Giants' Rookie Duo Stuns Eagles 34-17 on Thursday Night

Philadelphia's two-game slide spotlights lingering offensive inconsistency alongside thin defensive depth despite this week's players-only check-in.

Overview

  • Jaxson Dart totaled 195 passing yards with a touchdown and added 58 rushing yards and a score, while Cam Skattebo ran for 98 yards and three touchdowns as the rookies combined for five TDs.
  • New York dominated key situations by converting 11 of 16 third downs, finishing 4-for-4 in the red zone, and posting a 172-73 rushing advantage.
  • The Eagles dropped to 4-2 with a second straight defeat as their second-half drives went punt, punt, punt, interception and fumble, and they finished 1-for-9 on third down.
  • Philadelphia’s defense was depleted with Jalen Carter inactive due to a heel injury and Quinyon Mitchell exiting with a hamstring issue, contributing to a limited pass rush.
  • Team dynamics stayed under scrutiny as Jalen Hurts acknowledged a private meeting with A.J. Brown and Saquon Barkley that Brown publicly downplayed, while players pointed to predictable play-calling.
