Eagles Seek Revenge Against Giants, Face Dart

The Philadelphia Eagles will host the New York Giants at Lincoln Financial Field in Week 8, seeking revenge after losing 34-17 to New York in Week 5. Rookie QB Jaxson Dart, who starred in that earlier meeting, will face his first truly hostile road environment as the Eagles' crowd and pass rush present a stern test. Rookie RB Cam Scattebo also helped fuel New York’s attack in the Week 5 game and is expected to factor into the Giants' plan again. Philadelphia enters the game 5-2 and looks to protect its divisional standing before its upcoming bye, while New York is 2-5 and still seeking its first road win with Dart as the starter. Giants veterans have urged Dart to rely on teammates and coaches amid the rowdy atmosphere, and both teams are expected to make quick tactical adjustments after their last meeting. Dart's 0-2 road record as a starter and the rematch's high stakes make Week 8 a significant test of his poise and New York's chance to sweep a rival they last swept in 2007.
