Good thing the NFL was making the schedules more fairIf patriots and rams are correct, that’s playing both conference champions in 4 days.
Good thing our coaching staff is great.
Yep, I am fine with it and the Giants' fans second favorite team is whoever is playing the Cowboys so they're getting a double.We have a schedule of 16 games. We have to play them all at some point. It doesn't make a difference to me whom our opener is against. Of course the order matters in terms of you'd rather have tougher road games earlier and colder area road games earlier. I get why some could get tired of the Giants game always being the first or second game and at home usually but the ratings say people love it. I think our games with the Giants are always the most entertaining out of our East rivals. They aren't the best team but the games are always the most fun.
Simple, ratings. The game is among the highest rated of opening weekend and they like the positive sell of that to the fans.I can't help but wonder why in the world the NFL sees fit to have the 'Boys play vs. the Giants practically each and every year. It certainly does seem as though they'd want to deviate from that routine way more than they do. After it occurs several times in a row, it gets boringly repetitive, although, as a 'Boys fan, I'll admit, I like the idea of starting the season off with a win. Nevertheless, it's a mixed feeling that repeats altogether too often!

If I were them, I'd keep doing it until it wasn't a success and they've got a pretty good matchup to promote, 2 of the 3 best RB's in the game squaring off. And Manning wanted to start off his final season as a Giant starter in the "house that Eli built".
Oh, and completely do away with tradition???To each his own. The Cowboys opening game is a success, regardless of whom they oppose. More variety would be suit me better.
Done. Its a 1325 hr game on the left coast.Supposedly Cowboys at the Giants Monday Night November 4th.
Rams for Thanksgiving?
Don't forget that the Rams will probably be coming off a bye week...so we start out game one division foe, 3 of four on the road, Rams Thanksgiving, right most likely after a Sunday night game in the middle of a long stretch, ridiculous as usual trying to find ways to put it to us.well I wanted rematch against the rams but not in the 3 game in 12 days short week stretch
