NY Giants vs Philadelphia Eagles Prediction
The Philadelphia Eagles are the more talented team and are as healthy as they’ve been all year. The Giants are limited offensively, especially without Nabers. On paper, the Eagles should win this game comfortably. The problem is the Eagles have underachieved up to this point and barely beat the Browns last week. The Eagles are poorly coached, hit or miss defensively, and they’ve failed to cover 8 of their last 10 games. Also, the underdog has covered 6 of the last 9 games between the Eagles and Giants. The Giants are 6-2-1 ATS in their last 9 games as a home underdog. Give me the points, as I just don’t believe the Eagles are good.
