PHILADELPHIA -- We've talked a lot about how poorly the Giants have played in the secondary the past two games, but the Eagles could also have some issues today. Sean Jones will replace rookie Macho Harris (ankle) at free safety.
I think there are members of the Eagles' coaching staff who'd like to see Quintin Demps get a chance to play himself back into Andy Reid's good graces, but he may be too far in the doghouse at this point. It took Jones a while to feel comfortable in the Eagles' defense, but he's looked a lot better the past couple of games. I still think his ball skills are pretty questionable -- and Eli Manning will know exactly where he's lining up.
If the Giants can get a one-on-one matchup with tight end Kevin Boss on Jones, the Eagles could be in trouble. I'll be hopping on NFL Nation Live quite a bit this afternoon. Hope to see you guys on there.
