Eagles record six sacks as rushing attack struggles against Giants
The Philadelphia Eagles' defence sacked New York Giants quarterback J. J.
The Philadelphia Eagles' defence sacked New York Giants quarterback J.J. McCarthy six times at Lincoln Financial Field on Sunday, a sharp improvement for a unit that had produced only 10 sacks through its first eight games. That earlier total was the NFL's second lowest. Jonathan Greenard registered his first sack as an Eagle, Zack Baun recorded two, Jalen Carter forced a fumble with a sack and Jordan Davis brought down the quarterback during a two-minute sequence. Philadelphia hit McCarthy, and briefly Jameis Winston, nine times after recording only 28 quarterback hits during the first half of the season, the league's 31st-ranked rate.
The run defence as well held the Giants to 80 yards, an average of 2.6 yards per carry, with New York missing its main running back Cam Skattebo. Philadelphia made 14 tackles for loss, compared with 27 across the entire season before the game. The Eagles' own ground attack remained under pressure. Running backs Tank Bigsby, Will Shipley, Carson Steele and Dameon Pierce have been lost to injuries, while the offensive line is adapting after Lane Johnson's retirement and the trade of Cam Jurgens.
Saquon Barkley scored in the first quarter but finished with 22 yards from 13 carries and appeared to remain affected by injury. Elijah Mitchell, now the second-choice running back, gained six yards from three attempts.
