An exciting divisional rivalry game awaits us in Week 14 of the NFL on Sunday, December 11, and here you can take a look at the best Eagles vs. Giants betting pick and odds.
New York is looking for the first win in four games when they host Philadelphia at MetLife Stadium. The Eagles are 7-point favorites on Wynnbet NY Sportsbook, while the total is set at 45.5 points. These NFC East foes faced twice last year, and each time the home team got a win.
Eagles still have the best record in the NFL
The Philadelphia Eagles (11-1-0, 7-5-0 Betting ATS) bounced back from their first defeat of the season against the Washington Commanders with three consecutive wins over Indianapolis, Green Bay, and Tennessee. The Eagles preserved their best record in the entire NFL after displaying one of their best defensive performances of the year, allowing only ten points to the Titans in a 35-10 home victory. Philadelphia was much better in total yards (453-209) and first downs (26-11).
Jalen Hurts completed 29 of 39 passes for 380 yards and three touchdowns. He also added a rushing touchdown. While the run offense didn’t work well (Miles Sanders had 24 yards and a TD on ten carries), the Eagles destroyed the Titans through the air. A.J. Brown was impressive with 119 yards and two touchdowns on eight receptions, while DeVonta Smith chipped in 102 yards and a score on five catches. Philly registered six sacks in this win; Josh Sweat was credited with two, while Nakobe Dean and T.J. Edwards led the team with six tackles apiece.
DE Robert Quinn (knee) and DE Derek Barnett (ACL) are out for the season. LB Shaun Bradley (hamstring) and WR Quez Watkins (shoulder) are questionable to play against the Giants on Sunday.
Giants played a tie with the Commanders
The New York Giants (7-4-1, 9-3-0 ATS) managed to avoid the third loss in a row but played a 20-20 tie with the divisional rivals Washington Commanders at home. It was the Giant’s first tie since 1997 when they also played against Washington (7-7). New York had a 20-13 lead in the fourth quarter, but the visitors scored a game-tying touchdown in the final two minutes. Graham Gano had an opportunity to win it for the Giants, but his 58-yard field goal in overtime fell short.
Daniel Jones completed 25 of 31 passes for 200 yards and a touchdown. He led the Giants in rushing yards with 71 on 12 carries, while Saquon Barkley had 63 yards and a TD on 18 attempts. Jones connected with Isaiah Hodgins in the end zone, while Darius Slayton posted a team-high 90 receiving yards on six receptions. New York recorded five sacks in this game; Julian Love was rock-solid defensively with a game-high 12 tackles.
WR Sterling Shepard (ACL), CB Aaron Robinson (knee), and WR Wan’Dale Robinson (knee) are out indefinitely. DE Leonard Williams (neck), CB Adoree’ Jackson (knee), WR Kenny Golladay (illness), G Shane Lemieux (toe), and G Joshua Ezeudu (neck) are questionable to feature on Sunday against the Eagles.
Trends:
Philadelphia:
1-6 ATS in the last seven road games
1-7 ATS in the last eight games after accumulating less than 90 yards rushing in their previous game
New York:
7-2 ATS in the last nine games overall
4-1 ATS in the last five home games
5-0 ATS in the last five games after allowing more than 150 yards rushing in their previous game
Philadelphia Eagles vs. New York Giants Pick
It’s going to be hard for the Giants to stop the second-best offense in the NFL that is scoring 28.2 points per game, but this is a divisional rivalry tilt and they are playing at home. Given they are chasing a playoff spot, the Giants must bring on their A-game here.
New York will likely focus on the running, not only because it is their preferred way to attack, but also because Philly has the best pass defense in the league that is allowing only 178.5 yards per contest. Barkley and Jones have combined for 1,500+ rushing yards so far, and I expect them to hurt the Eagles here. I am not saying the Giants will win, but they should cover and make it a tight affair.
Pick: Take the Giants at +7.5 (-120)
The Total
While they are solid against the pass, the Giants are quite lenient defensively when it comes to the run. Philadelphia has the 5th best run offense in the league that is averaging 154.6 yards per game. The Giants are allowing 141.1 ypg to the opposing runners, so I expect to see a lot of rushing attempts from both teams in this one. Under is 5-2 in the last seven H2H meetings; Under is 5-2 in the Eagles’ previous seven road games, while Under is 15-4-2 in the Giants’ last 21 games following an ATS win.
Pick: Go Under 47.5 points (-133)
