After averaging 363.8 yards in the first four games of the season, the Eagles have averaged only 256.3 yards in the last three games. The Eagles have a chance to shake that slump on Sunday against a middle-of-the-pack Giants defense that invested a lot of money in its unit during the offseason. The Eagles' offensive line must protect against Giants pass rushers Jason Pierre-Paul and Olivier Vernon, who have combined for 21/2 sacks even though they both are on lucrative contracts. Their pass-rush skills are better than their statistics indicate, though, and the Eagles need to make sure Carson Wentz stays upright if they want the passing game to get beyond the short, quick passes it featured last week.
