Giants Upend Eagles 34-17 on Thursday Night

The result ended New York's eight-game NFC East skid, sharpening questions about Philadelphia's sputtering offense after consecutive defeats.

Overview

  • Rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart went 17-of-25 for 195 yards with a touchdown and added 58 rushing yards, opening the scoring on a 20-yard run.
  • Rookie running back Cam Skattebo carried 19 times for 98 yards and three touchdowns and caught two passes for 12 yards.
  • New York's defense logged three sacks of Jalen Hurts—two by Brian Burns—limited the Eagles to 73 rushing yards, and saw Cor'Dale Flott intercept Hurts to set up the clinching score.
  • Philadelphia fell to 4-2 with a second straight loss after Denver, drawing heightened scrutiny of an offense described as stagnant.
  • The Giants moved to 2-4 and, after snapping their divisional slide, face Denver on Oct. 19 before an Oct. 26 rematch with Philadelphia.
