Are people really afraid of the Giants?

Tampa Bay, LA Rams, Cardinals, Raiders
Giants are better than what, 1 of those maybe? Raiders? However, they have Jimmy G, and O'Connell (who played well in pre-season.)
Rams, Cardinals are up and down, but not without talent (TB, and Matt won a chip not that long ago.)

I'd almost bet every division will be tough wins. That's not to say we won't have a lot of L's for a team, but I don't see a lot of blowouts coming this season.

Giants have a much improved roster, but are probably still a year or two away depending on their QB. Waller is a matchup nightmare and Barkley still can beat you in many ways, but their receivers are more slot types.

No, it shouldn’t be. Dallas might dominate but they might not too. The Giants are going to be a pretty good team this season regardless.

They had good enough coaching to go to the divisional round last season and they’ve improved on both sides of the ball. They’re going to be solid at worst.

The key will be stopping their QB from running for first downs. Jones converted about a million 3rd downs last year doing that crap.

Teams will be better prepared for that this season but they’ll still be good.
Know your opponent. Never take them for granted. This team improved yet made the playoffs last season. That is always earned in competition.

I'm hoping to see a Cowboys team ready to take on an opponent ready for all alternatives in momentums!

Weird stuff can happen in the first game

Let's hope Dak and the Cowboys don't have the OP's attitude going into Sunday night.

Before that little rata, Dennis Houston, signed with the Giants, I rolled 30-9 in an easy win. But I think it will be a little closer now.

COWBOYS 23 GIANTS 13

Giants signed Dennis and the Rojaskins signed Cox to be their little ratas.
La rata de la puerta con safo.

Cox wants more entry level acceptance and a better chance at signing contracts.

Not afraid of the Giants, but guys who run like Barkley and Jones always make me envision Parsons and company pass rushing wildly and letting those two guys have a free lane into the secondary.

Last year the Giants were 15th in total offense, 17th in total defense, had a point differential of -6 and 8 of their 9 wins were by 8 points or less.

What they did last season was a fluke and not sustainable. Teams like that virtually always revert to the mean.

Danny Dimes will be much improved, Barkley will be Barkley, young receiver with some talent, Waller the atE from the Raiders, a nice Dl that can stop the run and pressure on the pass, an aggressive offensive coach who the players like. Won’t be an easy out Imo…

just about all of Israel were afraid of Giants about 1020 B.C.

but for the past 3,000 years? not so much. Thanks David.
