The Philadelphia Eagles will face the Washington Commanders in the NFC Championship Game on Sunday — a prospect that not only sticks in the craw of Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones but that of New York Giants co-owner John Mara as well.
While the Giants are sitting home and contemplating their future after a 3-14 season, their two division rivals are vying for a spot in the Super Bowl.
The irony is that both the Eagles and Commanders achieved their recent success at the expense of the Giants. The Eagles added running back Saquon Barkley, who the Giants chose not...
Either that, or let them sit and learn before seeing the field
As the New York Giants and their fans burn for (seeming) eternity in quarterback hell, watching Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels carve up the Detroit Lions defense to reach the NFC Championship Game, “How can we get one of those?” is the question of the day. It’s been the question for a better part of a decade now.
The team definitely needs a bridge quarterback for the 2025 season, but the bigger question is where to find someone younger and with more potential for the long term in...
The New York Giants opened the year hopeful that they had narrowed the gap in the NFC East and would celebrate their 100th season with a return to the playoffs.
What transpired is the exact opposite of that.
The Giants went winless in the NFC East for the first time in franchise history. They won only a single home game and have been forced to sit idly by while their former coaches and players enjoy playoff success.
It has become a nightmare of epic proportions.
Over the weekend, the Washington Commanders and Philadelphia Eagles won their respective contests to set...
The New Orleans Saints requested and were granted permission to interview New York Giants offensive coordinator Mike Kafka for their vacant head coaching position in early January.
On Tuesday, the Saints will fly in and host Kafka for his second interview with the team.

New York Giants headlines for Monday
Good morning, New York Giants fans!
The Philadelphia Eagles will host the NFC Championship Game thanks to a historical performance by running back Saquon Barkley, who exploded for 232 total yards and two touchdowns on Sunday.
Barkley had back-breaking runs of 62 yards and 78 yards to put the game on ice, both literally and figuratively. And several of his former New York Giants teammates were on hand cheering for their long-time rivals.
It was a tough watch for Giants fans, who could do nothing but marvel at the team’s former captain and offensive superstar. He’s doing for the Eagles what they always wished for him...
Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley went off for more than 230 yards from scrimmage on Sunday, including two touchdown runs of 62 yards or more.
The historical performance helped propel the Eagles to a 28-22 victory over the Los Angeles Rams and an NFC Championship showdown with the Washington Commanders.
It was a nightmarish image for New York Giants co-owner John Mara and the team’s fans, but a moment of celebration for several former Giants.
Quarterback Daniel Jones and wide receiver Sterling Shepard joined Barkley’s family in their booth and cheered on their good friend and long-time rivals.

Is Swinson an under-the-radar answer for the Giants?
The New York Giants spent the first half of 2025 among the sack leaders of the NFL, but at the same time they fielded one of the league’s worst run defenses.
That improved considerably in the second half of the season, but it was still a lingering issue. The team could also have depth concerns along the defensive front with Azeez Ojulari entering unrestricted free agency.
LSU edge defender (and Oregon transfer) Bradyn Swinson isn’t could prove to be a great value add for a team like the Giants.
Prospect: Bradyn Swinson...
Who will advance to their conference title games?
The Divisional Round of the 2025 NFL Playoffs concludes Sunday with a doubleheader. Here is all of your viewing, streaming, listening and wagering information.
The Los Angeles Rams tied a playoff record with nine sacks in their Wild Card victory over Minnesota while Philadelphia defeated Green Bay for its first Wild Card win since 2018. With a win, the Eagles would advance to the NFC Championship for the second time in three seasons, while the Rams can...
Return man was a dynamic player for the Giants in 2024
When the New York Giants lost return man/backup wide receiver Gunner Olszewski to a groin injury while warming up for the season-opening game against the Minnesota Vikings, they needed to find a new returner. They were fortunate Ihmir Smith-Marsette was available.
Smith-Marsette had a good season, averaging 34.6 yards on 11 kickoff returns, including a 100-yard touchdown, and 7.9 yards on 29 punt returns.
Smith-Marsette, who will be 26 next season, can be an unrestricted free agent. Should the Giants try to bring him back?
Reasons to keep Smith-Marsette...
What will the Giants do with Kayvon Thibodeaux and Evan Neal?
With the NFL regular season now ended and Pro Bowl selections made, it is possible to anticipate an important decision almost every general manager has to make: Whether to exercise the fifth-year option on your first round draft pick(s). The Pro Bowl has never had the “juice” of the Major League Baseball All-Star Game, which at one time was a truly competitive game played for pride between the two leagues which otherwise never met except in the World Series. Now, there isn’t even an actual Pro Bowl game anymore,...
