A pair of NFC East rookies announced their arrivals in a big way on Thursday Night Football.
Unfortunately for the Philadelphia Eagles and their fans, we’re not talking about linebacker Jihaad Campbell and safety Andrew Mukuba. Not even close.
The New York Giants, led by a 22-year-old quarterback making his third NFL start, and a fourth-round rookie running back, physically punished the reigning Super Bowl champions throughout Thursday’s 34-17 shocker at MetLife Stadium.
The Eagles were physically outclassed at the line of scrimmage, surrendering 14 first downs and four touchdowns to the Giants’ rushing attack.
