• Can’t say enough about Sean Lee and his preparation for a game. He studied all week how the Giants had success pulling their offensive linemen in the first meeting in order to help their running game. Lee had an idea that Ben McAdoo was likely to try and run the ball in the game the same way, but he was not going to allow that to happen. Each time the Giants tried to pull, Lee was right there reading his keys and finishing the play.
• Dallas defensively was one of the worst teams in the league when it came to three-and-out stops. They came into the game getting opponents off the field only 14 percent of the time. Nine of the 15 Giants drives for the game ended up with them punting.
• The interception that Dak Prescott threw in the third quarter with the Cowboys leading 7-3 was the worst pass that I have seen him throw all season. There would have been nothing wrong with checking the ball down or taking a sack, but trying to force the ball to Dez Bryant was a horrible decision. The way his defense was playing, punting the ball would have put the Giants in a tough situation and would have likely given him another opportunity near midfield. Prescott knew he was wrong and it cost his team.
• I don’t want to blame his cast, but Barry Church normally makes those interceptions. I knew that once he returned to the lineup, there was a chance that the turnovers could show up. Church let two get away from him that would have put the offense in prime scoring territory.
• I don’t know if Doug Free was that poor or Romero Okwara was that good, but I promise you that this was the best game he has played all season. Okwara had one of those game like David Irving had against the Packers. The film leading up to this game showed a solid player but not an overwhelming one. I really believed that Dallas would have success running to his side in the absence of Jason Pierre Paul, but he was up to the challenge and there wasn’t much drop off there.
