Eagles vs Giants Prediction
The current betting odds have the Eagles listed as a 7 point favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The Eagles have looked great in their games this season with their 4-1 record overall which has them right at the top of the NFC East. They won the Super Bowl last season and they have picked up right where they left off, starting the season with the best record in the NFL through 5 weeks. They are off their first loss of the season, losing at home to the Broncos after blowing a 17-3 lead, but that loss is only going to make them stronger and they will be looking to bounce back on Thursday in front of the nation. Meanwhile, the Giants have looked terrible in their games this season with their 1-4 record overall which has them right at the bottom of the NFC East with one of the worst records in the entire NFL. They started the season with Russell Wilson and the offense looked terrible. They made a change to Jaxson Dart and picked up their first win of the season over the Chargers, but they have come back down to Earth in their last one with a loss to the Saints who were winless going into that game. The Giants have more life with Dart, but the offense still hasn't looked great and they are going to be able to keep up with the talent on this Eagles offense, especially with the Eagles looking to bounce back. The best way to place a bet here is on the Eagles to cover the spread in this game.
Eagles Giants Prediction: Our NFL Pick for Thursday, October 9, 2025 (8:15 pm ET start time) is Eagles 27 Giants 17.
