NFL Week 14 picks: Who the ‘experts’ are taking in Eagles vs. Giants

The Eagles (11-1) and Giants (7-4-1) are set to meet on Sunday afternoon in a game that could get emotional between two heated rivals.

Philadelphia will look to control the line of scrimmage on both sides of the football.

At the same time, Jonathan Gannon will figure out how to pressure Giants quarterback Daniel Jones without sacrificing running lanes.

The expert picks are in, and the consensus is with the Eagles in Week 14.

All three writers from The Inquirer are picking Philadelphia.

This has the makings of a physical game that could stay tight deep into the second half, but the Eagles have a decided talent advantage and have played better than the Giants in recent weeks.

Using picks against the spread, The Ringer is rolling with Philadelphia.

It’s a divisional game, and I generally like taking Brian Daboll as an underdog. But the Giants’ lack of talent at wide receiver and corner is a huge factor here. I like the Eagles by a touchdown.

Pete Prisco is rolling with Philadelphia in a close game.

This is a big game for the Giants in the playoff race, a game sandwiched between two with Washington. They need this game more than the Eagles, but the Eagles are flying high on offense. It will be a big challenge for the Giants, but I think they hang around in this one.

The Post is picking the vising Eagles.

And here’s another number that could matter: We’re in mid-December, and the Eagles had just three names on their midweek injury report. So they are coming here at full strength, motivated by the Cowboys on their tail in the NFC East, after doing unspeakable things to Ryan Tannehill and Derrick Henry last week.

Greg Rosenthal is rolling with Philadelphia by two touchdowns.

Every Giants offensive touchdown feels like an upset. The offensive line loses matchups weekly, and Saquon Barkley is no longer breaking big plays. Darius Slayton and Isaiah Hodgins are doing credible work, but they are miscast as No. 1 and 2 receivers. They figure to be blanketed this week by James Bradberry and Darius Slay, leaving Daniel Jones scrambling for his life, per usual. At some point, teams that win primarily with scheme (like the Giants) get figured out.

Mike Florio and the company are picking Philadelphia.

Remember when the two upcoming games against the Giants were regarded as potential problems for the Eagles?

Florio’s pick: Eagles 34, Giants 17.
