Heroes and zeros of the Giants’ 38-20 loss to the Eagles on Sunday:
Hero
The much-maligned Jalen Hurts took advantage of a secondary littered with backups and threw for 179 yards and four touchdowns before taking the final series off.
Zero
The vaunted Giants defensive line was carved up for 276 rushing yards by Saquon Barkley (150 yards), Tank Bigsby (104 yards) and Hurts (22).

Unsung Hero
