Dallas Cowboys vs. NY Giants NFL Pick Prediction 9/26/2024
Cowboys at Giants—Dallas starters on offense are healthy. On defense a corner is doubtful. NY receiver Slayton is questionable. On defense a nickel back in out. Dallas fell to 1-2 following their 28-25 home defeat to Baltimore. The Cowboys gained 412 yards with 51 rushing for 3.2 yards a carry. On defense they allowed 456 yards to the Ravens with 274 rushing for 6.1 yards a carry. Dak Prescott hit 28 of 51 for 379 yards with two touchdowns. NY improved to 1-2 with their 21-15 road win at Cleveland. The Giants posted 340 yards with 112 rushing for 3.5 yards a carry. On defense the Giants held the Browns to 217 yards with 148 passing on 37 attempts. Daniel Jones completed 24 of 34 for 236 yards with two touchdowns.
The Pick:
The Giants have a light injury advantage based on Dr Chao’s injury rankings with the injury to the Cowboys corner. Dallas defense is performing poorly by allowing 5.4 yards per run and allowing 7.4 yards per pass attempt. Their run game generates only 3.6 yards a carry and the passing game only 6.5 yards per pass attempt. NY is moving the football on the ground for 4.2 yards a carry and limit opposing quarterbacks to 6.2 yards per pass attempt. The shape of the Cowboys defense makes it tough to lay these points on the road and factor the travel on a short week. Play NY +6.
