How to watch Giants vs. Eagles: Predictions, injury news, odds for Christmas Day
The Philadelphia Eagles (10-4) are hoping for a Christmas miracle as they take on the New York Giants (5-9) on Christmas Day and hope to snap their three-game losing streak.
The Philadelphia Eagles are going through a rough patch, and they no longer look like the Super Bowl contenders that they did at the start of the season. The Eagles have lost their last three games, with their most recent defeat being a 20-17 loss to the Seattle Seahawks. Against the Seahawks, Eagles' quarterback Jalen Hurts battled through illness but managed to complete 17 out of 31 pass attempts for 143 yards. Unfortunately, Hurts also threw two interceptions, resulting in the lowest completion rate and passing yards of the 2023 season.
The Giants are coming off a 24-6 loss to the New Orleans Saints, and their chances of making it to the postseason as the last NFC wild-card team are slim. Therefore, the Giants are in a must-win position in Week 16. Tommy Devito, the Giants' quarterback, had a difficult time getting with the offense against the Saints, completing only 20 of 34 pass attempts for 177 yards. Despite his struggling performance, Devito will start at quarterback against the Eagles.
