Why Dallas hype is the best thing for the Giants

ANGPASS : 11/24/2015 1:59 pm
Giants are in first place. They control their own destiny. Blah Blah Blah. But, no one respects them at all. Everyone is picking a 3-7 team to win the division. As much as i hate hearing about the cowboys and how everyone rides their wagon, I really embrace all the Dallas talk. How many times have we seen Tom Coughlin teams get ahead of themselves and think they are better than they are? When ever they have a lead in the division or starts off hot, people always think they are one of the best teams. then they fall apart.

what happens when everyone over looks them while still relevant? They won superbowls. Not saying they will (though i believe they will), I think everyone over looking them for Dallas provide a great amount of motivation. They still have to go out a play their asses off but they are being reminded every day that no one respects them and will lose the division to Dallas.

There are 6 games left. I believe these next three weeks is the best opportunity for the giants to set themselves apart fro the rest of the division. The next three games being the redskins, Jets and Dolphins. Though we can lose to anyone in embarrassing fashion, I think everyone can agree of the remaining six games, these are the most winnable.

In the next three weeks our division rivals have tougher match ups. Dallas has Carolina, Redskins (loser is basically eliminated) and greenbay. The Eagles have the lions (been a different team the last 2 weeks), the Pats, and bills. Don't think they are doing better than 1-2 in this span. and the redskins have The giants, cowboys and bears. Can't see them doing better than splitting then next two after the giants.

Now obviously anything can happen. and i know some will say one game at a time. I am just saying these next three weeks are really important but also favorable to the giants.

That is why I like all this Dallas talk or winning the division. The giants can keep focused and handle their business and make the playoffs again and take advantage of being overlooked.
for all the yapping..

about how bad the Giants are, they beat TB while Philly was blown out and Dallas lost to them. People who think Dallas is a juggernaut are overrating Romo and underrating how difficult it will be to beat the Panthers and the Packers, let alone the rest of their games.
The bigger game for me  
AP in Halfmoon : 11/24/2015 2:05 pm : link
is the Eagles on Thursday. A loss there would be huge
This idea that the Cowboys  
Randy in CT : 11/24/2015 2:06 pm : link
are a world-beaters when Romo is playing sort of ignores the history of the Cowboys since Romo has been QB.
it's also going to piss off the teams they are playing  
giants#1 : 11/24/2015 2:12 pm : link
such as the 10-0 Panthers which are underdogs according to the spread...

Yep

Giants just have to get in.

Beat Washington !!
People (media) are just out to hype the Thanksgiving game  
JohnB : 11/24/2015 2:35 pm : link
they are trying to make it into something (when its not). It's all hype, don't listen to it.

Panthers are underdogs? Holy Crap. They are a 10-0 team that has a QB playing his ass off, and a defense that is no worse that #4 in the league. Charles Johnson is back which will only help their pass rush against Romo and company. Underdogs? Gimme what their smokin' coz it gotta be something else.

In Dallas defense, though, having Romo back has at least forced their team to re-gel after weeks of ineptitude. Enough to knock of the Panthers? Coach Rivera will not overlook the Cowboys in this game. Not a chance.
Hopefully Cam Newton will do something no other QB/player

has been able to do this season...to shut everyone up about how good the Cowboys are now that Romo is back. They'll eliminate the Cowboys from any kind of a playoff contention.
This is actually..  
FatMan in Charlotte : 11/24/2015 3:21 pm : link
the first time in modern history that an undefeated team is an underdog to a team under .500 with a minimum of 6 games played.
This is a huge week

And can set the table nicely. We obviously need to beat the Skins but if Dallas and Philly lose it on Thursday it will open things up big for NYG.
Maybe i'm in the minority but i do expect Dallas to beat Carolina  
MetsAreBack : 11/24/2015 4:59 pm : link
home game, short week, Carolina getting a little sloppy lately (and that Washington game would have been a lot different if the pick-6 was correctly called).

But i seriously doubt they go into GB and win and i also think the Skins will be a very hard H/H sweep. I see them going 7-9.

Panthers defense is great. They'll stop them.
If Dallas beat Carolina on thurs

the Dallas OL is going to play well I think. Short week plus Romo back will have Dallas playing their best.

Key to Carolina winning is their run game plus no turnovers.

This game will be decided by 4 points or less. Just hope Carolina wins!
Just Checked The Spread  
Jim in Tampa : 11/24/2015 7:40 pm : link
And Carolina is a one point favorite (not an underdog). If Dallas opened as the favorite the money came in on Carolina and shifted the spread.

Romo was getting hit pretty consistently. Had Miami had a semblance of a consistent offense that would have been a much different game. For all the talk of that OL they've been pretty average in pass defense.

Miami had 2 sacks, 6 QB hits, 7 TFL.
