We should have a couple guys back for the Giants game. Neal should be back, so that means less snaps for Jaylon and LVE.

I don't believe the Giants are a good football team. I believe we are clearly the better team, but at the end of the day anybody can win. This is a divisional rival and those games can always be weird.

I believe this group of guys have a different mentality about them then they did in the Garrett era. They don't seem satisfied after a big win and then come out a lay an egg the next game. I was worried about this Carolina game because of that. My mindset is still stuck with the way Garrett ran things, but I'm slowly getting out of that mindset.

Even Jerry, yes Jerry, is talking about "one game at a time". I couldn't believe it. Because he's usually the first one to start acting like we're Super Bowl bound. Everyone seems to have the right mindset in the locker room and they know that there is a looooong ways to go.

This game should be a easy win for the cowboys
Usually , I wouldn't be so over confident but there seems to have been a culture change within the cowboys locker room. Also , I believe the giants
Just won their first game of the season and gave up over a hundred yards rushing to the saints

Divisional games aren’t a betters paradise. Even when the Cowboys were wining Super Bowls, the Cardinals would play them to the death till the final snap. Don’t expect to see Dak and Zeke resting on the bench midway in the 4th quarter with a massive lead......but it would be great

7.5 point favorites. Really shouldn't be all that close but stranger things have happened in divisional games.

I wouldn't bet ANYTHING on the Cowboys with McCarthy as coach lol...he'll have you lose all your money based on a last second score lol.

Need to keep the pressure on Danny Dimes, yesterday when we attacked Darnold we got sacks and turnovers …
But when played soft we gave up points.
If we play well, we’ll win this by at least 2 scores.

Yeah I know we probably shouldn't be but I've watched the Giants...they have their issues but I'm concerned that they may be able to move the ball. To me Darnold and Jones are the same caliber and if it wasn't for that 3rd quarter of dominance against Darnold? Outcome could've been different.

Cowboy 38 Giants 17.

Im not sure this offence can be contained for 60 minutes. And to me what makes our o even more dangerous is that it appears tha Jarwin and Shultz are turning into solid red one players.

it’s pick your poison. Load the box to stop the run, Dak picks you apart with any number of available weapons. Drop the d to defend the pass Elliot and Pollard will burn you.

This teams fun to watch.

If we play our game we should smoke this team.

Having said that Jones running is really the only thing that scares me. That dude can run just as well as Lamar Jackson which seems weird.

It's never easy in the NFL and it's never easy for the Cowboys and this week will be no different. Danny Dimes runs well and that will be the great equalizer for the Gmen.

Our boys cannot take this game for granted!

It is because he's not nearly as fast as Lamar.....but you look up and he'll have 80 rushing yards. I can't call it lol.

on paper we are better, but like you said, its a division game and you never know....the familiarity is a key part of the game. I remember back in campo era, we sucked and yet we beat washington 3 straight years, 6 straight wins I believe and they were a playoff team.....

but I see barkley as a match up problem specially as a reciever where we have struggled a bit on defense. we have been suspect to screen passes and RBs catching out of the back field.

I think we are going to focus on stopping Barkley (well duh), and force Jones to beat us....he hasn't been good against pass rush, and look for us to continue that trend to pressure QBs...

we should dominate this game. I like to see a game similar to Philly game....get them down and keep your foot on their necks to the end. no let ups. no relaxing....
