NFC East Blowout


The Eagles destroyed the Giants 40-17. The Eagles defense was really dominant in this game. The Eagles used a blitz-happy approach to force Eli Manning into a bad performance. Defensive coordinator Sean McDermott called up the pressure early to hurry the clock in Manning's head and incorporated a series of bluff-and-drop tactics to bait him into hurried throws against their zone. With Manning not being comfortable in the pocket, the Eagles intercepted him twice and kept the Giants from finding an offensive rhythm.
