If the Philadelphia Eagles were going to get challenged late this season, we figured it might have been against a divisional opponent. Well, it wasn’t against the New York Giants this week, as the Eagles took care of business, beating their divisional foe 48-14.
The result brings the Eagles to 12-1 on the season, while the Giants drop to 7-5-1.
Offensive spotlight: Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts was fantastic in this contest — as he has been all season. He finished the game 21-for-31 passing with 217 passing yards, two touchdowns and zero interceptions, along with 77 rushing yards on seven carries for another touchdown. Hurts had four big-time throws to zero turnover-worthy plays on the day, continuing his MVP campaign.
Defensive spotlight: Eagles pass-rusher Brandon Graham finished the game with a PFF grade of 91.6 on first review, the highest for either squad. He racked up four pressures and three sacks with a pass-rush win percentage of 22.2%. He also had a stop and an additional tackle for loss in run defense.
Rookie spotlight: There weren’t many notable rookie performances in this game for either team, but former first-round pass-rusher Kayvon Thibodeaux finished the game with three total pressures and a 19.2% pass-rush win percentage on first review.
Offensive line spotlight: It was a tough day for Giants rookie offensive tackle Evan Neal, who finished PFF's first run of analysis with just a 47.4 pass-blocking grade. Across 51 snaps, he allowed seven total pressures and a sack. It wasn’t his best day against a talented and versatile Eagles front.
