2020 NFL picks, score predictions for Week 7

New York Giants (1-5) at Philadelphia Eagles (1-4-1)

Thursday, October 22, 8:20PM ET

Ugh. It has been an ugly season for the NFC East. It seems the only wins they’re getting are against themselves as they continue to prove that they’re the most uninspiring division in the NFL. Unfortunately, we’ve got another divisional showdown in Week 7 that may very well bore viewers.

In this one, the New York Giants travel to take on the Philadelphia Eagles in a matchup of two teams that have only one win apiece through six weeks. It’s not one that’s going to produce many exciting momentums, unless you enjoy watching rough quarterback play, ridiculous turnovers, missed tackles and poor blocking.

Seeing as I need to pick a winner, though, I’m going with the Eagles. As pitiful as Carson Wentz has been at times this season, the Philadelphia offense and defense are playing better this season than their counterparts. The Giants have been awful and only got their first win last week against a similarly sad Washington Football Team.

The Giants will keep this one close, as the Eagles are sure to make their own fair share of mistakes throughout this one. However, when the final whistle blows, Philadelphia will lean on their young receivers to get the win.

Prediction: Eagles win 24-21
