Tony Romo - a six-year, $108 million contract extension. Oh my.
The Giants have haunted the Cowboys in Arlington, but that New York defense looks vulnerable ... but then so does the Dallas D!
Monte Kiffin has installed the 4-3 Tampa 2 defense, and that brings DeMarcus Ware and Anthony Spencer onto the line. Whether the front four will prosper is only going to become apparent as the season unwinds. What is clear tonight, is that if that front can't get to Eli Manning, he'll punish Dallas.
New York have added Brandon Myers who has talent and if they can get Cruz matched up on the weak Cowboys corners, he'll put up numbers. The Giants are very excited about David Wilson and they will be encouraged by the absence of Jay Ratliff, a fine run stuffer for Dallas.
Romo certainly has the weapons to get after the Giants and Witten can have a big game. Similarly, Dez Bryant and Miles Austin will be a danger all night, but it all depends on Romo and his OL, which looks poor. The interior is soft and may make DeMarco Murray struggle to find room. Even after losing Umenyiora, the Giants can bring pressure on Romo who must make good decisions - something he has struggled with in the past.
It's a difficult call, but I'll take America's team to break the hoodoo and shade this one.
Pick: Dallas Cowboys -3.5 @ 2.0
Pick: 1st TD Jason Witten @ 11
Pick: Anytime TD Miles Austin @ 2.38
