EAST RUTHERFORD – never too high or too low.
Say what you need about Joe Judge, but the Head Coach of the New York Giants did not attend his post-game interview with Zoom and swelled his chest, or that of his team.
After the Giants’ 27-17 victory over the Eagles, he ended an eight-game streak lost in the rivalry, judging the NFC’s “irrelevant” ranking.
Even though the Giants are well aware that, for the first time in a long time, they are not. No team plays better in the NFC East than the Giants, who finished part of a first-place game (and playoff spot for the champion of the accompanying department.
No in the department has more wins than the Giants with six games to play.
The series opposed to the Eagles is over and the Giants are back as valid contenders in the NFC East.
The sentence stopped midway through the response to ask someone close to the Giants Coaches Club to calm down. Winning or losing, whatever the circumstances, the 38-year-old head coach is who he is, and that consistency is helping to lay the groundwork for the Giants to play a vital role in rebuilding the franchise.
Perhaps it’s general for Jabrill Peppers to be the only one to attack Boston Scott long before the sticks in the Eagles’ last sigh, reversing the game one-on-one that eventually forced the Giants out of Philadelphia with a heartbreaking defeat.
Just 23 days ago, Scott scored the decisive landing with Peppers in the canopy. This time, the Giants had the right canopy called and there’s nothing Scott and the Eagles can do to solve it.

The Giants (3-7) ended an eight-game streak lost to the Eagles that dates back to two head training regimens, and now the approval trial has Big Blue close to the most sensible ranking before retiring.
The Giants put the game in the attack with Daniel Jones kneeling in the lineup of victory after the Eagles’ defensive take on Malik Jackson hit Will Hernandez, throwing a 15-yard penalty that sealed the result.
By the time of the week in a row, Jones did not return the ball, played what many will be the most productive match of his career with a quick landing and several very important pitches during a performance of 21 out of 28.
Eagles coach Doug Pederson and Giants coach Joe Judge have strong convictions in what is philosophically.
When Judge chooses to miss a competitive fourth competitive short play for a clearing kick, he relies on his kicker Riley Dixon and his team of kickers.
And when Pederson did what he did after the Eagles fired less than 4 points, for a two-point conversion after his landing moment in the third quarter, he saw and died through that sword.
Can the Giants have a four-point lead in the last quarter?
The Eagles scored a landing in their first part of the series at the time when Boston Scott scored 56 yards in six. The Giants responded with Wayne Gallman’s landing after Daniel Jones hit Sterling Shepard and Golden Tate for 27 and 38 yards. Three plays later, Gallman, in the finish area.
To achieve their biggest victory in a long time, the Giants will have to do anything at the time they couldn’t do in the last six minutes of their first game with the Eagles: protect a double-digit lead.
The touchdown passes of Daniel Jones and Wayne Gallman with a serious defensive effort against the lazy Eagles coming out of their break gave the Giants a 14-3 half-time lead. It’s a smart start with Jones leading the Giants to touchdowns in the first two series. , however, things got a little stuck in the times of decline of the quarter.
Jones is thirteen out of 17 for 112 yards and also ran for 46 yards and the 34-yard landing run in the first quarter.
The Giants had the chance of more problems due in the first half and were in position for a possible attempt to place Graham Gano, but Dion Lewis beeped a penalty that put them out of reach.
Daniel Jones stayed awake this time.
The Giants quarterback left the Eagles napping in the play area, and thanks to a play by Wayne Gallman and a key blockade of Austin Mack, Jones ran 34 yards to land and the game’s first score.
The Giants had changed a 3rd and a 3 on the previous move with a shovel pass from Jones to Evan Engram, then offensive coordinator Jason Garrett hit the Eagles with an option play that messed them up at the team’s assembly on October 22.
Jones stumbled at the end of his long career in that game, and even though the Giants scored, he has become the target of the jokes. Jones made sure to finish the game himself on Sunday.
Can Daniel Jones and the Giants end a streak of dominance by the Eagles in their NFC East rivalry?
The Giants have lost 8 straight games to the Eagles and 12 of their last thirteen games to Philadelphia. Of course, that comes with a bit of caution, as the Giants held an 11-point lead over the Eagles with just six minutes to go. play before losing 22-21, on October 22.
Golden Tate and Will Hernandez are active for the Giants, as is cornerman Isaac Yiadom, who added to the injury report on Friday and ranked as questionable due to a calf injury. Rookie Shane Lemieux started the last two games as a left guard, and the Giants plan to spin Lemieux and Hernandez, who returned this week after spending time on the COVID-19 reserve list after coming back positive.
Meanwhile, offensive end Miles Sanders and wide receiver Alshon Jeffery return to oppose the Giants.
