I think it’s a high scoring affair, we can’t really stop thh ugh Ed running game but the defense finally gets some turnovers.

Everybody and his brother had The Saints humbling us....duhhhhh. How did that turn out?

We now have possibly the most dynamic trio of WRs the Giants have ever had and likely the league's best (small sample size)

It came out of necessity and nowhere but my eyes did not deceive me.

Galloway is a BEAST.....1st official trucking since Shockey did it to Washington Football Team

Ross is lightning fast and in football speed kills look at KC

Toney should have 2 broken ankles the way he cuts but seems ready to go. We have never had anything like Toney at WR
He moves like he is in a video game

Admitedly we need to see a TE emerge. My bet is on Smith

Sounds like you're saying that the Giants performance against the Saints will be repeated in Dallas. Sure hope you are right. And sure hope the majority of these predictions are wrong, including my own, which is Dallas 31 - Giants 17.
No I'm not saying the New Orleans experience wil repeat  
Batenhorst7 : 10/9/2021 11:49 am : link
I dont think the Cowboys hang close or pull away as the Saints did.
I'm looking for the Giants with their backs to the division wall and with renewed confidence and the weapons, to dominate.
Its really about who comes in with the right level of intensity

my biggest concern is the co-ordinators

Graham has played it very cautious to date. I expect him to play zone a lot and bring 3 often....would love to see more man and a corner blitz or two. Bring the house? How about it Patrick?

Garrett has way to much admiration and respect for the cowboys and has only beaten them once...maybe when we play the Cowboys Joe Judge should call the plays. Having said that Garrett is on a short leash. Garrett has to stop calling Barkleys number one every 1st down. Barkley is a terrible 1st down runner up the gut. He only breaks tackles it seems in the secondary and he does not pick a quick hole and accelerate- he dances

We need to come out passing on 1st down. Garrett has been way to predictable on 1st down.
If he lays an egg his job is in jeopordy

In the end the trenches are where games are really won and lost. We need to win those battles.

Last week the D rose up when they had to make a play but generally were too cautious....there was zero pressure on Winston

The Oline pass protection on the other hand was terrific

Im seeing a Giants statement game....if not then a close victory

I'm a Baby Boomer and have watched a lotta football over the course of nearly 60 years. That doesn't give me any special insights or knowledge. But just based on the experience of plain ol' watching the game, the idea that the Giants could "dominate" the Cowboys is an outcome I could never predict nor ever see unfolding.
Agreed but

on the surface it seems improbable

in my opinion the Saints at home were a much tougher assignment than Dallas

if we pick up where we left off we should fair very well

enough said, play the game

according to Aikman we should get creamed
we are not in their league he said

I hope he is calling this game. kharma is a...........

Dallas is a much tougher assignment than New Orleans. That's obvious. New Orleans doesn't have a good QB, and Dak is near elite.
Dak may be "seeing ghosts"  
Batenhorst7 : 10/9/2021 2:47 pm : link
It has to be playing on his mind we nearly took his foot off
exactly a year ago to the day

I doubt he tries to run on us and if we somehow can put some hits on him in the pocket he may crumble and start throwing INTs

My biggest concern is Elliott
stop him early and often and Dallas will struggle

Graham was a veritable D genius last year....he is due to call a great game and counter their O plans

Cooper has been injured, Lamb is admittedly a threat
the key is Elliott, he must be contained

I hope he utilizes Coughlin more

Cant wait for 4 PM on Sunday. We have a chance to get back in the conversation and the race to the Trophy

There are no super teams as yet this year, everyone has been brought to earth except AZ and they are due to hit a bump in the road

Im not impressed by Tampa, KC has struggled, Pittsburg is floundering

Right now I'd have to say Washington and Dallas have the momentum but both must meet us again

Buffalo looks good....would love to see Giants Buffalo II in this years SB....this time wide left LOL

I hope Gettelman is on the phone trying to bring in an edge rusher before the trade deadline or pluck someone from a practice squad or free agency. We are weak at Edge and our LBs are pedestrian- every team has some weakness

The Giants front 7 have to pick up the pace.

Then we are in deep trouble
We barely beat the Saints
What on earth are the Giants going to do?

Troy Aikman says we haven't a prayer

Heavens to Mergatroid!!!!

Actually, watching Troy's face and his little partner Joe Buck's face was a highlight of the last time we beat
New England in 2012 as the clock ticked down in the SB

Hopefully, we see that duo on Sunday, and the inevitable cutaway to Jerry Jones bemused face in his booth getting up to leave stunned and stone-faced
Making it to the SB is not the goal  
Batenhorst7 : 10/9/2021 6:16 pm : link
Winning the Super Bowl is the goal

Who thought we would win it in 2008, or 2012??

Or the Bucs would win it last year?

Taking it one game at a time, of course we have a chance

On the other hand we have the toughest schedule in the NFL this year.....but those teams have to beat us. You cannot mail it in. Lets hope those other teams are in fear of the Giants as the season plays out

The transitive property doesn't extend to football matchups. Just because Dallas is better than New Orleans (and they are much better) doesn't mean we won't play better than them on that day. Any given Sunday. And there are a lot of random variables.
Ok- Every year since the mid 90s  
Batenhorst7 : 10/10/2021 11:39 am : link
we have heard how much better the Cowboys are than anyone

Please! They inevitably fall on their faces.

They got off to a good start and hopefully (likey) they hit a wall today. Honestly, which team has the the bigger upside Giants or Dallas?

They have 2 power wins- Chargers and Carolina
The Saints had 2 power wins over Packers and Patriots
We beat the Saints at home

An honest appraisal of the Cowboys 2 victories over Carolina and Chargers was they won both with 200 yd running stats

Dak Prescott was a low yardage game manager in both contests

He better bring more heat against the Giants. He better be prepared to match Jones Arm and feet. I dont think he will

Im not some guru, anyone can see the Cowboys two big wins were on the ground. I assume Patrick Graham has noted what I just pointed out

Stop Dallas running game, force Dak to open up the offense and hopefully get some turnovers. If we do those 3 things we can put a good ol texas whomping on Jerry's crew

IMHO Jones is the better QB and we have the superior passing game

They have a nice stadium....that's about where it ends

Dak Prescott has already thrown for over a 1,000 yards in four games and is completing 75% of his passes. Oh, and he's thrown for 10 TDs and only 2 INTs this season. Dak Prescott is an elite NFL QB. Full stop.

Well, if Dak Prescott ain’t elite, then he’s at least elite against the Giants.

Since 2017, he’s a perfect 7-0 against us. In these seven games Dallas has out-scored the Giants by an average margin of 12 points (30.6-18.6)

Against the Giants, Dak Prescott has attempted 226 passes, completing 148 -- good for 1,975 yards with a 65.5% completion rate. He has thrown for 16 TD passes and been intercepted only twice.

You can't entirely separate the passing success of Dak Prescott with the running success of Ezekiel Elliott. But even if the Giants manage to slow E.E. down, Dak Prescott can still pierce the heart of this Giants secondary so long as he gets protection, which is not that hard to imagine given the Giants non-existent pass rush.

Well that’s the beef my Cowboys buddy has with Dak, against shit competition he dominates, but against the better Ds of the league he doesn’t really have the consistent accuracy to get it done. The way the team is constructed he needs to take the offense to another level. His nickname for Dak is dirtball Dak as he has a real bad tendency to short balls.
