The Eagles are 5-7 and the woeful Giants are 2-10, and yet there is a fair amount of intrigue surrounding tonight's Monday Night Football matchup between these two teams in Philadelphia. After losing his starting job, Eli Manning will take the helm once more at quarterback due to Daniel Jones' high ankle sprain.

Can Manning muster any of that old magic to end the Giants' 8-game losing streak? Or will the Eagles ruin his comeback and claw back in a sorry NFC East that has the Cowboys atop the division at 6-7?

Right now the Eagles are favored by 9.5 points, after the line opened at 8.5 points, so it doesn't seem like the oddsmakers are convinced that Manning will make a huge difference.

Here's how to watch the Giants vs Eagles live stream on MNF, including tips on finding a good VPN service if you're out of the country when these two teams square off.
