Eagles-Giants On Thursday Night: Philadelphia Favored as New York Turns to Rookie QB

Betting markets make Philadelphia a touchdown favorite over a shorthanded New York team starting Jaxson Dart.

Overview

  • Kickoff is 8:15 p.m. ET at MetLife Stadium, with the national broadcast on Amazon Prime Video and local simulcasts on WNYW Fox 5 (NY) and Fox 29 (Philadelphia).
  • Sportsbooks list the Eagles around -7.5 with a total near 40.5, and expert panels plus models such as Dimers give Philadelphia a strong win probability (about 77%).
  • New York’s receiving corps is thin with Darius Slayton ruled out and Malik Nabers already out for the season; RB Tyrone Tracy Jr. returns after a shoulder injury.
  • Philadelphia enters 4-1 after a 21-17 loss to Denver, with offensive concerns highlighted by a sluggish run game, Saquon Barkley’s knee soreness and reduced production, and LG Landon Dickerson’s ankle injury as C Cam Jurgens works back from back surgery.
  • The Giants are 1-4 with mounting self-inflicted issues, including five turnovers in last week’s loss, league-leading penalty yards, a minus-5 turnover differential, and increased scrutiny on head coach Brian Daboll.
