The New York Giants and Philadelphia Eagles squared off Thursday night in a game between 1-win teams that were just a game back in the dreadful NFC East entering Week 7.
So while both teams are bad, they each had a chance to pick up a big division win in Philly.
Well, the Eagles got the victory, 22-21, with a Carson Wentz TD pass to Boston Scott with 40 seconds left in the game.
The biggest play of the game, however, arguably took place a few minutes before that when Giants TE Evan Engram dropped an easy pass that could have led to the Giants either running out the clock or adding more points and putting the game away.
How do you drop this?

That led to a punt and the winning TD from the Eagles.
NFL fans roasted Engram:
That's Evan Engram summed up perfectly. Roasts the defensive back more easily than 99% of tight ends can dream of. Drops the ball. If he had average hands he'd be one of the best tight ends in the NFL. Instead he's got awful hands and it's questionable if you can start him.

Eagles should carry Evan Engram off the field on their shoulders.

Evan Engram should have to walk back to NY and then get cut when he crosses state lines

Evan Engram shouldn’t check his mentions.

I blame Evan Engram 100% for this loss.
Losing this game means we are sellers at the trade deadline and Engram better be on his way out.

Of course this happens. Of course. WE DONT DESERVE THIS.
GET EVAN ENGRAM THE HELL OUT OF NEW YORK
