Well, its the Giants again
Whack-A-Mole is a pretty simple game, you whack a mole that pops up, and the goal is to hit all of the rows of moles, consistently popping up. Essentially, you cannot whack all the moles, and they continually annoyingly jump out of their holes.
The Giants are one of those teams. The Eagles obliterated the Giants back in Week 14, crushing them in almost every stat category. Brandon Graham had three sacks and Miles Sanders rushed for 144 yards and two touchdowns. The Eagles generated four rushing touchdowns and 253 yards.

| Hurts and the Eagles dominated the Giants in Week 14 |
The Giants wisely played their backups, and managed only 16 points when New York visited the Linc. Jalen Hurts didn't play his best football, but nonetheless led his team to 22 points and the win.
The Giants just keep on popping up when the Eagles keep smacking them down. Philly swept New York this year, and are looking to close them out in the Divisional round. It should be noted that Daniel Jones has not played in Philly at all this year. The first time the Eagles took on the Daniel, they took him on at Metlife Stadium, and the second time the teams played, the Giants started Davis Webb as they were resting their starters.
It is highly likely that Jones forgot about Philly. The brutal, committed, fans who never give up on their team, even if they're going through rough times. The Wells Fargo Center gets loud. The Linc, even louder. In fact, according to SoundPrint, the average sound level of Lincoln Financial Field is 93 decibels. To put that in perspective, the average rock concert decibel level is between 90-120 decibels (according to Decibel Pro). The 93 decibels is the average sound. It can get MUCH louder!
The noise affects players, especially signal callers. But you have to give the Giants their props. They just beat a physical Vikings team, holding Justin Jefferson to only 47 yards. However, Jefferson is one of the most inconsistent players who is actually good. Jefferson finished the season with two games both under 40 receiving yards. Daniel Jones turned in a really good game tossing two touchdowns and 301 and rushing for 78 yards. However, Jones is a really incapable quarterback compared to Hurts. Hurts has more weapons to throw to, and those weapons include Dallas Goedert, DeVonta Smith, and A.J. Brown, each of who had a solid year.
The Giants just keep on keeping on like annoying moles. The question is, can Philly smack them down forever in the Divisional round and end their annoying popping.
