So far it’s been going good for the New York Giants in their game against the Philadelphia Eagles. However, now things may have taken a turn in the wrong direction. After being slammed to the ground by the Eagles D,  Giants wide receiver Victor Cruz left the game to go to the locker room. You can check out what happened here:

It is unknown how serious the injury is at this time, although things are indicating it’s not looking good for Cruz and the Giants. Victor Cruz is currently getting X-Rays for his neck, according to the Giants.

The Giants had seemed to be getting back on track as they got a win last Monday against the Minnesota Vikings, however, it looks like it’s “one step forward, two steps back” for the G-Men.

The Giants currently hold the lead over the Eagles, 12-0, but there is still a little over a quarter left to play. Anything can happen, and we’ve seen that this season.

The Eagles are going to have to come from behind with Matt Barkley behind center, as Michael Vick went to the bench after feeling something wrong with his hamstring.
