It's not normally a wise move to lay a lot of points in divisional matchups, where the games tend to be close. There are exceptions to every rule though, and I think Philly rolls here. The Eagles are more talented and will be looking to redeem themselves after playing their worst game of the year in a loss in N.J. three weeks ago -- their only loss of the season to a team with a losing record. The Giants will likely be starting a QB who was on the Bills' practice squad earlier this month. And although Jake Fromm gave them a bit of a spark in mop-up duty last week, he's very likely to struggle in his first NFL start against a team that has prepared for him. Lay the points.
I realize the Giants have lost three straight, and the Eagles have won four of their last five. But Philly's only loss in that stretch came to New York in Week 12. And these rivals usually play close contests. Ten of the last 14 games in the series have been one-score games. This matchup will be close. Give me New York.
