Cowboys Over Giants
Whether he likes it or not, all eyes will be on Dak Prescott under center when the Dallas Cowboys quarterback starts his first career game during the regular season against the New York Giants on Sunday.
The rookie will run the show for the Cowboys’ offense while Tony Romo recovers from a back injury, and it will be interesting to see what happens if the veteran quarterback is healthy enough to return this season. Prescott already has Dallas fans excited about what’s in store for the future, but the rookie still has plenty to prove despite an impressive preseason.
After back-to-back 6-10 seasons, Eli Manning and the Giants hope for better results this time around as they look to make the playoffs for the first time since the 2011 season. Odell Beckham Jr. will always make this offense dangerous, but let’s not forget about all of the weapons Prescott is going to have of his own.
