all teams having an 8-5 record. That just goes to show you how much is riding on this game. I do predict this game being very close just at the top betting websites are showing, and I am going to have to give the home field team the slight advantage in this game. These two teams match up very close on all aspects, and I will be giving the Giants the slight favored edge. Giants win, beat point spread in a high scoring offensive showdown.
