The Eagles are running the G-Men out of Philadelphia early, thanks to huge plays on both sides of the ball.
The Birds, already out of playoff contention, absolutely manhandled the NFC East-rival Giants through the first half of the first quarter, thanks to running back Darren Sproles and cornerback Malcolm Jenkins.

Not to be outdone, the defense doubled down on the ensuing New York drive, courtesy of an Eli Manning interception.
