Weird, woeful NFC East featured on Thursday nighter … How weird is the NFC East this year. Figure it this way. The NY Giants are in Philadelphia tonight to play the Eagles in the weekly Thursday night game on the NFL Network. With a win the Giants can move into a technical tie for the division lead. With a loss, though, and the Giants would technically sit second in the 2021 draft selection order with a 1-6 record, at least until the other teams catch up. For the moment, the Giants hold the 3rd pick overall. Meanwhile, its not a whole lot better for the 1-4-1 Eagles, who will also move into the division lead with a win tonight, as they currently occupy the 9th pick overall were the draft held this week.
