Eagles Beat Giants In Monday Night Football

A tenacious defense bailed out Sam Bradford and made Eli Manning miserable. DeMarco Murray ran for 109 yards and a touchdown, Nolan Carroll II returned one of Manning's two interceptions for a score, and the Philadelphia Eagles beat the New York Giants 27-7 on Monday night.

The Eagles had three takeaways, sacked Manning three times and forced two intentional-grounding penalties.

"All the credit goes to them," Bradford said of Philadelphia's defense. "It seemed like every time we needed a stop or a big play, they created a lot of turnovers tonight. That always gives us a lot of momentum and always gives us juice."

Bradford threw for 280 yards, including a 32-yard touchdown pass to Riley Cooper, but had three interceptions to keep New York in the game. The Giants got zero points off the turnovers.

"We were stagnant," Giants coach Tom Coughlin said. "They did more with their opportunities than we did."

The Eagles (3-3) have won two straight to move from last place in the NFC East into a tie with the Giants (3-3) for first. The teams meet again in Week 17.

Neither team looked sharp in front of a prime-time audience. They combined for seven turnovers and 21 penalties.
