Malik Nabers was particularly impressive, racking up 125 receiving yards, while Demond Claiborne bolstered the ground game with a standout performance of 105 rushing yards. Jalen Hurts kept the Eagles competitive with two touchdown passes, but it wasn't enough to overcome the Giants' offensive firepower.
