Giants vs. Cowboys

Eli Manning fresh off signing a new contract will lead the New York Giants into an NFC East contest on the road against Tony Romo and the Dallas Cowboys.  The Cowboys are the reigning division champs and the Giants want to try to dethrone them.

This game also features two of the most electrifying receivers in the as well in the Giants Odell Beckham Jr. and the Cowboys Dez Bryant.  Both defenses are a work in progress so  I think both teams will put points on the scoreboard.

With the Cowboys being at home, I think they’ll be the ones to come out on top in the end.

Winner:  Cowboys

Score prediction:       31-27  Cowboys  

Points spread:      Cowboys -7

Over/under:  51 – Over
