i guess the eagles are not afraid of the giants and believe that they will win. also if they lose are not afraid of tampa.

Giants are playing inspired football right now. If the Eagles rest their starters the Giants are the favorites to win.

Sirianni probably doesn't even know the schedule has both games at 4:25 EST.

Yes, I guess his comment could have been before the schedule times were announced.

maybe the eagles are confident that they can win anyway no matter how the giants are playing.

They lost to the Jets, Drew Lock and the Cardinals. Those games should be enough to send them the message that the Tampa or even the Giants aren't automatic easy wins for their teams. Just like I would hope the Cowboys to learn not to take the Commanders lightly based off of how we lost to the Cardinals earlier this season.

They're 1-4 over their last five games and there's been defensive playcalling changes and even some locker room finger pointing. Philly shouldn't be confident about anything.

The Giants almost tied or beaten the Eagles in Phili. They have the potential or possibility of beating the Eagles in NY. I wasn't surprised that the Cardinals beat them. They are falling as bad as us.

Zero chance they sit guys not knowing the outcome of our game and the 2 seed on the table….huge nothing burger here

If I had to depend on the Commanders to get it done when they want the high draft pick, I’d sit the banged up ones too. That being said, it will be hard for that POS coach to carry on like he does as if he’s a tough and no nonsense guy. He looks weak.

 

[viman96]

I will not be surprised if he gets fired after the season.

 

[Jayinem]

Can't wait until they're tush pushed out of the playoffs.

Lol what a train wreck lol

idk it may be some big smokescreen to trick the giants into thinking that even at less then full strength that they can win. i still think that the eagles are the better team. i just hope that the cowboys show up and beat washington so the eagles game will not matter.

Go GIANTS!

 

[TequilaCowboy]

Just blowing smoke, me thinks he will certainly play his starters and fully trying to win. He would be cooked if he sat them and lost and the Cowboys lost too. He would be on the next train to Palookaville.

 

[atlantacowboy]

That team is a hot mess. Sirianni did wrong by Desai and likely has created a big rift with the players on D having Patricia take over "play calling".

Maybe but the players have to take some responsibility for sucking so badly too.

It was a 100% given that both games would be played at the same time. The NFL has done that for several years now.

 

[The Fonz]

Patricia is garbage I don't know what Sirianni sees in him

 

[TwoCentPlain]

Think long term. Could be a very smart move by the Eagles. Let the Giants win and drop the Giants’ pick in the draft a little lower, assuring the Giants not getting one of the top picks in the draft.

 

[DUO_CORE]

But they don't have any "key" players. Wait, they're going to sit the refs maybe.
