It’s tough to beat a team three times in the same season, but the Philadelphia Eagles pulled it off with ease on Saturday night.
The New York Giants were looking for revenge after losing both regular-season contests to Philly.
However, Lincoln Financial Field continues to be a house of terror for Big Blue.
The Eagles dominated from start to finish, en route to a 38-7 win. It was the Giants’ 10th consecutive loss in Philadelphia.

EAGLES FANS FIND A PARKING SPACE TO THE TAILGATE FOR 12 HOURS
In the Giants’ first six drives, they had a total of 68 yards. They won 88 on their third quarter goal drive – Matt Breida found the end zone. However, on their next drive, 4th and 6th near midfield, they decided to punt rather than try.
Philly, already dominating the game in progress, was able to use a lot of time to finish the game. In fact, they were able to waste nearly eight minutes of the fourth quarter on a drive that ended in a field goal.
The Eagles rushed for 268 yards — Kenneth Gainwell rushed for 112 and a touchdown, Miles Sanders added 90, Hurts rushed 34 and Scott put in 32. Goedert and Devonta Smith combined for 11 catches for 119 yards and two points, as did Hurt’s 16-for-24 for 154 yards. The Eagles defense also fired Jones five times.
