Anyone worried the Giants get up big time for the game to play spoiler? Right now not sure they are 100% dejected and have quit on the season but could be close. If the Cowboys pound the rock and physically dominate them all four quarters they could be done for the season.

However I'm not sure they are ready to pack it in because they have a chance to emotionally rebound against Dallas. Beckham Jr. will be an issue. Their DL could still present a problem. Will Eli regroup after throwing 5 INTs and be more focused this week?

Anyway what are your concerns?

None, really. We should all remember that the Cowboys are undefeated on the road and NY is hobbled. I'm not saying its going to be an easy win, but there is little doubt that we should defeat them.

I don't think we're at the point where we shouldn't be concerned about anyone we play, especially an East opponent. We've already seen what can happen against lowly Washington and its third-string QB.

100% agree. Giants are this week's team and they do present some challenges regardless of their record.

As we were reminded versus the Commanders, it's never wise to take any divisional rival lightly, so of course there is reason to have concerns about this game against the Giants. I mostly worry about our players getting hurt and that affecting future games.

Well Manning and their offense looked pretty good against us for a lot of the first game. We have issues getting to the QB. Eli becomes a different QB when you give him time. That worries me.

And Romo's health worries me a lot.

Let's see, 1) Giants will pressure Romo with 7 or 8 in the box to blitz and put Romo out of the game or at less try for turn overs; 2) Giants will let the Cowboys run the ball and let their offense out score the cowboys; and 3) Giants will try to out coach the Cowboys with schemes like the Commanders did to beat us.

You are right to have concern. Most teams can beat another at times. We're better but they could be better Sunday. Doubt it but you never know.

That Eli drops 400 on us like he has done in the past and their defense plays like the 2000 Ravens and nails Romo. Though I would say the Cowboys are far better than they are at this point.

Peyton disguise himself as Eli. Sorry, no sleep - need some coffee.

This is the NFL. There are no bad teams, just teams with bad records. Look at how a two win Titans team played the Steelers last night, or how the Rams beat Denver Sunday. If Demarco Murray didn't fumble at the Commanders' 8 a few weeks ago, the Cowboys are 8-2.

That's baloney.

Despite the Commanders game, some posters are still convinced the game will be a breeze.

My concerns are the defense not getting enough sustained pressure on Eli Manning, the offensive line doing a better job against Johnathan Hankins than they did in the first matchup, and the Giants being a desperate team.

One thing of note: the Cowboys under Jason Garrett are 5-7 in games played with 10 days or longer of rest between games.

If both teams play their best, the Cowboys win.

Match up
Scandrick on Beckham
Carr on Randle

Randle struggles with routes and is often not on the same page with Eli. I wouldn't waste Scandrick on him.
