The New York Giants and Philadelphia Eagles meet in Week 5 for an NFC East showdown. Listen to the live action for free online as the Giants and Eagles hook up for their first matchup of the 2013 NFL Season. Kickoff will be at 1 p.m. ET.
The Eagles have the advantage in this one. Their defense is one of the worst in the game, allowing the most total yardage (446.8) and the second highest points per game (34.5). It seems that their offense is not only running their opponents out of gas, but they are also driving their defense nuts by having them out on the field for so much time.
However, the Eagles' offense is everything that analysts expected them to be in 2013. Though they are only scoring 24.8 points, which ranks them 12th in the league, they are averaging 458.8 yards per game, along with 260.5 passing yards and the league's best 198.2 yards per game on the ground.
The Giants do not possess anything functional, except for a decent passing game led by Eli Manning. Their defense has been horrendous, though their cornerbacks appear to make great plays in every game. Overall, things do not look good for the Giants in 2013 as they allow the most points on defense with opponents averaging 36.5 points per game against them in 2013.
The Giants are still looking for their first win of the season. They are off to an 0-4 start after suffering losses to the Dallas Cowboys, Denver Broncos, Carolina Panthers and Kansas City Chiefs. However, the NFC East is very week as the Cowboys are in first place with a 2-2 record. With a win, the Giants will be only a game out from second place in the division.
