Daniel Jones, James Bradberry, and the Giants will make the trip down the New Jersey Turnpike for a Thursday Night Football matchup with Carson Wentz, Fletcher Cox and the Eagles. This is a rivalry that has been dominated by Philly over the past few years. Having to play at Lincoln Financial Field off a short week is not going to be easy. Jones cannot turn the ball over and give the Eagles’ offense extra opportunities. The Giants’ defense is probably going to have a hard-enough time slowing down Wentz as it is, so giving him a short field to work with is a recipe for disaster. In order to stop Philly’s offense, the Giants’ front seven will need to put pressure on him. The Eagles’ offensive line has been somewhat vulnerable so far this season, and Patrick Graham must take advantage of this weakness. Even if Jones is able to limit the turnovers, he could still have a rough night. Philly’s intimidating front seven will give him plenty of problems if the Giants’ offensive line fails to effectively block them. Here are TGI’s keys to victory against Philadelphia:
