New York Giants @ Philadelphia Eagles, 1:00 PM ET
The New York Giants have an inside track to a 5-2-1 start in the 2026 season, primarily without Jaxson Dart. The impact of hiring John Harbaugh has already been felt, and while the Giants aren't going to be a major threat in the playoffs, this team is well-coached, and things just feel different this year than in previous seasons.
As for the Philadelphia Eagles, they've lost six games in a row and just need to hit the rest button in a big way. It's quite sad to see how quickly this window has closed, but all good things come to an end, and now is the time for some roster shuffling.
I guess the Eagles' home-field advantage could help them keep this close, but the Giants, like we all expected, are better than the Eagles across the board at this point. It also has not helped that the injuries continue to mount for Philly.
The Giants win this one by eight points.
Prediction: Giants win 24-16

Los Angeles Rams @ Washington Commanders, 1:00 PM ET
The Los Angeles Rams have begun to find their footing on offense thanks to a more even run-pass split, and it's the right move. I would expect the Rams to keep this up for much of the season, as it'll take a ton of pressure off Matthew Stafford and the passing attack, which won't have Davante Adams for the foreseeable future.
Washington did beat Philadelphia in Week 8, but that really isn't saying much. The Rams are going to continue playing inspired, desperate football to continue turning their seson around. I would expect another efficient showing from the offense and an overall solid outing from the defense in a 10-point victory.
