The Cowboys take on their longtime NFC East foe at noon on Sunday, seeking their first win of the season against Russell Wilson and crew.<\/a> <\/p>\n Prior to the Week 2 matchup, our columnists and beat writers at The Dallas Morning News offer up their predictions on Cowboys-Giants below.<\/p>\n Cowboys<\/p>\n By signing up, you agree to our\u00a0Terms of Service<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Privacy Policy.<\/a><\/p>\n Related<\/p>\n Unless a return to AT&T Stadium sparks Cam Skattebo<\/a>, don\u2019t look for the Giants\u2019 ground game to be too mobile Sunday. The Arizona State star who nearly derailed Texas\u2019 season in the CFP went for minus-3 yards on 2 carries against Washington. Still, it\u2019s hard to see Dallas generating more than long drives for mostly field goals until we see more production from an offense that went silent after halftime in Philadelphia.<\/p>\n Cowboys 16, Giants 13<\/b><\/p>\n Joseph Hoyt<\/p>\n The biggest challenge for the Cowboys will be the Giants\u2019 defensive line. I think they can handle it. Outside of that, I see a lot of advantages for Dallas. I expect a big bounce-back game for receiver CeeDee Lamb<\/a>. <\/p>\n Cowboys 28, Giants 13<\/b><\/p>\n Damon Marx<\/p>\n The Giants\u2019 pass rush should provide a strong test for the Cowboys\u2019 revamped offensive line, considering Dallas caught a huge break with the spit-take ejection of Eagles tackle Jalen Carter<\/a> in the opener. The Cowboys, however, have historically taken care of business against the division rivals from New York. This one might be closer than some expect, though. Also, if the home team falls to 0-2, panic will start to creep in … <\/p>\n Cowboys 17, Giants 10<\/b><\/p>\n Abraham Nudelstejer<\/p>\n The Cowboys looked better than expected in their season opener in Philadelphia, while the NY Giants, well … looked like the NY Giants. With a head coach on the hot seat, a quarterback who\u2019s a mere shadow of the great player he was with the Seahawks, and an anemic offense, Dallas shouldn\u2019t have much trouble securing their first win of the season.<\/p>\n Cowboys 24, Giants 16<\/b><\/p>\n Kevin Sherrington<\/p>\n On the heels of coming within CeeDee Lamb\u2019s three dropped passes of beating the Eagles, the Giants look like easy pickings. This isn\u2019t the version of Russell Wilson who once gave the Cowboys fits. After losing their first and 500th games, they\u2019ll win the organization\u2019s 1,000th in convincing fashion for a change. If not, the heat turns up on Brian Schottenheimer.<\/p>\n Cowboys 31, Giants 24 <\/b><\/p>\n Calvin Watkins<\/p>\n So we finally get to the home opener and the Cowboys don\u2019t have cornerback DaRon Bland<\/a> (foot) due to an injury. The Giants will also be without linebacker Micah McFadden because of an injury. The Cowboys should be fine here. This game will be close thanks to Russell Wilson and the desperation mode of the Giants. Meanwhile, the team that resides in AT&T Stadium should pull away in the second half. Trevon Diggs should get a pick in this one. <\/p>\n Dallas 24, Giants 14<\/b><\/p>\n![\"Dallas](\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/1757686573_434_Z2ZGX3KBTNCUZEXYSILPYE4CHY.jpg\")
