tRY IT NOWHeroes, zeros and the full blitz from the Giants’ 34-17 win over the Eagles on Thursday night at MetLife Stadium:
Hero
Cam Skattebo scored three touchdowns, rushed for a career-high 98 yards and his take-no-crap physicality was the attitude needed for the Giants to reverse the decade-long bullying the Eagles have inflicted.
And with Saquon Barkley on the other sideline, no less.
Zero
Any hope the Eagles had of a fourth-quarter comeback ended on one ugly drive that began with AJ Dillon muffing a kickoff out of bounds at the 5-yard line and ended with Dillon losing a fumble on an 11-yard catch after the Eagles crossed midfield.
Unsung hero
The Giants scrapped the silly rotation of having starter Cor’Dale Flott sub out for Deonte Banks in third-down passing situations, and Flott responded by jumping a red-zone route by Jahan Dotson, leading to Jalen Hurts’ first interception of the season.
Key stat
58
Yards on 12 carries for Saquon Barkley, who gained 31 on his first two then couldn’t solve the oft-victimized Giants rushing defense.
