Eagles talk: Predicting every NFC East game of 2019’s NFL schedule
Week 17:
Eagles at Giants, Sunday, December 29th at 1 PM EST, MetLife Stadium
At this point, the Giants have finally learned what most of us have known for a while. The best quarterback on their roster is now Daniel Jones. After a great career but a disappointing Giants season, Jones will get the ball late and the Giants will sit Manning down the stretch.
Jones will prove that he is, indeed, the guy to lead them into the future, but with a lack of weapons and a deeper and more experienced Eagles roster on the other side, Jones takes the loss here, whether that loss is against Carson Wentz or Nate Sudfeld because Philly’s giving Wentz some time off with the playoffs approaching.
Prediction: Eagles 27, Giants 17
Projected team records: Eagles (12-4), Cowboys (10-6), Redskins (5-11), Giants (6-10)
Projected divisional records: Eagles (5-1), Cowboys (5-1), Redskins (1-5), Giants (1-5)
