It is rare when the team leading a division is motivated by revenge against the team sitting in last in that same division but that is the case Sunday in Philadelphia when the Eagles (5-2) look for payback against the New York Giants (2-5). Just two weeks ago the Giants pulled off a shocking upset of Philly. Jaxson Dart and co. embarrassed the defending champs, 34-17.
The Giants followed up that win with a near-upset of the Broncos in Denver but somehow coughed up an 18-point lead with just over five minutes left in the fourth quarter and lost 33-32. Missed extra points, poor coaching, player fatigue…you name it and you can probably lay some of the blame on it.
Looking ahead to the rematch with Philadelphia, if the Giants are to pull off another upset, they will need a big performance
