The Eagles have been eliminated from playoff contention, but that doesn’t mean they won’t show a little pride in playing spoilers Thursday.
The Eagles (5-9) will play host to the 10-4 Giants (Thursday, 8:25 p.m. ET, NBC, NFL Network, Twitter) in the first of what will be several Week 16 games with huge playoff implications.
The Giants need to win out to have any hope of catching the Cowboys (12-2) in the NFC East but can wrap up a playoff berth Thursday. Win and they're in, but there is still a slim chance they could be left out if they lose their final two games (they close against the 7-6-1 Redskins).
