GAME of the MONTH (NFL) Schule's NFC East Top Rated *BLOCKBUSTER*
(NFL) NY Giants vs. Philadelphia, 10/19/2015 4:30 PM, Score: 7 - 27
Point Spread: 3.50 | -110.00 NY Giants (Away)
Result: Loss
This is a 10* play on the New York Giants.

The Eagles are getting a lot of love from the public here at home on Monday night. They are a pretty big favorite when you consider they still have a losing record, and both their wins were aided by turnovers. Last week they beat a pretty bad Saints team, and Drew Brees threw and interception and lot two fumbles. Their only other win came against the Jets, and New York tuned the ball over four times in that game.

Chip Kelly isn't really fooling anybody with this offense, and DeMarco Murray and Sam Bradford have both failed to live up to expectations. Bradford ranks 30th in the NFL with a passer rating of 83.7, while Murray has averaged just 2.7 yards per carry, and has failed to rush for 100 yards in any of his games this season.

Eli Manning is having a great season so far, and he threw for a season high 441 yards and three TDs in a home win over San Francisco last Sunday. He's fortunate to have one of the best receivers in the game in Odell Beckham Jr., who caught 11 passes for 121 yards and a TD in the win over the Niners. He's still listed as questionable for this game with a sore hamstring, but he'll more than likely be able to go.

The Giants own the leagues' top run defense so far this season, allowing only 80 rushing yards per game and a total of just three rushing TDs. If they can stop the Eagles running game, I don't think Philly will be able to take advantage of a below average New York secondary. The Eagles don't exactly have the most talented receiving corps, and they've been plagued by penalties and poor play on the offensive line.

This line looks incredibly inflated, and I like New York's chances of keeping it close, if not winning outright.

Take NYG.
