"Giant will win and dominate throughout the opener"

- We’ve been hearing about how great The Cowboy’s draft was “Cowboys get three no.1’s “ We’ve been wringing our hands about the free players they got “Cowboys get Hardy and Collins without spending a pick”.
Well that’s all about as relevant as Donald Trumph’s presidential bid because, underneath the glitter, there’s worms and this draft has huge bust potential and not for the type of bust that pillowy either.
If we’re always hearing about addition by subtraction; The Cowboys are employing subtraction by subtraction.
Murray, Harris, Scandrick, Cartier, Anthony Spencer were a big part of this team and they are gone, sayonara, Hasta la Vista. Hardy and Renaldo McCain are out with suspensions and that’s really important.
Their draft is going to turn out to be as big a disappointment as Hillary’s emails. Gregory and Jones are not ready to be saviors and I don’t think they ever will be…. Flashy cheap paint jobs and workout warriors sailing into briny waters.
They’ve been trumpeting that Murray won’t be as good this year, but that’s not the issue. Murray was brilliant last year, he gave them TOP, he opened up things for Romo and meantime his replacements don’t look very good.
I watched our Williams kid last year plow up the back of an offensive lineman and confirmed….offensive lineman make a running back, but running backs can make offensive lineman look good too. Murray had brilliant vision, good wiggle and intuitions and the man broke tackles. This guy broke Jimmy Brown’s record for goodness sake, This guy was the piston that turned the flywheel, that made the locomotive go chug / chug.
Harris was the heart of special teams and they haven’t shown that they have “ordinary” for a replacement.
Scandrick was their best D Back by far and McCain and Cartier were very important while Spencer and Selvy contributed. Getting Lee back as a plus but he’s got so much china doll in him that he makes Beason look durable.
There is no other way you can look at it: The three units of The Cowboys are significantly weaker. And I have never believed in Romo without a great supporting cast and without that run game he doesn’t scare me.
Meantime, I’m not going to break it down here, but except for the front four I think every unit of the Giants has been significantly improved. I ached when I watched Andre Williams last year, he might be a highly specialized role player, but he had no vision , no intuition and no wiggle. A healty Jennings is going to tear them up, they have no one who can stay with Beckham and Vereen and OBJ together for a whole year???
I am not saying we’re a solid contender.
I am saying that our offense will dominate their defense and our defense will do enough against a team that will miss Murray in particular and is significantly weaker throughout.
Last year it was because of the defense. What's the excuse this year?
