New York Giants

The New York Giants look to record their second straight regular-season opening win since 2009-2010 this Sunday night when they host the Dallas Cowboys, against whom they are 6-7 at games played at MetLife Stadium.

What must the Giants do to ensure they come out on the right side of the ledger? I've identified three keys to the game as follows:

  • Exploit the Cowboys' run defense.
  • Win in the Red Zone.
  • Score Early

Check out the video at the top of the page for the full breakdown behind these keys and why they're so important.
