Fates of Brian Daboll, Joe Schoen hang in balance ahead of final Giants game
NY Post
PHILADELPHIA — All inconsequential games are not created equal.
The regular-season finale that goes down Sunday afternoon at Lincoln Financial Field features two teams with nothing tangible to play for, no real reward for the winner and no dire repercussions for the loser.
It is not that big of a deal — or a big deal at all — if the Eagles drop this one at home, and it is not especially newsworthy if the Giants come out ahead in their last road game.
The reasons why this does not matter much for either side is what separates these teams.
The Eagles (13-3) are moving onward and upward, resting their starters having already captured the NFC East title and the No. 2 seed in the conference.
They will play a playoff game at the Linc next weekend, and there is no reason whatsoever for them to risk anyone (we see you, Saquon Barkley) or anything that might compromise their chances to move deeper into the postseason.
