LANDOVER: It was anything but pretty. But this Eagles team will take the win regardless.

How bad did the Eagles want this game? Several players […]
Giants defensive end Olivier Vernon is a man of few words. His answers mirror his play on the field and that is he takes a straight line from point “A” to “B.” That’s it, don’t like it? Too bad. Vernon was drafted by the Miami Dolphins in the third round of the 2012 NFL Draft. […]

Giants receiver Brandon Marshall talks about his health and the start of the season, his first with the Giants.
“Yeah. I’ll be out there. I feel good other than that hit I had in Cleveland, the body feels amazing. This is probably the only camp that I’ve had where I really didn’t have anything.
