Eagles @ Giants

Eagles head into the meadowlands, under the stars, for Sunday night football. This is a divisonal game, therefore it should be a hard fought battle. Both teams are 1-2 and look to get back to .500. the losing team will drop into the cellar of the division.

The Eagles still have many injurie issues they will have to deal with. Lito sheppard will be out for his second consecutive game. But, even more importantly Dawkins and Westbrook are both questionable. We need both of these players to start in order to have a good shot at defeating the Giants. If Westbrook can't play the eagles will be losing a huge offensive impact.

If Westbrook can not play, the defensive will have to step up their game to keep the ball game close. The defensive line will have to play like they did last week, and put on a ton of pressure on Eli Manning, who is know to struggle when opposing defense can rattle him a little. Even with a depleted secondary for the second straight week, they will still need to step up from last week. Sheldon Brown will have a lot to deal with, when he has to cover Plaxico Buress.

This ball game should be a hard fought battle. If Westbrook plays I believe eagles will have a much easier time winning. If he does play i see the Eagles winning 27-17. If Westbrook can not go I see it being a much closer game, something such as 20-17. Either wasy i believe eagles carry the momentum from last game and find their way back to .500
