Eagles-Giants scouting report
Eagles-Giants scouting report
HOT:
Eagles: TE Brent Celek. Had six catches for 131 yards last week against Seattle.
Giants: DE Justin Tuck. 5 of his team-high 8 sacks have come in the last three games.
NOT:
Eagles: RB Lorenzo Booker. Has just seven touches for 9 yards in the last five games.
Giants: WR Plaxico Burress. Has just 21 catches and three TDs in his last six starts.
Key matchups
1. Eagles RT Jon Runyan and RG Max Jean-Gilles vs. Giants LDE Justin Tuck: Tuck will line up both inside and outside depending on the scheme. Tuck's quickness could give Jean-Gilles problems. ADVANTAGE: GIANTS
2. Eagles LBs Stewart Bradley, Omar Gaither and Chris Gocong vs. Giants RB Brandon Jacobs: The 264-pound Jacobs is a load, but Eagles have held six of eight opponents to fewer than 90 rushing yards. ADVANTAGE: EAGLES
3. Eagles CB Asante Samuel vs. Giants WR Plaxico Burress: Burress has averaged 17.6 yards per catch in seven games against the Eagles. ADVANTAGE: GIANTS
Domowitch's prediction
Giants 16, Eagles 12
