Philadelphia Eagles vs. New York Giants

In another NFC East division game, the Eagles need to silence the New York Giants by beating them at least once in 2022. It would be incredible to see the Eagles sweep both the Cowboys and Giants, but New York had a solid draft class, too, so they will be tough.

The Eagles are 13-3 in the last 16 games against the Giants, but this will be their first matchup with Brian Daboll in charge of New York. Last year Philly beat the Eagles 34-10 in December after falling 13-7 in November.

Splitting the two games is the goal, but the Eagles have so much talent on offense that they should sweep the Giants regardless of New York’s additions.

If Philly wants to win the division, handling the Giants will be a key to achieving that goal.

The Eagles’ offense should be better than New York’s, but Jalen Hurts need to have two strong performances because the Giants loaded down on defense.

Hurts was key in that December victory, and when he is on, that offense flourishes, which will be key in 2022. The Giants are looking to shake up the division, but first, they have to get through the Eagles, and right now, that isn’t happening.
