      Hedge. Why would you not? Atleast make it so you win $25 if the eagles win and minimize your risk.

          look for a type of play where you may win both sides
          lets say you have the giants at +4.5 right and if they win you get 675 what you wagered to get here is irrelevant
          So if giants cover +4.5 you get 675
          If you have the Giants +5 this will really work

          Here is an idea
          Eagles -10.5 (+205) adjusted line bet 150 to win 300
          Eagles to win by 4-6 bet 40 to win 300
          eagles win by 7-10 bet 60 to win 300

          in this situation if the eagles win by 4 you win both sides and pick up 765
          if the Giants cover you win 425
          But it depends on how the margin of victory lines are layed out
          This allows you to hedge your bet and possibly win both sides if eagles win by 4 which is definitely possible Like 27-23 can happen
