PHILADELPHIHA (AP) — The Giants rested their key starters Sunday at Philadelphia to keep them healthy for an NFC playoff game next week against Minnesota. The Eagles beat the Giants 22-16. The final score was largely immaterial to New York on Sunday night. The Giants already secured the No. 6 seed in the NFC and just needed to get through the game to learn their playoff opponent. The Vikings beat the Giants 27-24 on a last-second field goal just two week ago.
