Week 1: Pick the Winner of Giants at Cowboys

[DFWJC]

Another season getting ready to begin!

Who wins Game 1: Dallas or New York?

 

[Longboysfan]

Dallas - close 3 or 4 points

 

[pugilist]

Giants in a blowout

 

[WillieBeamen]

The Boys

Zeke will carry us, the same way that #22 did

If Romo were playing, I'd pick the Cowboys easily.
I just don't now with Dak. Yes, he had a great preseason game, but this is the real season now.
The Giants always play us tough. I want to go with the Cowboys. We have the edge with our offensive line and our running attack.
But our rookie quarterback and a suspect defense give me pause.

I hope I'm wrong but ... Giants 27, Cowboys 20

 

[Wolf2k5]

I took the Homer vote. While I am not ready to anoint Dak yet I'm extremely hopeful he can drive this bus regardless of the low probability of rookies success

 

[Jenky]

Cowboys will win this game adding to Dak's confidence.

 

[Jarv]

Cowboys will win this game adding to Dak's confidence.

You mean legacy

Start with screens, quick routes to the Bease then give it to Eze and a long ball to Dezinator......dun.

 

[DallasEast]

Tom Coughlin was a great motivator, even when his players hated his approach. I would be more worried about the Giants' defense infused with pricey free agents/fresh blood if Coughlin was egging them on but I don't feel the same about Ben McAdoo. Perhaps I'm wrong but I think our offense is the biggest factor for either team going into the game and I don't believe the Giants defense will stymie it enough for four quarters.

 

[DBOY3141]

Giants.....the start of a very long season.

 

[JBS]

Giants in a blowout

I'll take that bet

 

[The Quest for Six]

Giants 33 Dallas 27...Dallas defensive line makes Giants offensive line look All pro

 

[DFWJC]

Start with screens, quick routes to the Bease then give it to Eze and a long ball to Dezinator......dun.

Sounds good. But as always, and as you know, that is only <1/2 the game. Defense needs to hold up and special teams too.

 

[Clove]

I'm going Dallas 24 NY 23.

This exactly. Got to go with the more balanced team which is NY. Eli wont screw the pooch 2 times in a row at the end of the game. I think the lead will go back and forth 1st half and then we'll either have a rash of turnovers/penalties and they will drive us down in the 4th quarter.

 

[Shunpike]

Cowboys will win a close one. For us Giants fans, tradition of losing the first game of the season will continue.

 

[Jarv]

Dallas 41 Gnats 17.

 

[Aven8]

I never do predictions because of superstition but screw it, my superstitions haven't done anything for this team!

45-24 Dallas. We get up big early like we have all PS when Dak starts. Maybe Sanchez gets a chance to do a kneel down even!

The presnap penalties should go way down due to the fact Dak will just play and not let time go down to 1 second every play.

 

[ConceptCoop]

Giants -24
Cowboys - 20

I can really see it going either way, but will give the slight edge to the veteran QB.
