Eagles-Giants: Staff picks, betting odds, and more for Kelly Green week at the Linc

The Philadelphia Eagles are set to face the New York Giants in Week 8 on October 24, 2025, at Lincoln Financial Field, with the Eagles wearing their Kelly Green uniforms for this home game. This matchup is a rematch following the Eagles' previous loss to the Giants in primetime, which left a negative impression on fans, compounded by the Phillies' season ending around the same time. However, the Eagles' recent victory over the Minnesota Vikings has provided a sense of reset for the team, raising questions about whether they can continue this momentum and secure a win against the Giants this time.

In the earlier Week 6 game, the Eagles performed poorly across all aspects of the game. Defensively, they struggled to contain Giants rookies, quarterback Jaxson Dart and running back Cam Skattebo, with Skattebo overpowering defenders and Dart evading sacks to make improvised plays. Offensively, Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts had his worst game of the 2025 season, missing key passes including a deep throw to a wide-open DeVonta Smith and throwing an interception. Special teams also faltered, as returners failed to handle kickoffs effectively, contributing to a comprehensive defeat where the Eagles played at their worst while the Giants excelled.

A significant change for the upcoming game is the return of Jalen Carter, who was unexpectedly absent in Week 6 but recovered to deliver a strong performance in Week 7 against the Vikings, arguably his best of the season. His presence has transformed the Eagles' defense, and Hurts also showcased his best game of the year in that win, with the passing offense appearing more dangerous. This improvement suggests the Eagles are likely to perform better than in the previous matchup, while the Giants may not replicate their earlier high level of play, as indicated by predictions and betting odds.
