The Philadelphia Eagles are playoff eliminated as they travel to the Giants with a record of 4-11 on the season. The team is 2-5 away from home. The Eagles has dropped ten of their past eleven games. Philadelphia is coming off the 27-20 home defeat last week to the Washington Redskins as a +4 ½ point underdog. The game landed over 46 points. The Eagles moved the ball very well in the game with 411 yards. Their red zone struggle reared its ugly head once again as they get into the end zone just once in four tries. Nick Foles broke his hand in the game so Michael Vick is the likely starter. Vick has 11 touchdowns and 9 picks this season and completes 58% of his passes. The Eagles veteran signal caller has been turnover prone this season.

The New York Giants host Philadelphia with a record of 8-7. They are 5-2 at home on the season. New York has an outside chance to earn a wildcard playoff spot.
