Oddsmakers currently have the Eagles listed as 3½-point favorites versus the Giants, while the game’s total is sitting at 50.
Philadelphia finally managed to get its ground game untracked in the rout of New Orleans as offseason acquisitions DeMarco Murray and Ryan Mathews each scored a touchdown while rushing for 83 and 73 yards, respectively. Bradford had his second-highest output of the season with 333 yards passing to go along with a pair of TDs, but he also showed his penchant for making the costly mistake by getting intercepted twice in the red zone. The Eagles have also been vulnerable through the air, ranking 26th in the league at 279.6 yards permitted, but they have six interceptions and eight forced fumbles.
In their last action, Philadelphia was a 39-17 winner at home against the Saints. They covered the -6.5-point spread as favorites, while the combined score (56) was profitable news for OVER bettors.
Team record: 2-3 SU,2-3 ATS
Philadelphia is 3-6 ATS in its last 9 games
Philadelphia is 3-6 SU in its last 9 games
The total has gone UNDER in 4 of Philadelphia’s last 5 games
The biggest concern for the Giants is the health of stud wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr., who did not practice Thursday or Friday due to a hamstring injury sustained in last week’s victory. Rueben Randle will return from his own hamstring injury and provide a familiar target for Manning, who threw for 441 yards and three touchdowns while setting a franchise record with 41 completions. Middle linebacker Jon Beason suffered a concussion last week but practiced on a limited basis Friday for a defense that ranks No. 2 against the run (80.6 yards) and dead last against the pass (304.2).
New York was a 30-27 winner in its last match at home against the 49ers. They failed to cover the -7.5-point spread as favorites, while the total score of 57 sent OVER bettors to the payout window.
Team record: 3-2 SU,3-2 ATS
Current Streak: won 3 straight games.
NY Giants is 6-3 ATS in its last 9 games
NY Giants is 6-3 SU in its last 9 games
