The New York Giants and Philadelphia Eagles will wrap up their 2015 seasons today at MetLife Stadium and we have all the information you’ll need for the game.

The New York Giants will be wrapping up their disappointing 2015 season by hosting their NFC East rival Philadelphia Eagles in the season finale Week 17. Both the Giants and Eagles will be entering this game with 6-9 records, so they have nothing but pride to play for as each team wants to defeat their rival and end the campaign on a high note.

The first meeting of the season went the Eagles’ way, as they manhandled the Giants 27-7. The Giants were unable to get anything going offensively after a very strong opening drive, as the tide of the game turned after an Eli Manning pass to Larry Donnell was ripped out of his hands for an interception. Everything went downhill for the Giants from that point on in the game, as they didn’t get anything going after that.

That could be looked at as a turning point of sorts in the season for the Giants as well, as they have managed to win only three games since that matchup. The Giants will be looking to end the current two-game losing streak and snap their three-game losing streak to the Eagles.

The Eagles will be playing this game without Chip Kelly, who was fired earlier in the week. Pat Shurmur will take over as head coach for the game, as the Eagles will undoubtedly be undergoing a face lift in the front office, coaching staff and roster.

This could also be the last time we see Tom Coughlin on the sidelines for the Giants. There are rumors swirling that Coughlin, 70 years old, will announce his retirement on Monday and put the Giants in the same position that the Eagles are in; looking for a new face to lead the team on the sidelines.

If that is the case, you can be sure the Giants will want to send Coughlin off into the sunset with a victory. That will be a much easier thing to accomplish with Odell Beckham Jr. back in the lineup. He missed last week’s embarrassing loss to the Minnesota Vikings as he served a one-game suspension from his role with Josh Norman against the Carolina Panthers. The Giants offense was lost without their most talented player and he will make things easier.

Will this be the last time we see Coughlin on the Giants sideline? Will they end the season on a high note with a victory, or suffer a loss and get a better draft pick? You’ll have to tune in to find out, as the Giants and Eagles face off to finish up the 2015 season for both teams. Can’t figure out where to find the game? Don’t worry; we have you covered with all the information that you will need.
