The New York Giants defeated the Philadelphia Eagles 34-17 in their first meeting on October 9, with rookies Jaxson Dart at quarterback and Cam Skattebo at running back leading the charge, showing no intimidation despite the Eagles' status as defending Super Bowl champions.
Jaxson Dart impressed in his performance, completing 17 of 25 passes for 195 yards and adding 58 rushing yards with a touchdown, earning praise from Eagles defensive coordinator Vic Fangio, who noted that teams that passed on Dart in the draft would regret it, highlighting his athleticism, scrambling ability, and strong throwing skills.
Cam Skattebo also stood out, rushing for 98 yards and three touchdowns in the game, which surpassed any single-game performance by Eagles star running back Saquon Barkley this season, despite Barkley's 2,005-yard season last year.
A second meeting between the teams is scheduled in just 17 days, with the Eagles coming off a win against the Vikings and the Giants recovering from a close loss to the Broncos, though the Eagles hold a 12-0 record against the Giants at Lincoln Financial Field since 2014, including playoffs.
