Philadelphia leads 8-6 at the break, but the Giants’ pass rush is keeping the Eagles’ offense in check.
Saquon Barkley’s touchdown has Philadelphia in front 8-6 at halftime, an edge for the 2-6 Eagles against the 4-2-1 Giants, who rank 16th in the power index to Philadelphia’s 29th. The Eagles have 121 total yards to New York’s 87, but both teams have lost a fumble and converted just 3 of 9 third downs. Joe Milton has 111 total yards for Philadelphia, while J.J.
