The Eagles (2-3) go to North Jersey to face the Giants (1-4) at MetLife Stadium.
With one win, the Eagles would take first place in the NFC East.
We all badly chose the Eagles to defeat the Vikings last week.

The Eagles are fortunate to be in a division where they will have a chance to get together and still be in the middle of a playoff hunt once they do. I see a team losing games because it plays a stupid, unruly, incoherent football, but still fighting, fighting and staying attentive. You are what you are and the Eagles are 2 or 3, but I also have the feeling that they have mediocre results. They are a good team that plays badly. Not a terrible team. So they have a chance to fix this problem and get back into the mix, and I'm waiting for them to start this process at Meadowlands on Thursday night.
Weird things happen in a few weeks, so anything is possible, but I think the defense plays well against the Giants. The offense resumes its game and the Eagles escape East Rutherford with a win. I'm looking for three takeaways, a big game from Nelson Agholor and a 29-27 win that will bring the Eagles back to .500.

Good news, Eagles fans. I choose the giants in this one. That's good news because, as bad as the Eagles have been this season, I've been even harder to predict their games.
Here is my reasoning: Of course, the Eagles have had the number of the Giants in recent years, but even last season, when the Eagles were an excellent team, they did not crush the Giants. These teams play tight games. It took a field goal of 61 yards in the first game and the Giants were at a game of victory in the second game last year. The Eagles won these types of games in 2017; in 2018, they seem to lose them. Do not like the fact that they are on the road (even if it's close) for a short week. It's a bit like I do not trust the Eagles to win.

It's bad enough that the Eagles are on a two-game losing streak, but have now lost running back Jay Ajayi for the season. So where does their inconsistent racing game go from here? Who knows. The offensive line was a disappointment to protect Carson Wentz, who was sacked 12 times and hit at least 27 times on his three starts.
As for the Giants, they had more than their share of problems and it starts with a porous offensive line that can not open holes for Rookie RB Saquon Barkley. Defensively, the G-Men do not generate a lot of hype, tied for the last in the league with six sacks. It should be a game that Wentz has time to launch and succeed in big passing games since New York has given 18 passes of 20 yards or more.
That said, I do not feel very good about the Eagles' current position as a team. The Giants are ticked off after giving up a win on the road to Carolina due to a 63-yard placement. They are at home in the national spotlight and a win could be the spark they need in a mediocre NFC East. A few weeks ago, I would not have thought it would be possible, but given the evolution of the Eagles in recent weeks, I do not trust them. I hope I'm wrong.

It's hard to trust the Eagles because of the way they play. Turns of killers, failed missions, silly penalties, a lack of discipline, the complete game book "How to lose in the NFL", that is the story of the season of the Eagles up to the end of the season. now.
For the third time in four weeks, they will face a former offensive assistant. It was first Frank Reich (Colts), then John DeFilippo (Vikings), and it is now Pat Shurmur, head coach of the Giants. Does this give you a break? This should be the case only because the Eagles offense seems to be misplaced, scoring no more than 23 points in any game of the season. The game decisions and decisions at stake on Sunday were disturbing to say the least.
The defending champions have one thing for them and that is their division. The NFC is stinking, so if she's busy doing business there, she'll be back in the playoffs. It starts with beating the giants.
Eagles 24-20
Andrew Kulp (2-3)
I've pretty much finished the Eagles if they lose this one. Of course, people who are smarter than me are probably already here, but they are the Giants. I can not think of a compelling reason to take the Giants over the Eagles, except that the Eagles could also be a bad team. I do not think they're so bad though. They can not be … can they?

Being 1-4 in these predictions is embarrassing, but so are Barrett and Seth! This team has been incredibly difficult to project from week to week.
This seems to be the easiest game prediction of the season so far. Giants are a mess. Bad O-line, drama QB / WR, the horrors of Eli Manning.
I think Saquon Barkley will be the first to do some real damage to the Eagles in 2018, but I'm also expecting the Birds to start fast and score more than 3 touchdowns per game.
Should be another monstrous performance for Zach Ertz. The Giants have been decent against tight ends this season, but have allowed 81 receptions for 965 yards and 13 touchdowns last year.
We also feel the first special defensive or special teams of the season for the Eagles.
