We’ve got an intriguing NFC East matchup for the Divisional Round, with the New York Giants taking on the Philadelphia Eagles.
There’s a major mismatch here between the Giants’ run defense and the Eagles’ rushing offense, giving us an opportunity to exploit the props market.
With that in mind, let’s dive into the top player and game props for the Giants vs Eagles NFC Divisional Round matchup.

Giants vs Eagles Player Props
Miles Sanders Over 66.5 Rushing Yards (-137) at Caesars Sportsbook
WAGER: 1 Unit
According to Football Outsiders, the Giants rank 32nd in Rush DVOA on defense, while the Eagles are the top rushing attack in the NFL.
This gives Sanders a great opportunity to rack up yardage here.
When these two teams met in Week 14, he rushed 17 times for 144 yards (8.5 yards per carry).
This sets up as a favorable game script for Sanders, as the Eagles are 7.5-point favorites, so they’re projected to play with the lead, which would result in more rushing volume.
Look for Sanders to approach 100 yards on the ground in this one.
Daniel Jones Over 44.5 Rushing Yards (-117) at Caesars Sportsbook
WAGER: 1 Unit
Jones has been terrific on the ground, averaging 44.3 rushing yards per game. The dual-threat quarterback was able to put up 78 yards on 17 carries against the Vikings in the wild-card round.
The fact that Jones got 17 carries bodes well for his rushing output. You have to love that volume moving forward.

The other angle here is that the Eagles have the top pass defense in the NFL, which could make it difficult for Jones to air it out. That means scrambling for yardage is likely to be a main plan of attack in the Giants’ game plan.
Look for Jones to have another game with 60-plus rushing yards here.
Giants vs Eagles Prop Bets
Eagles: Win by 7-12 Points (+390) at Caesars Sportsbook
WAGER: 1 Unit
I’m confident that the Eagles will be able to win this game by double-digits. However, if they end up winning by seven, failing to cover the 7.5-point spread, it’s nice to have this as insurance.
It’s going to be difficult for the Giants’ defense to slow down the Eagles here, so this looks like the top game prop on the board. Look for Sanders to gash them on the ground, keeping Philly in control throughout the game.
At +390 odds, we’re getting solid value on this margin of victory prop.
