PHILADELPHIA EAGLES ?7 (Monday) - This may seem like a lot of points in a bitter divisional rivalry, but I just don?t see the Giants generating much offense vs. this staunch Philadelphia defense. The Giants are averaging just 14.3 points per game, scoring 13 points or less in 4 of their 6 games so far. They are going up against an Eagles team that is allowing just 17.0 points per game, a figure that drops to 13.3 here at home. Offensively, this is a much more potent Philly team than past seasons, averaging 33.0 points in their home games. The Eagles have been very good in the first half this season, and I look for them to jump out to a safe lead, then allowing their defense to shut down a Giants offense that is not geared toward coming from behind.
