Defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo has guided his boys on D\u00a0to record 18 takeaways in their last nine games, while also holding teams\u00a0to under 100 yards on the ground seven times. They are 8-1 during that stretch (6-2-1 ATS).<\/p>\n<p>Offensively, although it is not currently as explosive as we thought, should still provide a threat. In that eight-game span, Eli Manning is averaging 234 YPG and has a 20-9 TD-INT ratio.<\/p>\n<p>For the Eagles, they went downhill after a 3-0 start, as they lost nine of their next 11 to end up 5-9 through Week 15. Still, there shouldn&#8217;t be any worries, since they have great, young pieces to work with, which starts with Carson Wentz. The rookie is\u00a0posting impressive\u00a0stats as a rookie play-caller &#8211; 241.8 YPG and a 13-13 TD-INT ratio.<\/p>\n<p>Philly will enter the game with a good momentum on their running game. Against a well-respected Ravens defense in Week 15, Ryan Matthews led the ground attack and ran for 128 of the team&#8217;s 169 rushing yards.<\/p>\n<h3>Writer&#8217;s Prediction<\/h3>\n<p>The Giants (<a href=\"http:\/\/topbet.eu\/sportsbook\/basketball\/nba\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>-3<\/strong><\/a>)\u00a0win, 24-20<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>San Antonio Spurs at Los Angeles Clippers\u00a0(10:30 PM\u00a0ET)<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Line:<\/strong>\u00a0San Antonio Spurs (<a href=\"http:\/\/topbet.eu\/sportsbook\/basketball\/nba\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>-1<\/strong><\/a>)\u00a0at Los Angeles Clippers\u00a0(<a href=\"http:\/\/topbet.eu\/sportsbook\/basketball\/nba\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>+1<\/strong><\/a>); total <a href=\"http:\/\/topbet.eu\/sportsbook\/basketball\/nba\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>205.5<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0\u2013 <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/topbet.eu\/sportsbook\/basketball\/nba\" target=\"_blank\">view all NBA lines<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Spurs will be bringing their\u00a0great team chemistry and even greater road record (15-1 SU, 10-5-1 ATS)\u00a0to Staples Center.<\/p>\n<p>In trying to further improve the stat, expect Kawhi Leonard (23.9 PPG), LaMarcus Aldridge (16.6 PPG), and the rest of their supporting cast to once again provide efficiency on both sides of the floor. Together, they are powering the Spurs to be in the top seven of both offensive and defensive rankings.<\/p>\n<p>The Clippers, meanwhile, are in search for someone to step up in place of the injured Blake Griffin (knee). JJ Redick (15.5 PPG) and Jamal Crawford (11.8 PPG on 25.1 MPG) should be both eyed to do so, but Chris Paul will likely have to do more scoring, along with being smarter in setting up teammates.<\/p>\n<p>Doc Rivers and his men have a fifth-ranked offense and and a sixth-ranked defense. In addition, they are top six in points (109.9 PPG) and points allowed (101.6).<\/p>\n<p>The Clipps have been pretty good at home SU (10-4), but they are underachieveing ATS (8-6).<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/record.tbaffiliate.com\/_y8k7RB3Ll4xutv7iXV6HvmNd7ZgqdRLk\/6\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"broken_link\" rel=\"nofollow\">Create a betting account now<\/a>, and don\u2019t forget to bet on today\u2019s best games.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/record.tbaffiliate.com\/_y8k7RB3Ll4zX172zxPL8HmNd7ZgqdRLk\/20\"><img class=\"size-full wp-image-89017 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/topbet.eu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/NBA-News-Banner_620x110_v31.gif\" alt=\"NBA-News-Banner_620x110_v3\" width=\"620\" height=\"110\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"pvc_clear\"><\/div>\n<p class=\"pvc_stats all \" data-element-id=\"128236\" style=\"\"><i class=\"pvc-stats-icon medium\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" data-prefix=\"far\" data-icon=\"chart-bar\" role=\"img\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 512 512\" class=\"svg-inline--fa fa-chart-bar fa-w-16 fa-2x\"><path fill=\"currentColor\" d=\"M396.8 352h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V108.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v230.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zm-192 0h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V140.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v198.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zm96 0h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V204.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v134.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zM496 400H48V80c0-8.84-7.16-16-16-16H16C7.16 64 0 71.16 0 80v336c0 17.67 14.33 32 32 32h464c8.84 0 16-7.16 16-16v-16c0-8.84-7.16-16-16-16zm-387.2-48h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8v-70.4c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v70.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8z\" class=\"\"><\/path><\/svg><\/i> &nbsp;1,971&nbsp;total views<\/p>\n<div class=\"pvc_clear\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thursday is like any other day in sports, as it features an exciting set of games, but for THIS Thursday, there are two you should probably get your money on.<\/p>\n<div class=\"pvc_clear\"><\/div>\n<p class=\"pvc_stats all \" data-element-id=\"128236\" style=\"\"><i class=\"pvc-stats-icon medium\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" data-prefix=\"far\" data-icon=\"chart-bar\" role=\"img\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 512 512\" class=\"svg-inline--fa fa-chart-bar fa-w-16 fa-2x\"><path fill=\"currentColor\" d=\"M396.8 352h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V108.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v230.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zm-192 0h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V140.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v198.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zm96 0h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V204.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v134.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zM496 400H48V80c0-8.84-7.16-16-16-16H16C7.16 64 0 71.16 0 80v336c0 17.67 14.33 32 32 32h464c8.84 0 16-7.16 16-16v-16c0-8.84-7.16-16-16-16zm-387.2-48h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8v-70.4c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v70.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8z\" class=\"\"><\/path><\/svg><\/i> &nbsp;1,971&nbsp;total views<\/p>\n<div class=\"pvc_clear\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"author":31,"featured_media":111914,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[375,112,393,42,3],"tags":[18734,21445,491,8,21447,6317,71,488,21446],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v16.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Best Games to Bet on: Giants vs Eagles &amp;
