Preview Cowboys vs Giants


The rematch, the final battle in the regular season, Giants seeking revenge, Cowboys looking to get back a winning record. The first game was a great one for the Cowboys and a terrible one for the Giants. The Cowboys looked dangerous at offense and defense while the Giants struggled in both offense and defense. This game the Cowboys will look to prove who they really are since they have been inconsistent the whole season. While the Giants who have looked like its former champion selves that past few weeks, look to stay undefeated in the new Cowboys stadium. 

The Giants looked to have a Super bowl hangover the first few weeks. The first game was very disappointing especially since it was at home. But since then the Giants have been improving and look dangerous. Eli Manning has been playing much better lately, while Bradshaw who just came off an injury, has been a very effective runner. Not to mention the defense who have also been improving. The defensive line is starting to get more pressure on the quarter backs, and the secondary, which lost many players due to injuries in the beginning of the season, is coming back and improving. But they are still giving up a lot of points, Manning has had to make a lot of comebacks to get those 5 wins. The Giants really need to focus on the defense in order to win this game.

The Cowboys after week 1 have been up and down. Getting blown out by the Seahawks, barely beating the Bucs, losing to the Bears and Ravens, and then barely beating the Panthers. It seems that the Cowboys players played their best in week 1 but then haven’t played their best since. I will leave the defense out of this though. They are doing a great job and are much improved from last year. But the turnovers keep happening, the run game is not happening, and the fouls keep getting called. The Cowboys need to show who they can be and who they are this Sunday. Romo needs to stop the turnovers. The offensive line really needs to stop the false starts. And yes Murray is out, but we all saw what Felix Jones did in the Ravens game a few weeks back, he needs to be able to step up in this key game for the Cowboys.

For this game I think the Cowboys will be able to to get the win and sweep the Giants. The main thing that hurt them in the first game was the offensive line, and the Cowboys have improved it a ton. They did not give up a single sack last game, which was giving Romo plenty of time to find an open receiver. Now the turnovers have been getting better since the Bears game, and Jones should be able to produce. And the Giants, well they have not been perfect, the defense is still giving up a lot of points as I mentioned. If the Romo and his offense is in sync, and the defense plays like it has been, I think the Cowboys will give the Giants their first loss in the new Cowboys stadium.
Cowboys win 21-17
