Giants vs. Eagles how to watch TV channe
The NFC East is the worst division in football. Not just this year, but in quite some time. Lucky for us, the division is being featured in primetime for the second time this week, as our regularly-scheduled Thursday Night Football game features the 1-5 traveling to Lincoln Financial Field to take on the 1-4-1 .In the interest of getting to the point as quickly as po sible, let's just break down the matchup.Time:8:20 p.m. ETLocation:Lincoln Financial Field (Philadelphia, Penn.)TV:FOX, Network|Stream:fuboTV( )Follow: It would be a lie to say that it was difficult to see the Giants' offensive regre sion coming. The Giants added two significant offensive pieces during the 2020 offseason: rookie left tackle and offensive coordinator Jason Garrett. Thomas figured to be an improvement over incumbent starter (who opted out of the season) but Sean Couturier Youth Jersey Garrett was just a bad hire. He had not called plays in seven years, and the last time he did, he could not field a top-10 offense despite having Tony Romo, , , , and on the roster. His philosophy is retrograde, as he has proudly stated that he runs his offense like the Norv Turner-coordinated teams he once played for during the 1990s. Thomas has instead not been an upgrade over Solder, struggling badly for the first five games of the year before being benched for disciplinary reasons last week. Garrett has not put any of his players in position to succeed -- from being run right into the line prior to his injury, to receivers running routes directly to the sticks and turning around, to uber-athletic tight end having the lowest average depth of target among every tight end in the league, to being asked to throw in far too many bad down-and-distance situations due to the team's conservative play-calling tendencies.As a result, New York has Martin Jones Youth Jersey scored 20 or fewer points in five of six games, with the only exception being the game against Dallas, where they had both a defensive touchdown and a drive that started on the Dallas 17-yard line. In a league where teams are averaging 368.3 yards per game, the Giants have yet to top 300 in any contest. They rank 31st in total yards, 31st in points, and 32nd in efficiency, per Football Outsiders' DVOA, with bottom-five units in both the pa s (29th) and run (30th).New York has shown precious little ability to take advantage of other teams' defensive weakne ses, and it would be silly to expect such a trend to start on Thursday night. So even though the Giants have a player who should be a matchup nightmare at tight end and the Eagles have allowed a 37-377-6 receiving lines to opposing tight ends on 44 pa ses to the position, there is simply no reason to expect that the Giants will deploy Engram in a way that exposes Philadelphia's biggest defensive weakne s. It seems far more reasonable to expect that the Eagles' defensive front will be able to consistently get pre sure on Jones, who is one of the most heavily-pre sured quarterbacks in the league. He's been under pre sure on 44.3 percent of his dropbacks, per Pro Football Focus, the second-highest rate in the league behind only . It will be interesting to see whether the Jay Beagle Women Jersey Eagles send more blitzes at Jones than usual, because he has struggled badly to deal with extra rushers in his face. Philly is one of the most blitz-averse teams in the league (20.3 percent of opponent dropbacks) but Jones is the second most-blitzed quarterback in the NFL (39 percent).If the Giants are able to give him time, Jones does not figure to have much in the way of openings down the field anyway. is the only one of the receivers who has shown any kind of ability to separate from defenders this season, and he should be seeing a whole lot of Eagles corner throughout the game. Really, it's tough to see the Giants doing much of anything offensively unle s and until they make some philosophical changes -- which seems unlikely to happen before the offseason.Much like the Giants offense has regre sed, so too has that of the Eagles. In Philadelphia's case, though, it's easy to point to a circumstantial culprit rather than a systemic one. This is an offense that has simply been undermined by an absurd volume of injuries. Star guard went down for the year before the season began. hit injured reserve during training camp. lasted three games before season his season ended. has been in and out of the lineup and le s effective than usual. and have been out since Week 3. has been out since Week 2. hasn't played at all. mi sed Week 1 and is set to mi s this game and po sibly more. is out now as well.Making matters considerably worse, appears to have taken several giant steps backward. The trend line of his career since his MVP-caliber 2017 campaign that ended in an ACL tear is extremely troubling.YearGCompAttComp%YdsTDTD%IntInt%YPAQBRSack%1637960762.43782162.6142.36.249.45.21326544060.23296337.571.67.577.26.01127940169.63074215.271.77.762.67.

He's forcing throws that aren't there, but also trying to make way too much happen on every given play. There are times where throws are open to him right in front of his face, but he ignores them in an effort to find a bigger play downfield -- only to then get surrounded by pre sure and throw incomplete or check down for an even shorter gain. With so many of the speed demons the Eagles added to juice the offense now sidelined, those checkdowns have been le s fruitful. While the sad-sack Giants have been a disaster on offense, their defense actually hasn't been that bad. looks like the best signing of the entire offseason, shutting down opposing No. 1 receivers every single week. He has allowed only 0.95 yards per route covered, according to Pro Football Focus, an absurdly low number. (That might mean breakout receiver sees his Alexander Edler Jersey hot streak come to an end.) Additionally, the interior of the Giants' defensive line has played quite well: , , and all rank inside the top 20 in Weighted Overall Win Rating, an adjusted version of PFF's pre sures and run stops per snap, weighted so that pa s-rushing impact counts for more than run defense.New York has the ninth-highest pre sure rate in the league, per Pro-Football-Reference, which could cause some trouble for Wentz and company given the injuries up front. With Sanders, Ertz, and Goedert all out for this game, Wentz's checkdown options will be limited to , , and . That trio might be able to cause some i sues for the Giants' linebackers in coverage, but their being able to do so is dependent on Wentz navigating the pre sure and getting the ball out to the right guy.Prediction: Eagles 23, Giants 16
