- Philadelphia is the first team to run for 175 or more yards in seven straight games since 1985.
- The Eagles are first in the league in success rate rushing (48.9%) but 22nd in success rate per dropback (45.7%).
- The Giants have scored a touchdown on 9.3% (5-of-54) of their drives since their Week 10 bye, 31st in the league.
- The Giants have scored a touchdown on 15.1% of their red zone plays, fewest in the league.

Quarterback
Jalen Hurts: Coming off an ankle injury and two turnovers early in the game, Hurts rebounded by throwing for a season-high 11.4 yards per pass attempt to go along with two rushing scores on Tuesday. It was the fourth time this season that Hurts had multiple rushing touchdowns and his ninth fantasy game with 20 or more points on the year. Hurts leads all quarterbacks with 11 QB1 scoring weeks on the year.
When these teams hooked up in Week 12, Hurts was objectively terrible in his worst game of the season. He completed just 45.2% of his passes with three interceptions and zero interceptions in his lowest-scoring game (6.9 points) of the season.
The Giants have been solid against the pass, allowing 6.7 yards per pass attempt (sixth) with 0.40 passing points allowed per attempt (11th), but they are 22nd in passing points allowed per game (15.1) since they are 24th in touchdown passes allowed (24). It is a low bar for Hurts to be better than he was Week 12 when these teams played and he has lived in the QB1 conversation all season.
