Eagles at Giants predictions for Week 7 of the NFL season originally appeared on NBC Sports Philadelphia
The Eagles (3-2) will head to MetLife Stadium to face the Giants (2-4) on Sunday afternoon.

The Eagles have lost four straight games following wins and haven’t won consecutive games since last November, when they reached 10-1 by beating the Chiefs and Bills. They win a game and you think they’ve gotten back on track and then they lose a game and you feel like they’re never going to win another game. I think there’s a reason for this.

They certainly have the talent (and the schedule) to go on a run and string together a bunch of wins, but until I see them put together 60 minutes of consistent ball on a regular basis — which they haven’t done in almost a year now — it’s hard to feel optimistic about this team. They’ve now gone 16 consecutive games without a two-possession win, and the last eight games they’ve led by 10 or more points they’ve either lost the game or won by fewer than 10 points. They haven’t won consecutive games since the Chiefs and Bills last November. The Giants aren’t very good — 2-4 with wins over the Browns and Seahawks, an offense scoring just 14.8 points per game, a quarterback who doesn’t do anything particularly well and a head coach with a 17-22-1 career record. But they have a legit defense, they’ve won three of the last four at MetLife against the Eagles, and I just have no faith in the Eagles going into East Rutherford and winning this game.
Giants 23, Eagles 20
Dave Zangaro (2-3)
The Eagles might be in store for another ugly win. They’re coming off a close win over the Browns and it’s hard to imagine them blowing anyone out right now. But the Giants just aren’t very good either. They have some real firepower on the defensive line but might not have the playmakers on the back end to capitalize on any mistakes. And even…
