Philadelphia's no huddle offense has gone bust down the stretch as NFL defenses have adjusted. In their last three games (all losses), they have scored 27, 14 and 24 points. You have to put some blame on backup QB Mark Sanchez as he now has 12 TDs and 10 picks. Coach Chip Kelly said he'll give another start to Sanchez rather than give backup Matt Barkley a shot. Sanchez has 14 turnovers in eight games, including a late interception that led to Washington's game-winning field goal last week. New York is off three wins in a row, and the UNDER is 19-8 following a Giants win, as well as 18-7 UNDER the total after a spread cover. The defense has helped fuel the run allowing 47 points total the last three games. The Giants, out of the playoffs for the fifth time in six seasons, are determined to close with a better performance against their hated rivals. They can match last season's record with a win Sunday. New York is 5-1 UNDER the total in December and 10-2 UNDER the total after scoring more than 30 points in their previous game. The weather won't help either offense Sunday, with a 50% chance of rain showers. Plus, when these NFC East rivals square off, the UNDER is 5-2 the last seven meetings. Under Tom Coughlin, the Giants are 48-34-2 UNDER after a game that went OVER the total. Take this game to go UNDER.
