The New York Giants (1–4) host the Philadelphia Eagles (4–1) in a Thursday Night Football matchup at MetLife Stadium, as rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart makes his third career start.

While Dart continues to manage a mild hamstring issue, the Eagles arrive in East Rutherford amid offensive uncertainty and growing locker-room tension, despite sitting atop the NFC East.

4-1 and No Fun in Philly

Quarterback Jalen Hurts has faced mounting criticism over decision-making and turnovers, while Saquon Barkley’s role in the offense has been inconsistent — including just six carries in last week’s loss to Denver.

Wideouts A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith have reportedly expressed frustration over play-calling and target share.

Injuries haven’t helped either: Pro Bowl guard Landon Dickerson is questionable with an ankle issue, and Barkley continues to manage a knee flare-up.

Giant Growing Pains

As for the Giants, they’re 1-1 in the Dart era, which began with a surprise Week 4 win over the Los Angeles Chargers. The rookie QB showed poise under pressure and mobility outside the pocket. But in Week 5, New York fell 24–17 to the New Orleans Saints, squandering a 14–3 halftime lead with five consecutive drives over the last three quarters ending in turnovers.

The Giants also suffered a major blow in that Chargers win: star receiver Malik Nabers tore his ACL and will miss the rest of the season.

Eagles-Giants Tickets: Here’s How Much They Cost

Still, this is an NFC East rivalry you won’t want to miss. Philadelphia remains a dangerous opponent, but the defending Super Bowl champs’ aura of dominance has clearly dimmed. Head coach Brian Daboll’s job may be on the line, yet the team itself may have little to lose and could be primed for an upset win under the lights at MetLife.

Ticket prices for Thursday night’s Giants–Eagles showdown are starting around $130 for upper-level seats. Mid-level seats start at around $175, while lower-bowl seats closer to the field start at around $190 in the end zone. Sideline seats near the 50-yard line start at under $400. There are also first-row seats available on the sidelines.

Now, if you can’t make it to this week’s game, the two teams run it back later this month in Philly at Lincoln Financial Field.
