The New York Giants (3-13) visit the playoff-bound Philadelphia Eagles (13-3). Philadelphia head coach Nick Sirianni is resting his stars. The Giants might have sabotaged their chance at the first overall pick with their Week 17 win over Indianapolis. Our Giants vs Eagles prediction is for the underdog Giants to cover the 3-point spread.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Head-to-head, the Eagles lead with a record of 95-89-2.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Giants Look Toward the Offseason<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Giants will still have a very high pick in the 2025 NFL<\/a> Draft, but it will not be the first overall pick. This is not catastrophic as there is no consensus, no-brainer first pick in the coming draft. Still, they limited their options with their win over the Colts. If it’s any consolation, they knocked Indy out of playoff contention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

New York’s season has been a disaster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That could be construed as a citywide assessment considering that the Jets have been a bigger mess than the Giants \u2014 no small feat. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In advance of Wild Card weekend, the Eagles are sitting their best players. That gives the Giants a chance and the odds reflect it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

At least they won’t have a front-row seat watching their former number two overall pick and 2024 castoff Saquon Barkley break Eric Dickerson’s rushing record against them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Black Monday looms, but all signs point to general manager Joe Schoen and head coach Brian Daboll being given another year. If Barkley broke the record against them, maybe John Mara might react differently given how the brain trust pushed the possible MVP out the door and did so in front of the Hard Knocks cameras. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

They can relive it over and over!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

#Giants<\/a> exec Tim McDonnell on possibly losing Saquon Barkley:

\u201cWe lose Saquon, what\u2019s our identity gonna be?\u201d

GM Joe Schoen: \u201cWe\u2019ve gotta upgrade the offensive line, and you\u2019re paying Daniel Jones $40M. It\u2019s not to hand the ball off to a $12M back.\u201dpic.twitter.com\/8XLdhpgM8K<\/a> https:\/\/t.co\/GbufUeZZWV<\/a><\/p>— Ari Meirov (@MySportsUpdate) July 3, 2024<\/a><\/blockquote>
