The New York Giants (4-2-1) aim to maintain their NFC East lead when they visit the Philadelphia Eagles (2-6) at Lincoln Financial Field on Sunday at 1 p.m. ET. The Eagles have lost six straight games as injuries have decimated their roster, while the Giants have won four of their last five to build a cushion over the 3-5 Dallas Cowboys.
DraftKings Sportsbook lists New York as a 2.5-point road favorite with an Over/Under of 37.5 points. The Giants' offense, now 11th in total yards (346 ypg), has been sparked by quarterback J.J. McCarthy, who has thrown for 495 yards in his two starts and led a 27-21 overtime win over the Texans. Running back Cam Skattebo rushed for 124 yards in that game, and receiver Malik Nabers has topped 100 receiving yards in four consecutive games. Tight end Isiah Likely has 41 catches for 395 yards and five touchdowns this season.
Philadelphia's offense ranks last in the NFL (265.3 ypg) and 30th in scoring (17.1 ppg). Quarterback Jalen Hurts is out for the season, and Joe Milton will make his fourth start. Milton has two touchdown passes and two interceptions while being sacked 10 times in three games. Star running back Saquon Barkley is not at full health, averaging 4.9 yards per carry on just nine attempts per game, and receivers DeVonta Smith and Dontayvion Wicks are questionable. The Eagles' defense allows 367.3 yards (27th) and 25.3 points (21st) per game.
New York is 5-2 against the spread this season, covering in two of three road games. Philadelphia is 1-7 ATS, with its only cover coming in a 19-17 loss to the Jaguars in London. The SportsLine Projection Model, which has returned over $5,000 for $100 players on top-rated NFL picks since 2024, projects the Eagles to cover the spread in 52% of simulations and win outright in 47% as plus-money underdogs. The model's best bet for the game is Eagles +3.
