The Eagles have handed the Giants some of their worst losses in history. It was they and Chuck Bednarik who knocked Frank Gifford cold and helped bring their halcyon days of the 1950s and early 1960s to an end. It was they and Herman Edwards who recovered the infamous fumble by Joe Pisarcik and returned it for a touchdown to beat them in 1978. It was they and DeSean Jackson who returned a Matt Dodge punt as time expired in 2010 to keep the Giants out of the playoffs.
