The Giants’ season has been rough, but even with all the issues Tommy DeVito’s team still had a slim chance of a late playoff push when they played the Saints last Sunday. Unfortunately for Giants fans, they lost, and with a record of 5-9 New York’s postseason dreams need a Christmas miracle.
For the second game of the NFL’s Christmas Day triple-header, Big Blue heads down to Philadelphia to take on the Eagles, who at 10-4 already clinched a playoff spot, but find themselves locked in a battle with the Cowboys for the NFC East title. The game is crucial for the Eagles’ playoff seeding, as in addition to being tied in the standings with Dallas they’re also tied with the Detroit Lions and a game behind the 49ers for the top NFC spot.
Kickoff for Monday’s game is set for 4:30 p.m. ET (1:30 p.m. PT) on Fox. Here’s how you can watch or stream even if you don’t have cable.

Livestream the Giants vs. Eagles game in the US
Christmas Day’s Giants-Eagles game is on Fox, so your local Fox affiliate will carry the game. In addition to cable, satellite and an over-the-air antenna — which lets you watch Fox for free — you can also watch the game live using a streaming service. The least expensive such service is Sling TV Blue. Most live TV streaming services including YouTube TV and Hulu Plus Live TV also carry your local Fox station (see below), but they’re a lot more expensive.
You can also subscribe to NFL Plus, the NFL’s own streaming service at $7 per month, but streams are limited to just watching on a phone or tablet (not a TV).
Hulu Plus Live TV costs $77 a month and includes Fox in most markets. On its live news page, you can enter your ZIP code under the “Can I watch local news in my area?” question at the bottom of the page to see which local channels you get. Read our Hulu with Live TV review.
