New York Giants (4-7) at Seattle Seahawks (8-3), 4:05 pm

Giants: The team is in the midst of a three-game winning streak, the Giants’ longest since 2016 (their last playoff campaign). The team may have to turn to quarterback Colt McCoy (via ESPN’s Jordan Raanan) if Daniel Jones isn’t recovered from a hamstring injury. Six of the club’s last seven games have been decided by three points or less.

Seahawks: The club is back atop the NFC West by itself and a revamped defense has helped. After allowing 44 points and five offensive TDs in a Week 9 loss at Buffalo, the Seahawks have given up a combined 61 points (8 offensive touchdowns) in their last three games. Seattle allowed a season-low 250 total yards vs. the Eagles.

Philadelphia Eagles (3-7-1) at Green Bay Packers (8-3), 4:25 pm

Eagles: The woes continue for quarterback Carson Wentz and Doug Pederson’s club, which will have to run the table to finish above .500 for a fourth consecutive season. The fifth-year signal-caller has taken a beating, sacked a disturbing 46 times in 11 contests. The Birds have 21 turnovers, all but two of those via miscues by Wentz.

Packers: Green Bay’s offensive unit continues to run with efficiency. The Packers became the first team this season to score at least 30 points against the Bears. Aaron Rodgers has thrown 33 touchdown passes compared to only four interceptions and the Pack’s offensive unit has reached the end zone 42 times – led by Davante Adams (11).
