The Dallas Cowboys will face off against an NFC East foe in the New York Giants Week Two attempting to bounce back in their regular season home opener.
After a poor offensive showing in Week One against the Carolina Panthers, the 0-1 Dallas Cowboys will head into Week Two trying to post their first win of the regular season against a familiar foe, the 0-1 New York Giants.
The Cowboys offense struggled to score just eight points in their 16-8 defeat at the hands of the Panthers in Carolina last weekend. The Giants also received a notch in the loss column in Week One, coming up short against the Jacksonville Jaguars in the Big Apple, 20-15.
Cowboys’ quarterback Dak Prescott and his relatively new wide receiver corps will once again be pressed into action as New York’s defense will undoubtedly go all-in on stopping running back Ezekiel Elliott and Dallas’ rushing attack. Whether Prescott and his band of receivers are up to the challenge is yet to be determined.
Defensively, the Cowboys showed a lot of promise last weekend against the Panthers. Facing a Giants’ offense full of various weapons, Dallas could have the upper hand if veteran quarterback Eli Manning continues to struggle.
