If the Giants win today and come to Dallas next week wouldn't they be the favorites?

If not Vegas by 1 pt definitely by all the media people at Fox, CBS, NFL Network, NBC, and ESPN. And that would work in our favor since they are 0-2 against them this season and a underdog in our house.

You can't tell me the Cowboys wouldn't be motivated to kick the Giants you know what if they win today. Part of me wants the Giants to win for that reason.

Packers win the Cowboys would be favored in Vegas and by the media and it maybe a slip up where we come out to cocky and lose. Seems like it's better to play a team we have not beaten this season instead of a team we already beat.

No way. Cowboys would be favorited by between 4 and 6.

It's hard to beat a team 3 times in a season. Vegas knows that.

I don't think its going to matter much either way to be honest. Who ever wins todays Packers/Giants game i would guess is going to be about the standard -3 road underdog.

I see the media going probably 60%/40% against us next week either way. Most love to hate the Cowboys, and networks love Cowboy haters as it bring ratings. Giants & Packers are the trendy pick in the NFC right now.

If I'm not mistaken, I think the Cowboys are the only ones whoever beat a team 3 times in a season. The Eagles.

I look for whoever plays us to be the favorites... there's just been a building narrative this last week, and it will only compound this week because the winner will be seen as having momentum.

It's happened 17 times. The Cowboys were the last team to do it

Vegas doesn't ascribe to the narrative. Dallas is, will be and has been the favorites to come out of the NFC. Their odds were about 5x that of the Giants.

Didn't we beat Philly 3xs one year?

Yes. We almost beat Philly soundly all 3 games if I remember correctly. The Giants beat us by 4 combined points. Once they beat a backfield playing their first game and once in poor conditions at home. We could've easily won both of those games.
