EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- Even with Eli Manning toying with Philadelphias secondary for much of the game, the New York Giants barely held off the Eagles on Sunday.Manning threw for four touchdowns and New Yorks defense had two interceptions and three stops on fourth downs to beat Philadelphia 28-23 on Sunday.Philadelphia, the last few years, has had our number, said Manning, whose team had lost five of the last six to the Eagles. Weve played close games, but havent been able to win those close games. So to be able to pull it off today and get that win was nice.The Giants (5-3) won their third straight game, stopping the Eagles (4-4 after a 3-0 start) from the New York 17 after Manning was intercepted with less than two minutes to go.At the end of the game you have to go out there with confidence, confident that you are going to stop them, said cornerback Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie. We have been playing well in games and when they get the ball down there and our backs are against the wall, we know we have to stand up.Two of Mannings touchdowns went to Odell Beckham Jr., with the others to Roger Lewis Jr. and Sterling Shepard .It was a game marked by big plays on offense -- six of more than 30 yards in the first half alone- and defense (four interceptions) and special teams (Jason Pierre-Pauls block of a field goal , Darren Sproles 66-yard punt return). Most of Sunday, it was a mismatch of Manning and his receiving corps against a sieve of an Eagles secondary. New York picked on every Philly defensive back, with the biggest Leodis McKelvin, no matter who he tried to cover.Less than two minutes in, Landon Collins made his third interception in the last two games; he had one pick as a rookie last year. Manning found Beckham on a slant after McKelvin failed to bump him at the line, and Beckham surged into the end zone for a 26-yard score.Andrew Adams, a rookie safety from UConn, had no interceptions in his previous five games. He sure knew what to do with the ball after hauling in Carson Wentzs high pass moments later, returning it 19 yards. Manning hit Lewis three plays later after McKelvin and Jaylen Watkins collided and it was 14-0.Mannings third TD throw came on a 1-yard jump ball to Beckham over McKelvin to make it 21-10.Wentz looked like a rookie from an FCS school in the first half, often appearing befuddled by coverages. Twice, the Eagles failed on short fourth downs while in field goal range.But he came out of halftime a different player , quickly guiding the Eagles 70 yards to Kenjon Barners 3-yard TD run.Manning, though, was just as precise and decisive on the ensuing drive, capped by his fourth TD throw, 32 yards to rookie Shepard. That gave Manning his first four-TD game since Game 14 last season.Wentz remained much sharper in the second half, leading the Eagles to two field goals by Caleb Sturgis. But Philly went 3 for 15 on third downs, 1 for 4 on fourth downs.MALCOLMS MESSAGE: Eagles players said veteran safety Malcolm Jenkins spoke up in the locker room after the game, saying they needed to learn how to finish games.Speaking for the defense, whose two interceptions in the fourth quarter resulted in no points, Jenkins said: Are you giving your team a chance to win defensively? There were a couple of plays here and there (early in the game) we feel weve got to have back. Those small mistakes -- there might be only one or two -- for our team to win we need to make those plays.ELIS COMING: Manning moved into ninth place in career yards passing with 46,428. Manning, in his 13th NFL season, threw for 257 yards against Philadelphia. He passed Vinny Testaverde, who had 46,233 yards through the air.ROOKIE FIRSTS: In addition to Adams first interception, Eagles WR Bryce Treggs made his first NFL reception, an 11-yarder on a field goal drive. It got even better for the undrafted rookie from Cal when his 58-yard reception set up Philadelphias first touchdown. Treggs was in the lineup because Josh Huff was released after being charged with possession of a handgun without a permit and having a small amount of marijuana during a traffic stop.INJURIESGiants WR Victor Cruz hurt an ankle in the first half, and LG Justin Pugh sprained his right knee in the second quarter. Neither returned. Eagles safety Terrence Brooks left with a hamstring issue.UP NEXT:Philadelphia hosts Atlanta next Sunday.New York hosts Cincinnati on Monday night, Nov. 14.---For more NFL coverage: http://www.pro32.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFL Adidas Reilly Smith Jersey . -- Claudio Bieler hadnt scored since early September, and not from the run of play since mid-July.

William Carrier Jersey .com) - The Montreal Canadiens will try to halt their longest losing streak of the season when they host the struggling New York Islanders in tonights clash at the Bell Centre. NEW YORK -- Rick Nash came up big in the third period for the New York Rangers.Nash tied the score with a highlight-reel goal in the opening minute of the third and then set up Jimmy Veseys winner later in the period to rally the Rangers from two goals down for a 3-2 victory over the Carolina Hurricanes on Tuesday night.After cutting a 2-0 first-period deficit in half in the second, Nash tied it 24 seconds into the third as he raced up ice, breezed past two Hurricanes defenders and stuck a backhander off the crossbar and in to tie it.Then, with 5:12 remaining in regulation and the Rangers on a power play, Nash slipped the puck under Carolina goalie Cam Ward across the front of the goal to Vesey, and the rookie forward converted with the go-ahead score.I think when youre a leader and youre expected to be one of the top players, you try to do that every night, Nash said. Some nights its there, some nights its not. . But I know thats part of my game, that I have to help these guys and lift them when things arent going right.Veseys goal was his eighth of the season and first since Nov. 12.Nick Holden also scored and Henrik Lundqvist stopped 19 shots to help the Rangers snap a four-game skid at home (0-3-1).Viktor Stalberg scored twice in the first period in his return to New York for the first time since leaving the Rangers to sign with Carolina in the offseason. Cam Ward finished with 25 saves as the Hurricanes lost for the third time in four games.For two periods we were by far the better team and didnt allow much of anything aside from the one goal and a couple other chances on the break, Stalberg said. Other than that, they didnt have any zone time. We were putting pressure on them every single shift. Frustrating ending here.On the tiebreaking goal, the Rangers had the man-advantage because Hurricanes defenseman Ron Hainsey was serving a double-minor for hooking and unsportsmanlike conduct. Vesey converted 95 seconds into the four-minute power play.Youre going to get calls and youre going to get calls against you, Stalberg continued. It is what it is. Were not happy about it, but we should find a way to kill it off.Stalberg got the Blue Jackets on the scoreboard 5:22 into the first period as he fired a wrist shot between Lundqvists legs.Stallberg made it 2-0 with 7:05 left in the period.ddddddddddddAfter Rangers defenseman Kevin Klein turned the puck over, Jay McClement shot the loose puck toward the net and Stalberg knocked in the rebound for his sixth of the season and fourth in five games.Holden cut the deficit in half at 9:13 of the second as he elevated a wrist shot over Wards outstretched arm for his third of the season. Holden has three goals and seven assists in the last 16 games.We didnt start off the game the way we wanted, Rangers coach Alain Vigneault said after his 270th game with the team, passing Colin Campbell for sole possession of ninth place on the franchises all-time list. You get behind the 8-ball against a hardworking team that can check real well, you need some people to come out and take charge.In recent games, the Rangers have struggled to play with the speed and skill that propelled them to the top of the standings through the first quarter of the season. However, that changed in the second period.I think the second period we started to get things going, playing with speed and getting possession, holding on to pucks down low in their end, Vesey said. We got the first one and they mightve tightened up. We talked about it before the game, but it was a big two points against an Eastern Conference team.The Rangers have won 12 straight games against the Hurricanes at Madison Square Garden and are 20-3-0 against Carolina since Feb. 22, 2011.Game notes The Rangers granted a Make-A-Dream Come True experience for 11-year-old Bryce Rogerson from New York Presbyterian and Make-A-Wish Hudson Valley.
