Both teams lost their first games of the season, New York was on the road as well, and both lost to division rivals. Obviously this means that whoever loses this game will be 0-2 overall and 0-2 within NFC East play on top of that.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Saying there are high stakes in Week 2 feels silly, but tell that to the team who walks off of the field as a loser on Sunday afternoon. The Cowboys and Giants may be in similar places from a record standpoint, but the former has a new head coach in Brian Schottenheimer and is clearly beginning a new era. New York is in a position where they could make a change at head coach if the season doesn\u2019t go according to plan which means that Brian Daboll may have to get creative.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">This could be what was in the back of Daboll\u2019s mind when he spoke to the media after the Giants lost to the Washington Commanders on Sunday. When he was asked if Russell Wilson would remain New York\u2019s starter, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/nfl\/story\/_\/id\/46191005\/giants-daboll-passes-starting-qb-questions-loss\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">he was noncommittal<\/a>.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"duet--article--blockquote _1teeyfa0 ls9zuh9\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup _1teeyfa8 ls9zuh1\">\u201cWe\u2019re going to get home and look at our game,\u201d Daboll said when asked if he would consider starting Dart next week.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">The Giants selected Ole Miss quarterback Jaxson Dart with their second selection in the first round (they traded up to do so). It has always felt like a matter of when and not if Dart will start this season, but Week 2 would mean a pretty short bit of patience from Daboll.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Speaking Monday, Daboll confirmed this line of thought when he said that Russell Wilson will be the team\u2019s starter.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Truth be told this, famous last words I know, probably works out better for the Cowboys. Wilson is no longer the player he was at his peak, part of that peak involved Brian Schottenheimer as his offensive coordinator, and Dart represents a great unknown.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Prepare for Russell Wilson.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Dallas Cowboys will have their home opener on Sunday at AT&amp;T Stadium and will host the New&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":211193,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5135],"tags":[5229,1596,56894,358,3187,67,586,132,5230,68,2969],"class_list":{"0":"post-211192","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-dallas","8":"tag-america","9":"tag-dallas","10":"tag-dallas-cowboys-news","11":"tag-texas","12":"tag-tx","13":"tag-united-states","14":"tag-united-states-of-america","15":"tag-unitedstates","16":"tag-unitedstatesofamerica","17":"tag-us","18":"tag-usa"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/115170953566735871","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/211192","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=211192"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/211192\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/211193"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=211192"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=211192"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=211192"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
