The Eagles are grounded

Philadelphia has a ton of injuries: WR Nelson Agholor (knee), TE Zach Ertz (ribs), T Lane Johnson (ankle), WR J.J. Arcega-Whiteside (foot), DE Derek Barnett (ankle), G Brandon Brooks (calf), DT Fletcher Cox (triceps), RB Jordan Howard (shoulder) and CB Jalen Mills (ankle) are all on the injury report.

Add in the recent injuries to WR Alshon Jeffrey (foot), who is out for the year, and DeSean Jackson (abdomen), and the Eagles’ firepower has been severely reduced.

Philly skated past Dallas last week and are on a three-game winning streak, but the Giants could be playing better than both of those teams at the moment, so strap yourself in.
