Game Day ***Cowboys vs Giants Post Game Thread***

I'd go with Gilmore over Diggs, but Diggs did cause the interception and a fumble.

Am I wrong in thinking Diggs caused two fumbles? Didn't he put his shoulder on a ball early, then rip one out of Barkley's hands later? Maybe the first one was someone else.

They’re gonna need a bigger boat!

Great line man. Very under rated post.

Golston also got it done. Should have had two sacks, but one got erased by a penalty.

Shout out to CeeDee for hitting a milestone tonight!! With his 77 receiving yards he passed Tony Dorsett for No. 15 in Cowboys history in receiving yards. Next up is Lance Rentzel at 14.

I've been watching the Cowboys since 1970. Tonight was one of their most dominant defensive performances since SB27. Granted, it was the Giants in a downpour. Against a Dallas team never known as great "mudders." Playing in the same downpour. Whatever Jerry is paying Dan Quinn, it's probably not enough. Happy for the win, and it's going to be a good day tomorrow.

I think it was only one fumble for him, the one where he stripped the receiver. He put his shoulder on the ball against Barkley, causing it to pop up in the air and be picked off by Bland. I believe they ruled that an interception.

We caused five fumbles, so maybe he had another one that I'm not remembering.

And all of the twelve 40-point plus games were victories.

You are remembering correctly. Two forced fumbles.

Edit: as mentioned by gimme, it was an INT but it wouldn’t have happened without Diggs hit

Oh okay, I was watching at Hooters, so I couldn't hear the TV, and I guess I was too hyped up to think about it! Thanks!

Two people have replied that the first one was actually an interception.

A negative would be Deuce usage. Not a single snap until late in the 2nd half with the game out of hand. Wasting carries on stiffs like Dowdle and Turpin.

I mean, everything else besides the QB was fantastic but that disappointed me. Deuce should have a package for him that has him on the field in all quarters.

Someone bought the hype.

Carson Wentz is unemployed.

The Cowboys did not take the Giants to the woodshed.

They threw the Giants in, locked the door and set it on fire with a tank full of kerosene

I edited with the correction

Did all 48 on the active list get in the game?

Hopefully, he got his only miss for the season out of the way on his first kick.

Dan Bailey started his career with Dallas by missing his first kick. Then he barely missed a kick for like 5 years.

So who knows....

Beat the Giants like they owed us money. Love it!

I think that is the last we will see of the Giants opening day. They don't deserve that spot.
