no nfl game is easy and especially divisional games. Need to game plan for Jones running ability as has showed he can beat teams with his legs. The giants defense isn't bad and you can make an argument they could be at least 3-1 or 2-2 at the worst. They are better than their 1-3 record.

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.

Barkley had a better game yesterday also. His knee is getting back to 100%. However, it was against the Saints, as I do not believe the Saints are as good as their 2-2 record.

We ain't the Saints (they're obviously not that good despite smashing GB). Let's go out and smash 'em in the mouth! Philbin and this OL are playing in the stratosphere!
We split with 'em last year but this ain't the 2020 Cowboys!

Game the Cowboys should win. I think the Cowboys do win it, but divisional games will be dangerous, always.

I think Barkley tests this defense. Cowboys have been vulnerable on zone runs and cut backs, and that's what Saquon excels at. Cowboys will get gashed here and there, but need to be ready to put Danny Dimes on the ground, as he is prone to putting the ball on the dirt. Offensively cowboys should drop 30 points again.

Should be a beatdown, but in reality I think the giants are better on paper than they've looked. Jones has actually been playing much better than given credit for, and saquon for all his issues is definitely a threat. Throw in galloday, and them recognizing why they drafted toney, and they have some weapons.

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 will be emotional for Dak. The team needs to be dialed in because the Giants do have some good skills players. Hopefully we get Gallup back because then we can challenge their defense on every level. I think the Giants are the second best team in the East to us when it comes to talent. Their weakness is their offensive line and Garrett’s conservative play calls.

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.
So much for the best defense in the league. Our run game ran down the clock with 4+ minutes left in the game. That's how to close out a game. Ram-rod football. I love it.

Giants are a little banged up at WR. Not sure if they will return this week.

Division games are important, almost like a game and a half.

Especially since this is our last one until December.

This is all about stopping Barkley. He is 100%. We better have all hands on deck.

100% guaranteed Shep and Slayton play. They won’t miss this

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!

Need Jaylon/Cox to spy Danny Dimes. Let their guard down with Darnold and ran for two TDs.

Nothing is ever easy for the Cowboys and this being a rivalry game I’d expect a close game. On paper it shouldn’t be but we know how that goes.
