New York Giants
I thought the New York Giants’ victory over the Chargers a couple of Sundays ago was pretty uplifting after their dispiriting start to the 2025 season. Nothing beats a victory over a division rival who has dominated the Giants for a decade or more, though. Even more, nothing beats a game when your team is just running out the last five minutes of the game clock on the way to that victory. I think the last time that happened was the final game of 2023, by coincidence the last time the Giants beat the Philadelphia Eagles before last night. I’d...

Few fans of the New York Giants still had faith in their team after the collapse to the (then) 0-4 New Orleans Saints in Week 5.
Thanks to the quick turnaround between that game and the Giants’ meeting with the Philadelphia Eagles on Thursday Night Football, we didn’t ask a specific question in our weekly fan survey. However, we did run the regular confidence poll and it bore out just how disappointed fans were in their team… At least up until about 11pm Thursday night.
Yes, less than 1 in 4 fans thought the Giants are headed in the right...

Even in the aftermath of a resounding win, there has to be a touch of grey in the New York Giants silver lining.
The NFL has initiated a review of how the Giants applied the NFL’s concussion protocol with respect to quarterback Jaxson Dart.
In particular, the review seems to stem from Giants’ head coach Brian Daboll and RB Cam Skattebo ducking into the blue medical tent while Dart was undergoing the protocol.
As Dan Duggan of The Athletic explained at the time, the local media was taken on a tour of the facilities and explicitly told that coaches aren’t...

Wooooooooooooo!
The New York Giants might have something here.
The Giants have searched for years to try and find the right people and players to lead them out of the morass they have been in for more than a decade and bring the franchise back to the prominent place a four-time Super Bowl champion and an original NFL franchise should have.
They have been through three GMs, nearly a half-dozen head coaches and multiple roster rebuilds while only having fleeting, occasional, success.
In rookies Jaxson Dart and Cam Skattebo the Giants might — finally — have the players not only...

Good morning, New York Giants fans!
Other Giant observations ------------------------...

I entered this game not considering a New York Giants victory over the Philadelphia Eagles as a possible outcome. That’s sad, because I do feel that the Giants’ talent has been upgraded this season, while the Eagles’ has either diminished a little, or been out of sync thus far, or some of both. Thus my pre-game thinking for this post focused on a few smaller questions:

Let’s get right to the ‘Kudos and Wet Willies’ from the New York Giants’ stunning 34-17 victory over the Philadelphia Eagles on Thursday night.
Cam Skattebo — The rookie running back powered his way to 98 yards and three touchdowns on 19 carries. Skattebo, a battering ram of a runner, imposed his will on the Eagles. He had a 4-yard touchdown run and two 1-yard scoring runs. Perhaps the only think he did wrong was commit a taunting penalty late in the game after a pass reception for a first down.
Cor’Dale Flott — The Flott-Deonte...

Thursday’s 34-17 victory was a statement win for the New York Giants against a Philadelphia Eagles’ team that has recently dominated the matchup. New York found ample energy with their dynamic duo of rookies, Jaxson Dart and Cam Skattebo. New York turned the football over five times against the Saints in Week 5. They protected the football four days later against the Eagles and won the turnover battle, 2-0. Dane Belton punched the football out of the grasp of A.J. Dillon and Cor’Dale Flott picked off Jalen Hurts when the game was still within reach.
The Giants won the turnover...

The New York Giants put together their most complete performance of the season on Thursday, knocking off the Philadelphia Eagles 34-17 at MetLife Stadium.
Rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart continued to impress running and throwing for touchdowns as the Giants’ offense rolled to five touchdowns for the first time against the Eagles since 2012. Dart finished 17 of 25 for 195 yards and a touchdown, and ran 13 times for 58 yards and another score.
Rookie running back Cam Skattebo powered the ground game with three scores, wearing down Philadelphia’s defense behind a strong performance from the Giants’ offensive line. New...

The 1-4 New York Giants, coming off a disturbing Week 5 loss to the previously winless New Orleans Saints, face a tall task on Thursday night against the defending Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles, who are 4-1.
The Giants are 7.5-point underdogs, per FanDuel Sportsbook.
The Giants are getting a bit of a break as the Eagles will be without star defensive tackle Jalen Carter, out with a heel injury. Starting guard Landon Dickerson is also inactive for Philadelphia due to an ankle injury.
The Giants clearly went to school on the Denver...

There are no real surprises in the inactives for the New York Giants on Thursday night. Injured players Darius Slayton (hamstring), Swayze Bozeman (ankle) and Demtrius Flannigan-Fowles (hamstring) will all be unavailable against the Philadelphia Eagles.
Rounding out the inactive list are offensive lineman Evan Neal, who has not been active for a game this season, offensive tackle James Hudson III, defensive lineman Elijah Garcia and emergency third quarterback Jameis Winston. Hudson is inactive for the first time this season.
The Giants elevated wide receiver Lil’Jordan Humphrey from the practice squad. They signed linebacker Neville Hewitt and placekicker Jude McAtamney...
