"The Giants-Eagles rivalry is going primetime as the two NFC East foes kick off Week 6 action on Thursday night at MetLife Stadium (8:15 p.m. ET, FOX). The gulf in class between these two is obvious. The defending Super Bowl-champion Eagles have been one of the more consistent contenders in the NFL over the last few years; meanwhile, the Giants continue to languish in dysfunction. What could possibly go wrong?"
"The passing game has been an afterthought, ranking 31st in the league with 161.8 yards per game. Quarterback Jalen Hurts has been shy to throw the deep ball, with just 12 completions over 20 yards through five games. It's left star receivers AJ Brown and DeVonta Smith voicing their frustration about their roles with the team, but Thursday night against the Giants and their 25th-ranked passing defense appears to be the perfect opportunity for a get-right game."
The Giants and Eagles meet in a primetime Week 6 showdown at MetLife Stadium, highlighting a clear talent gap between a Super Bowl-winning Eagles team and a dysfunctional Giants squad. The Eagles have won 20 of 22 games but suffered their first loss after a Broncos comeback, exposing cracks. Philadelphia’s passing attack ranks 31st at 161.8 yards per game, with Jalen Hurts avoiding deep throws and receivers AJ Brown and DeVonta Smith expressing frustration. The Giants rank 25th against the pass, presenting an opportunity for the Eagles to reset. New York must limit mistakes and find composure under pressure.
