New York Giants Preview

New York needs better play at quarterback to remain close in Dallas. Russell Wilson went 17-for-37 for 168 yards in Week 1 and took two sacks, On the ground, Wilson had 8 rushes for 44 yards. Nabers had 5 receptions for 71 yards, and Wan’Dale Robinson added 6 receptions for 55 yards. Up front, the status of left tackle Andrew Thomas matters after he was listed inactive last game; protection must improve to get Wilson comfortable on early downs.

The Giants can build around a short passing game plan and a three-back rotation to avoid third-and-long. Tyrone Tracy Jr. and Devin Singletary combined for 35 rushing yards. Graham Gano made both his field goals, including a 55-yarder. Linebacker Bobby Okereke piled up 16 tackles, and Brian Burns posted two sacks, giving New York a strong presence in the front seven.

Dallas Cowboys Preview

Dallas showed balance even without explosive scoring. Prescott threw for 188 yards at 61.8% with no turnovers, and Lamb looked unstoppable at times (7 catches, 110 yards). The ground game performed well: Javonte Williams posted 54 yards and two touchdowns, while Miles Sanders had a 49-yard run en route to 53 yards. That one-two punch sets up play-action routes where Prescott and Lamb can thrive.

The Cowboys’ pass rush should influence this one. Rookie edge Marshawn Kneeland notched a sack, and the interior pushed pockets enough to disrupt Philly’s timing despite the loss. Dan Quinn’s unit limited big plays against Philly and tackled well. Malik Hooker led with nine stops. If Dallas wins first down and forces Wilson to hold the ball, the home side can squeeze the field and trust Brandon Aubrey to kick field goals if drives stall. Aubrey went 2-for-2 with a long of 53 yards.

New York Giants vs Dallas Cowboys Pick

Dallas has the steadier pass protection, the superior early-down run game, and a better overall QB situation. New York’s defense can keep it close, but sustained drives are a question until the pass protection becomes more consistent. Final Score Prediction: Dallas Cowboys win and cover ATS 21-14.
