We are playing the Giants Sunday and we haven't seen any bulletin board material from them

I think the Giants will force the Cowboys into a shoot out, causing them to abandon the run.


I don't see that for the simple reason that I believe the run will move the sticks and score points. The only way the Giants could force the Cowboys to abandon the run would be to get ahead by 2 or 3 scores. As long as the Cowboys can maintain the pace while utilizing the run they'll continue to do so.

Definitely possible. They won't completely abandon the run though.. not completely. That is going to be part of their DNA. They may be forced to throw more than they'd like but they won't completely forget about running unless time is running out or something similar to that where the clock is an issue.

Aren't gonna abandon the run. Rb's aren't the only runners, Giants have to account for Dak too. No way they can cover all that.

They may be too wound up about Dak, they need to be worried about the running game. I will predict that Whitehead will have at least 40 yards rushing to stack on top of Morris, Zeke and Prescott's yards..

They can prevent Dak running too much by hitting him each time he moves out of the pocket. Dallas can't risk too many hits on him. Giants should be able to score on the Dallas defense, so they can't just grind the ball all game, they'll need to keep up.

Dak is always looking downfield when he moves to run. If they come up to hit him, hell throw the ball. Most likely we also will have a fb in also for protection along with the TE's for the run game. With our speed in the wideouts, Giants have to keep coverage close. Can't put all their defenders up in the box to just stop the run.

I am going to miss Coughlin on the sideline, those facial expressions when bad things happened to the Giants were priceless.

I have been watching football for 44 years and something about this kid is magical. To me the feeling I have about him, is that he is the real deal. Just looking at him in the pocket he seems cool calm and collected just like a seasoned Qb. I will be shocked from what I have seen that he becomes know as just a Pre-Season wonder. I think he has a bright future ahead of him.

Bulletin board material never has any affect on a game. I wouldn't even address it even if the Giants were talking a lot of smack anyway. The game is played on the field, not bulletin boards.

They paid a ton of money to Snacks Harrison, a two-down player, because he supposedly will stop our run game.

He was the NT for the Jets last year between Muhammad Wilkerson and Sheldon Richardson, and Darren McFadden still ran for 100 on them with Kellen Moore & Matt Cassel under center.

We're going to ram it down their throats.

You'll hear a lot of quotes mentioning him taking up two blockers, but our 3 interior guys are the best 3 combo in the NFL since the last Cowboys SB. They absolutely dominated that 3-4 against the run. Free struggled causing problems on mostly of the negative or 0 yard runs that game. Harrison will be suckling wind and getting oxygen in this game. Same with Hankins.

Pretty much all my friends and family are Giants fans, not a peep from them either about the game Sunday. I think they're a bit terrified of what they saw from Dak/Zeke in the preseason and what they could be facing the next 10+ years. Also, this game is kind of a no-win for them....if they win, they beat a team w/o their starter and against a rookie......same thing if they lose
