The New York Giants arrived at Lincoln Financial Field on Sunday afternoon hoping to extend their NFC East lead over a Philadelphia Eagles team on a six-game losing streak.

In a rocky affair marked by several quarterback changes and struggling offenses from both sides, the Giants eked out a win over the sagging Eagles to improve to 5-2-1. It was Big Blue's first victory in the City of Brotherly Love in 13 games.

Here's a look at some studs and duds from Sunday's 19-11 victory over the Eagles.

Stud: LB Arvell Reese

The rookie put on a solid display, leading the Giants with 12 tackles (10 solo), with three sacks and a forced fumble. He is not only on his way for possible DROY honors, but he could also be making a bid for a Pro Bowl nod.

Dud: Offensive line

They looked out of sync all afternoon,

with no push in the run game (2.6 yards per carry) and allowed nine QB hits and six sacks. When you don't win up front, you usually don't win at all. They were fortunate. Much room for improvement here.

Stud: QB Jameis Winston

No one expected to see Jameis in this game, but he provided much-needed relief when starter J.J. McCarthy was temporarily knocked from the game in the third quarter. Winston completed six of eight passes for 71 yards and the Giants' only touchdown, a 5-yard toss to tight end Isaiah Likely. He also rushed twice for 11 yards.

Dud: RB Devin Singletary

With Cam Skattebo (hamstring) inactive, Singletary served as the Giants' lead back in this game. He got very little traction, rushing for 31 yards on 21 attempts (1.5 YPC) and added eight yards on two receptions.

Stud: K Dominic Zvada

It was a perfect day for the embattled rookie, making all four field goal attempts from 53, 49, 38, and 49 yards, and converting his only point-after attempt.

Stud: LB Micah McFadden

McFadden had another strong game with nine total tackles, one for a loss, two QB hits, a sack, and a fumble recovery. The Giants are patting themselves on the back after bringing him back as a free agent this summer.
