54. Philadelphia played spoiler at home Thursday night in handing the New York Giants their fourth road loss of the season. Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz threw for 152 yards, and found Nelson Agholor for a 40-yard touchdown in the first half. Despite being evaluated for a concussion, Wentz returned to help seal the Eagles fifth win of the season at home. Malcolm Jenkins was the star of the game for Philadelphia, picking off Eli Manning two times, and returning one for a touchdown in the first quarter. An interception by Terrence Brooks on the Giants final offensive play prevented the Giants from clinching a playoff spot in South Philly. <p>Next Week: Philadelphia hosts the NFC East division champion Dallas Cowboys for the final game of the regular season. With the playoffs no longer an option, Eagles players must prove to team executives why they deserve to be a part of the future. It’s all for pride at this stage of the season.</p> <p>Draft Talk: Howie Roseman made two of the best trades in the league year, one of which was getting the Vikings first round pick for Sam Bradford. If the Vikings lose out and the Eagles win their final game, Philadelphia will have a better draft slot than the pick they sent to Cleveland. Wide receiver and cornerback will be the two most critical areas for the Eagles to address when they host the NFL Draft.</p>. 6-9. Previous: . Philadelphia Eagles. 23. team
