Philadelphia haven’t played in primetime on Thursday since their 29-17 victory over the Texans in 2022. The Eagles love the early-week game with a 21-7 record all-time and they need to channel that this week and bounce back on what has been a slowish start to the season on offence. 

The Giants are improving and have some good things going with their rookies Jaxson Dart and Cam Skattebo but the Eagles will get it right this week, block out the noise from around the league and get back to their formula, which is Saquon and the run game. 

A quiet start for Eagles running Back will be forgotten after this week with Barkley projected and tipped to bust up the Giants run defence and go over his 85.5 rushing total. A number he has only exceeded once this year. 

The TushPush will be back in play and Jalen Hurts will not only be a menace from the one-yard line but whenever the Eagles are in the red zone. Look out for one or even two rushing touchdowns from the Philly QB.

  • Philadelphia have won 7 of the last 8 games against New York, covering the 7.5-point line in 5 of the 7 wins. 
  • Saquon Barkley rushed for 176 yards from 17 carries last season against the Giants.
  • The Giants rush defence is ranked 26th, allowing an average of 140 rushing yards to their opposition per game.  
  • Jalen Hurts has 4 rushing touchdowns this season

Philadelphia Eagles Form


The defending champion Eagles dropped their first game of the season in worrying fashion, throwing away a 17-3 fourth quarter lead to the Denver Broncos, getting blanked in the final quarter with Denver closing out the match with 18 unanswered points. 

What is more concerning than the loss is the lack of production on offence especially the drastic form swing of their run game with Offensive Player of the Year Saquon Barkley rushing just 6 times in the loss to the Broncos. After the first 5 games of the season, Barkley has rushed for just 267 yards, that is 215 yards less than he had after the first five starts as an Eagle last season. 

It isn’t just Barkley’s lack of production though with the whole offence ranked 30th in the NFL in total yards gained. The Eagles average of 261.6 yards per game is 67.4 yards less than the league average.

New York Giants Form


Look, the New York Giants certainly have something in Jaxson Dart and the decision to bench Russell Wilson was the right one in my opinion, but with a rookie quarterback you get first year pro problems.

The Ole Miss prodigy got his first win as a starter against the Chargers, but his second start was a more realistic performance. Dart is just the third ever quarterback to rush for over 50 yards in his first two starts in the NFL, however, in the Giants 26-14 loss he threw two picks and had a fumble and the Saints took advantage scoring 23 unanswered points.

Cam Skattebo is also a keeper, averaging 66 yards rushing in his last 3 starts and has a couple of touchdowns in his rookie season. He is also proving to be a threat in the air as well with 6 receptions in 2 of his last 3 games.
