This is a great spot for the Eagles back at home from playing two difficult back to back road games, to smash the Giants and get right. Despite all the off field criticism and drama in the last week with this team, they will put that aside and win and cover this divisional game. They know they can beat the Giants and have done so in the last four straight games by healthy margins too as this team has their number. This teams loves to beat down on the weak teams and this is the perfect spot to get right again before the playoff season starts in front of a national audience on Christmas Day. This will be QB De Vito's second consecutive road game, traveling to a hostile environment on Christmas Day, this does not bode well for him and the team. They were only able to muster up 6 points last week against a hit and miss Saints team, and now they are expected to put up points with one of the top teams in the league. This seems like a huge hurdle to climb because when the Giants have played a top team this season they lost by more than 2 TD's and it's hard to see where the motivation is with the Giants being eliminated from the playoffs, despite this being a divisional matchup. The good news is the Eagles defense has improved once they made the switch to Matt Patricia as they didn't give up as many points in last weeks game. Now they have another week of practice and they are at home so they should be able to continue the defensive improvements. QB Hurts was sick these past few weeks so he seems to be healthy coming into this game. Expect him to have a big game too and this team will respond to the criticism and the losses this week as they do not want to lose another game.
