The New York Giants are playing the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday night football and the game for Week 6 is on TV from ESPN and has a live stream from WatchESPN online. The game from Lincoln Financial Field starts at 8:30 pm ET as Eli Manning and company try and keep their winning streak going and first place in the NFC East.
The division is wide open this season, as the Cowboys are dealing with injuries and no one has been all that impressive through this chunk of the schedule. The Cowboys have Tony Romo and Dez Bryant out, while the Eagles are 2-3 behind the Giants with the Cowboys, who are on a bye, and the Redskins lost to fall to 2-4 on the year. The Giants have won three in a row after starting 0-2 and getting a fourth win in a row would be huge heading into the game against the Cowboys.
The Eagles are looking to get back to .500 after starting the season 1-3 and they could put themselves in position for a strong run with a win on Monday night. The Eagles have dominated the Giants since Chip Kelly came in to take over in Philly, as the team has outscored New York by over 40 points in four games and they have won three of those contests. The Giants linebackers are dealing with some injuries and that could be one area that the Eagles offense will try to attack on Monday night.

Jon Beason may play, but he is coming in after a concussion and that could keep him limited even if he does suit up. The Eagles have versatility at the tight end position with Brent Celek, Zach Ertz and James Casey and Sam Bradford could look at those players for an advantage, especially with Nelson Agholor out and Ryan Mathews questionable for the game. Demarco Murray appears to have his groove back, but if Mathews can't go that will be a big hit for the Eagles. Jordan Matthews should get some targets on Monday, as the Giants secondary is beat up with Price Amukamara out.
The Giants are dealing with some injuries on offense, as Odell Beckham and Rueben Randle are both banged up coming into Monday night. The Giants are hopeful that Beckham can play and he made the trip with the team to Philly. Randle is probable for the game and both players are dealing with hamstring injuries. The Giants had Beckham leave the game last week against the 49ers, but he was able to return in the fourth quarter and helped the team drive down the field for the winning score. The Eagles said they have prepared as if Beckham will play.
