This is a 10* NFC EAST GAME OF THE YEAR on the New York Giants.
For a number of different reasons, I think the home side will find a way to get the job done at the end of the afternoon, pulling away down the stretch for a comfortable ATS cover. Philadelphia is out of the playoff picture after last week's setback, making this a classic letdown spot for the visitors. Now also throw in the fact that the Giants play with revenge here and enter on a three-game win skein, there's no question in my opinion that we're getting fantastic line value today, the motivational and situational factors working in favor of the home side are as about as strong as you could possibly hope to ask for. Philadelphia has lost three straight and has nothing left to play for here. Many of the 6-9 Giants though are playing for their jobs next year, New York is looking for one last big effort, a top draft position is out of the question. Just listen to Eagles' TE Zach Hertz: "It's very frustrating to us to control our destiny when we are 9-3 and to have this happen," Ertz lamented earlier in the week. "We're very disappointed. Ultimately, it falls on the players. We didn't execute the game, either of the three games. It's very disheartening." That sounds like a man who has given up on the season. QB Mark Sanchez looked decent at times this season, but a closer look reveals some more glaring weaknesses, the oft-maligned pivot has 14 turnovers in eight games. New York could care less about the Eagles' issues though, this is a team clearly driven right now to finish the season strong, the late surge has likely saved coach Tom Coughlin's job. Eli Manning and Odell Beckham Jr. were on the same page in last week's 37-27 win at St. Louis, the young receiver would finish with 148 yards and two scores on eight catches. New York would lose 27-0 in the first game vs. Philadelphia: "Sure, we have something to prove," right tackle Justin Pugh said. "We didn't score at all the first time." Manning was particularly effective last week, he was 25 of 35 for 391 yards and three TD's with no INT's and his 148.8 rating was the highest of his career (also note that Manning needs just one more win for 100 victories for his career). In my opinion, Sanchez will have to have the game of his career for Philadelphia to score the upset and I simply don't see that happening, play on NEW YORK.
