The Eagles should not get too carried away with picking up their second win in a game that saw the Giants drop to 0-5 on the season, but the defense made plays, special teams did their part and Nick Foles proved why the Eagles felt a need to keep him on the roster despite using Mike Vick as the starter.

I'm looking at five games in week 5 for us to pick from. Depending on which teams you've used to keep your pulse steady, your choice may differ.
