The Giants defensive line matches up very well with the Cowboy offensive line. Both Damon Harrison and Johnathan Hankins are the types of defensive tackles that create problems in terms of crossing their faces on reach blocks (due to their size), and both are difficult to drive block. Olivier Vernon and Jason Pierre-Paul are two of the quickest ends in the league, and can be difficult to get your hands on. They key in Dallas being able to beat them will be Prescott identifying open receivers much better than he did in Week One. He left a lot of production on the field due to inaccuracy.

Our O-line had their worst game of the season the first game, I am confident things will be completely different in a few weeks.

It was less about the line and more about the rookies in their first live NFL action. Especially since Zeke had only 7 carries in the preseason. If they think the Zeke they saw that game will look the same way next time, they're fools.

Zeke wasn't patient at all that day, he has learned a lot from then. I think we are a better team than the Giants.

The only chance the Giants have to catch us is by winning the rematch........they have to win that game, if they don't its over.

Even if the Giants win the rematch, they still need us to lose again and they pretty much have to run the table in December. Going to be very hard for the Giants, not impossible, but very hard.

Yeah, I read this article in the Post this morning. They're downplaying our success. It's ok ... the Gnats aren't going to win out either. They'll be lucky to go 2-2 over the next 4 games. Their game against us may be moot by then.

But I worry that their big play O will cause our D some issues. We can deal with the dink and dunk O's ... but the big play is where we're most vulnerable.

Then again let's just say if we had a do-over of week 1 ... we murder them.

Biggest difference is they moved him back a yard after that game.

They nipped us by a single point in Dak and Zeke's first NFL start. We're not the same team we were in WK 1.

Oh, and I still firmly believe if TWill didn't have a brain fart and run out of bounds like he should have, Baily makes that FG.

I'll set the over/under for how many points we beat the Giants by next time we play at 21 points

I'm taking the over
