Eagles vs. Giants Divisional Round betting preview
These are not the same old Giants that came into this season with a 22-59 record since 2016. Rookie coach Brian Daboll, up for Coach of the Year, has resurrected Daniel Jones‘ career and has instilled a new culture in East Rutherford.
Jones went 24-for-35 with 301 yards and two touchdowns on Sunday. He added 78 rushing yards on 17 carries.
The Eagles will be well-rested coming off the bye. The rest should help Jalen Hurts‘ ailing shoulder. Hurts, who sprained his shoulder in Week 15, returned against the Giants in Week 18 after a two-game absence. He was 20-for-35 for 229 yards with an interception in that one.
Right tackle Lane Johnson is expected to return and play through a torn adductor.
