Eagles Vs. Giants

By 11:30PM Sunday night, we should have a much clearer picture of where the Eagles stand in NFC race. With a win against the 7-1 Giants, the Eagles can solidify themselves as legitimate Super Bowl contenders. A loss, while not season-killing, may reveal this team just isn't among the top tier of the NFC.

For the Eagles to win this game, they must stop the run and force Eli to throw the ball. Most of the Giants' success this season has come from its stellar running game led by Brandon Jacobs. If the Eagles can at least contain Jacobs and make Eli throw, the Birds stand a pretty good chance in this game. Of course, the easiest way to accomplish this is to jump to a early lead and make the Giants play catch up all night.

The line has the Eagles favored by 3 and I'm pretty comfortable with that. If you ask me, the Eagles are a good bet in this one. I'll take the Birds 20-16.
