Who is better, Eagles or Giants: Defense edition

by Jimmy Kempski

The Philadelphia Eagles' defense is better than the New York Giants' defense. That wasn't really a serious question that was posed in the headline. The Eagles had the No. 1 defense in the NFL in yards allowed, and were eighth in points allowed. The Giants were 25th in yards allowed, and 18th in points allowed. The advanced stats also liked the Eagles (4th EPA/play, 6th DVOA) better than the Giants (28th EPA/play, 29th DVOA).

Who is better, Eagles or Giants: Offense edition

by Jimmy Kempski

The Philadelphia Eagles' offense is better than the New York Giants' offense. That wasn't really a serious question that was posed in the headline. The Eagles scored 6.1 more points per game, gained 49.8 more yards per game. They were also advanced stats darlings (3rd EPA/play, 3rd DVOA), though the Giants certainly held their own (9th EPA/play, 10th DVOA). Still, just for fun, I thought we'd take a position-by-position look at each team on both sides of the ball. We'll start with the offense.

Wildcard round non-Eagles rooting guide

by Jimmy Kempski

Here we'll take a look at the wildcard round playoff games and determine the ideal winners for each of them.
