Will they be the same team from the end 2022, but much improved by the offseason building?
Or will they be the Giants; clumsy at times and unable to take the next step to becoming a perennial power?
If the offseason building has made them better, the Cowboys have their hands full.
But if they are "snakebit" by the past history of looking up at Dallas, the game may already be a win for the Cowboys.

The Defense will probably have to save us if we are missing two starting OL but I actually think it can this year. I don't think this game will be easy at all. I'll probably start drinking mid-2nd quarter.

2 Good defenses. Ours is better.

Giants offense is improved, and their QB is underrated. I would have said our offense is better before the injuries. It's close now.

Dallas wins a close, defensive battle on the road with the strength of its defense!

I wouldn't be surprised at all to see the Giants win. I think the Giants will give it 110% and be super fired up. And I wouldn't be surprised to see the Cowboys not firing on all cylinders given so many starters not playing during the preseason. And TBH, I don't think the Giants are all that far behind the other NFC East teams. This isn't the 1970s. There isn't a huge margin of talent in between teams these days.

The Giants were an anomaly last year. I dont think they'll be as fortunate this year, I think they regress. Sure they added a TE but he's only had 2 healthy years his entire career. He's already hurt. Hyatt is gonna be a problem in the future for Dallas but not in this game.

:lmao: :facepalm: You're not fooling anyone. If Dak kicks their ***** your excuse will be the Giants are clumsy and snakebit, and the off season they had didn't make them any better. If we lose you won't give the Giants the credit. Instead, you'll blame Dak.

You Anti-Dak/Dallas Cult members are too predictable.

So are the cowboys! New WCO and a few new players on offense!

Unknown? All teams are unknown then. Same QB, same RB, no big changes at WR. Mostly the same OL. A new TE who’s got a bad hammy. Same coaches, unlike Philly. We probably know them better than any team in our division.

One of these two teams has an all new offense with a new play caller and new coordinator, which the opposing defense will have to decipher on the fly in the first game. That’s not the Giants who have the same coaches and scheme on both sides of the ball.

If one defense is guessing a little bit on what to expect from the other team’s offense… that is probably the Giants.

it doesn't matter what Giants team shows up....it's the Cowboys who need to worry about playing to their potential. Everything will take care of itself if they do. If they don't, then this blows up in their faces. Key penalties, turnovers and coaching miscues are great equalizers.

We'll be soft from not playing starters enough. We could win, we could lose. I see this as a 50/50 game.

Why you don’t think the off-season has made us better

Why would they be more motivated than us. Michael Parsons can’t wait to jump down someone’s throat. Imagine the rest of the team is right behind him. When the fourth quarter comes along, will see who really wants to win this game I’m suspecting it’s the Cowboys.

We have a new offensive scheme game plan I think we’re a little bit of the unknown also.
