Philadelphia Eagles vs. New York Giants Odds and Game Pick (2021)
Everything about the New York Giants feels bad after their loss against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. They fired offensive coordinator Jason Garrett. No one's job is safe in New York, including the players. Daniel Jones' play has been underwhelming, and Saquan Barkley's injury history has prevented him from playing an entire season. After last week's game, there are a lot of question marks for the New York Giants. Now they are going up against a Philadelphia team that is 3-1 in their last four games. Let us review this week's matchup to find the best value.

Overview
The New York Giants are out an offensive coordinator. That is not surprising since the offense averages 19 points per game. They have 22 turnovers this season, and none of their wide receivers have over 400 receiving yards. The running game is not any better, as their leading rusher has just 380 yards. The defense is struggling too. They are allowing 25 points per game and almost 400 total yards. The Giants lack any linebackers with speed, which will cause issues when trying to stop Jalen Hurts and Dallas Goedert. New York will have to pull out all the stops to hang with this Eagles team that is starting to heat up.
Philadelphia has started to hit its stride lately. Their offense is averaging 34.5 points through their last four games and 27 points through the entire season. Now, they get Miles Sanders back. Hurts and Sanders are a phenomenal combo in the running game that gives teams headaches. That will only add to the Eagles’ opportunities to score points. Defensively, the Eagles have vastly improved the last few games. They are allowing 18 points per game through their last four games. They have gotten five turnovers during this time. That is important because the Giants are turnover machines. These turnovers will give more opportunities to the Eagles to score points. Everything is leaning towards the Eagles this game.
Bottom Line
There are too many questions for the New York Giants in this game. The Eagles are 12-2 against the Giants in their last 14 games. The Giants have always struggled against the Eagles and look to continue in one of the Giant's worst seasons ever. There is too much uncertainty with the Giants in this game. With Miles Sanders back, the Eagles only get better. That means the Eagles have the betting value during this game. The Giants at +115 is not enough value to bet with how bad they have been. Bettors need to bet the betting value this week in the NFL, and this is the value play.
Pick: Philadelphia Eagles Moneyline (-134)
