Here comes the normal smack talk from the Giants... I like our chances even more now. Also-- if you watch their :30 keys to the game, they say the Giants key is to run the ball, and the Cowboys key is to find a pass rush.

Weird. Would have figured the Dallas key would be run the ball down their throats since we have a great OL and a deep stable of RBs-- but that's just me. Eli gets rid of the ball incredibly fast. Getting sacks isn't the priority with him... Tackling well and eliminating the big play are way more important.

Yah-- not terrible...but for whatever reason, they love to flap their gums before they play us. I think they are 1-5 over the last 6 games. Would love nothing more than to see whiny Eli face and an OBJ tantrum on Sunday.
I can't stand OBJ. It's like "The Catch" part 2. It's all the media talks about. They seem to forget, we won that game.

Heh heh....for real. We have contained OBJ the last 2 times we've played and Eli has been pedestrian as well. Their D has gotten a talent infusion-- but their offense is pretty much the same. Cruz has yet to return to form and they have the rookie Shepherd-- but Jennings doesn't scare me, and the rest of their skill position players are 'meh'.

Throw in the fact that their OL has some holes and I think we can bottle up their offense.

I'm interested to see how Dak responds to the blitz. That was the one thing Romo was pretty bad at. It would usually lead to poor throws or injuries. Over the years Romo got better at just throwing the ball away instead of throwing it into coverage. I think Dak's speed and his ability to run the option might actually give us an answer to those exotic blitzes that have killed us over the years.

I think Dak and Elliot put up great fantasy numbers but the defense will lose the game in the final seconds of the game.

sophomoric bs.

you don't post his career numbers by being bad at an nfl blitz.

Let 'em talk, the victory will be that much sweeter when they get embarrassed by a rookie QB and RB.

What the Giants are going to try to beat us? Great find. I'm glad you brought this to our attention
