After a Week 1 road loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, the Dallas Cowboys are back at home in Week 2 to take on the New York Giants.

New York is also coming off a loss, although theirs was a one-sided blowout at the hands of the Washington Commanders. While Dallas was encouraged by their performance overall in Week 1, the Giants are already fielding questions about their quarterback situation.

As encouraging as it is to see so many experts picking the Cowboys, it's also a litte worrisome. We've all seen Dallas fall apart when they're the overwhelming favorite. Hopefully, that won't hapen since they're motivated from a frustrating loss to start the season.
