Despite Malik Nabers' return, the Giants' offense continued to struggle and scored just three points. Daniel Jones threw for only 99 yards and got sacked seven times, which gave Drew Lock an opportunity to play in the fourth quarter.
The Eagles are now 4-2 on the season and will play the Cincinnati Bengals next week. They will hope to build on this win against the Giants and go on a long winning streak.
As for the Giants, the franchise should already be looking at quarterbacks from next year's draft class. It's evident that Jones is not the solution to their problems, and they should start over with a new quarterback and Nabers as the cornerstones of the franchise.
