They have no offense besides Elliot and I think we can shut him down because he runs toward our strength in the middle. We are more susceptible to the outside runners and that does not play to Elliot's strength. Maybe wishing instead of predicting, but I do think the Giants will win 24-10 or in a comfortable manner. If we can't win this game, it is going to be another long season with our schedule.
Giants 27-13. However the realist in me sees continued issues with O-line and skittish Eli and we see another pick 6, more drops from EE and SS and the Giants lose 21-17. I hope optimism wins
oddsmakers always favor the desperate team at home. This Giants team is too full of itself for showing up against Jax.
Flowers can't handle Lawrence ruining another Sunday for Eli.
When was the last time the Giants scored more than 20 even, I'll believe it when I see it.
most of them are. With that said, I think Dak will have a better game this week as he seems very determined to right their ship, especially after Collins comments about having a better chance of winning putting the ball in his hands. Linehan will have them using more misdirection, play-action, bootlegs, etc against this D. We've been susceptible to QBs running with the ball, as well. Our offense has to show up this week and start scoring points. I will then become a believer. I just hope this doesn't become another moral victory. Just find a way to win this game.

Cowboys 20-Giants-17
I’m curious what evidence you have of the team being too full of itself for showing up against Jacksonville. Not trying to be a jerk, just asking genuinely because I don’t get the sense anyone is truly satisfied with Sunday’s result, from fans, to players/coaches, to front office. I think a lot of us saw some positives from Sunday, but I don’t see the Giants losing because of a mindset of being full of itself.
I think the Giants will win 21-13. Offense still needs some work and will struggle with the Dallas pass rush. Our big playmakers will make some big plays, but Elliott will also get his fair share of damage done. However, I don’t think what Elliott will do is going to be enough to carry their offense.
Giants 38 Cowboys 28 but it isn't that close, Cowboys points come at slop time. Eli throws for 400 yds and 4tds helped by SB taking a long screen pass to the house and OBJ taking a long slant home. Britt makes 100 comments in two hours and ambulances show up at his house when Eli bashers are forced admit they were wrong.
until you see this team play with some sort of confidence?.....there have been "wins" along the way, the last several years, but I haven't seen a Giant team strut around for a long time(even during the 11-5 season).....

Good players play great games because they are very good players not because of what another player on the other team says. If you need that to play a great game then you weren't that good to begin with.
I really don't think Dallas is any good, particularly at WR and TE. I am so excited to watch OBJ and Barkley. Both will score and both will go over 100 total yards each.
I am actually feeling confident about this game. I don't know why. I just think things are going to come together for us a bit. And I think we are going to get the type of win that we've been starved for.
I usually get more optimistic as game time approaches, so it might just be that. But I really don't think much of this Dallas team and the Giants are better and should win. If we lose, it's going to be a LONG season.
Last time I predicted a Giants blow out against the Cowboys Â
I can't tell if some of you are for real. I'm optimistic about this game, but half of you guys are making these guys look rational
I could only speak for myself but I'm more down on the Cowboys than I am high on the Giants. They've leaned on their OL the last few years and it's not what it was. Not even close if last week was any indication. They were arguably worse than the Giants line in Week 1.
hard to know enough at this point, but presumably if we finally capitalize on our opportunities we should win easily - e.g., 28-10; otherwise if think we lose 28-10 if we let dak and elliot get loose and we have turnovers

Cowboys 17
Eli throws for 220, 1 TD, 1 INT (there’s always 1)
Barkley goes for 120 and another score from the goal line
No Dallas TE goes for more than 30 yards
OBJ 7 for 160 2 TD's
Barkley 25 for 175 and 2 scores
Defense cause 3 to's
35-10 Giants win
We are going to smoke them
Dallas 23, Giants 20
Dallas 23, Giants 20
No way the Giants lose this game
Go Giants we need a win!
Saquon gets 90 yards and a TD
We hold Zeke to under 100 yards.
I think they win, but it's a division game, it'll be close and ugly.

Our O-line will be embarrassed again, and the refs will blow a crucial call.
...Giants need to prove they can win a game before I'm picking them.
Dallas 21

NY 26

Eli 19-29, 213, 2 TDs
Saquon 21-96
Lorenzo Carter 1st NFL sack
I think we see the offense click a little bit better this week, and I have confidence the D can shut down the run.
Good players play great games because they are very good players not because of what another player on the other team says. If you need that to play a great game then you weren't that good to begin with.
I actually think the Cowboys of 2018 will be a lot like the Giants of 2017, and vice versa.
Dallas looked hapless and the Giants lost to a better team but kept it competitive.
If the Giants lose.....i feel the season will be lost before it even started.....much like last year.
So, i sure hope the Giants win.
Eli throws for 250 yards but again no TDs and goes 2 for 12 in red zone
Flowers gets sacked on twice

Won't make that mistake again.

Eli pick on last drive to end chance at tying game up
Elliot out rushes god Barkley
Engram will couple more drops
Two mediocre teams on a prime time game

My heart prediction - Giants 27 - Cowboys 24
Beckham goes wild - 10/150/2 TDs
