The 49ers will have two extra days off compared with either the Cowboys or the Buccaneers. I like our odds.

What's interesting is that the Eagles have beaten the Giants both times they played this year. They won 48-22 in week 14 and 22-16 in week 18, though the Giants were resting their starters the second time around. Supposedly, the Giants have kicked it into another gear. The Giants really did well against the Vikings this weekend, winning 31-24. Their defense looked strong, and was the best offensive performance of the season.

X Factor is Jalen Hurts, who is five weeks removed from a shoulder injury that sidelined him for two games.

Eagles have lost to the Cowboys and the Commanders. Could the Giants upset them, meaning the Niners get home field advantage until the Super Bowl.  Maybe.
