by Matt Foust on Sunday, December 19th, 2010

The NFC East title is, most likely, on the line today as the New York Giants play host to the first place Eagles. The game between the two bitter rivals is scheduled to get underway at 1:00pm ET at the New Meadowlands Stadium; it will be broadcast live on FOX. NFL Week 15 Picks have the Giants listed as a -3 against the spread home favorite and the game total set at 47.

Philadelphia ran its record to 9-4 last NFL Week 15 Picks: Philadelphia Eagles vs New York Giants Oddsweekend with a 30-27 victory over the Cowboys in Dallas. The win, which was the Eagles fifth in their last six games, saw Philly rack up 429 total yards, including 171 on the ground as LeSean McCoy carried the ball 16 times for 149 yards.

Michael Vick threw for 270 yards, two touchdowns, and two interceptions in the win, and he also connected with DeSean Jackson on a 91 yard fourth quarter touchdown that qualified as the longest play from scrimmage this season. Jackson, who is listed as questionable for today's contest with a sprained ankle, finished the game with four catches for 210 yards.

Philadelphia, if it can win today, would own a one game lead over the Giants as well as the tiebreaker with two head-to-head wins. The Eagles, which are 5-2 on the road this season, close out the season with home games against the Vikings and Cowboys.

New York won its third straight game on Monday night with a 21-3 thrashing of the Minnesota Vikings. The lopsided affair, which took place at Ford Field in Detroit, improved the Giants record to 9-4 and preserved their sixth place seeding in the NFC overall standings (a game ahead of the Bucs and Packers).

The Giants defense, which has limited its last three opponents to 30 combined points, held the Brett Favre-less Vikings to 10 first downs and 164 total yards of offense. The defensive effort helped New York overcome a 22-of-37, 187 yard, two interception night from Eli Manning.

New York, which owns a 5-2 record at the New Meadowlands Stadium, will close out its season with road games at Green Bay and at Washington.
