The Cowboys finished last season with a 12-5 record overall and they were 4-2 in their division games too. They had an 8-1 record in their home games and had a 4-4 record in their road games where they will be in this game.

Their offense was also averaging 354.9 yards per game and their defense was allowing an average of 330.2 yards per game. Dak Prescott led the team in passing yards with 2860, Tony Pollard led the team in rushing yards with 1007, and CeeDee Lamb led the team in receiving yards with 1359.

The Giants finished last season with a 9-7-1 record overall and they were 1-4-1 in their division games too. They had a 5-3-1 record in their home games and had a 4-4 record in their road games where they will be in this game.

Daniel Jones led the team in passing yards with 3205, Saquon Barkley led the team in rushing yards with 1312, and Darius Slayton led the team in receiving yards with 724.

The current betting odds have the Giants listed as a 3.5 point underdog in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The Giants finished last season with a 9-7-1 record overall which saw them make the playoffs and now that they are in their 2nd season under their new head coach, they will be looking to take a big step this season. They weren't good in their division games last season but they are going to have the home advantage here and the Cowboys struggled a lot more in their road games last year. The Cowboys finished last season with a 12-5 record overall but they were 4-4 in their road games and they always play their division rivals in close games, especially being on the road here. The Cowboys also have a lot of questions to answer this season with Dak Prescott finally being healthy so the pressure is on this team to perform right out of the gate as it always is. The Giants also have some pressure on them but they will be looking to build off of that good season, especially with so many players on the offense back. The Giants always play division rivals tough in their home games and since this is the 1st game to open up the season, both teams could have some rust so this game has "decided by a field goal" written all over it. The best way to place a bet here is on the Giants to cover the spread in this game.

“Very hard working. We have a quarterback meeting room area. He’s pretty much kind of taken it over. The grease boards look like ‘[A] Beautiful Mind.’ …We just need to work on the extra things, particularly in the area of footwork.” - Mike McCarthy on Trey Lance after trading for him.

"I think we got better from where we started. But again, until you start playing and in regular season games and adversity strikes and how you respond to things, there's a lot of things, you can't take it from one year to the next.” - Brian Daboll on his team coming into this new NFL season.
