Are people really afraid of the Giants?

I say we win by 10 or more. We’re going to be a lot more Methodical holding onto the football. Longer drives. I don’t expect a high high score.
Afraid to give a prediction? 10 points is a lot different than 20 points. Your talking like its going to be 40-10.

They just drafted the best Center in the draft this year. Much improved.

Did you know they traded for Darren Waller?

Drink up butter cup!!
They did that three years ago, the best center in the draft. For their sake, I hope this one’s better. You should know it takes three years or plus to know what you have in the draft pick.

No but I wish we would've picked Hyatt instead of Schoonmaker

How did the giants improve? Seriously
Quick answer:

Second year in the Daboll / Martindale system. (this is the biggeee)

Improved their DL rotation. They had a strong front line with Dexter Lawrence and Leonard Williams but they added 2 strong players in Rakeem Nunez-Roches and A'Shawn Robinson. On paper this is a step up. While we're on defense they added LB Bobby Okereke who is strong in the middle. Weakness will be 2 rookie CB's but they strengthened their front 7.

We'll have to pass on them I think.

On offense they'll probably be the same on their OL (I don't see any meaningful improvement) but Danny Dimes looked better last year that I've seen him so Daboll is obviously behind this. Barkley playing for another contract. Improved markedly at TE and at least have some decent WR's this year vs 2022.

Here's your Cliff Notes.

Not afraid of them, no. But I do believe the Cowboys need to take them seriously and prepare for them with the best game plan possible. I suspect the Giants will have a very good team this year.
The Cowboys should have the best game plan for every team or the coaches aren't doing their jobs.

Meh. Easy W. They don't have their little underdog momentum week 1. Maybe next matchup they'll be the fighting giants but they should get smashed week 1

A little superstitious.
Somewhat, based off what’s happened pretty frequently to the Cowboys when fans get overly confident. I’ve lost track of how many teams fans have disrespected, only to watch the Cowboys lay an egg against them. The last one was in the season finale against Washington last season. After that embarrassment, I don’t know how any Cowboys fan could get overconfident about an opponent, but a new season always brings out the chest pounders. Some fans like the reactions they get.

It's a division game and the Giants are definitely improving. This isn't the Judge/Garrett years along with that buffoon GM they had. I wish they all stuck around but unfortunately someone over there wisened up.
but their obese HC is going to have a coronary if he keeps acting as he is

We own those losers. Dak owns those losers. We aren't losing to that second rate franchise.
Every game counts. This isn't NBA, or MLB. This may be the most balanced I've ever seen the league within reason.

What team do you think will be garbage? It's a bit hard for prediction.

This is the NFL, and every game counts. Especially in the NFCE.
