Five reasons why the Cowboys will beat the Giants
1. The Cowboys are embarrassed that their only victories have come against creampuffs with a combined 4-13 record.
2. Giants receivers Amani Toomer and Plaxico Burress vs. corners Terence Newman and Anthony Henry is a matchup that favors the Cowboys. While Toomer and Burress struggle to get open against one of the league's top corner tandems, outside linebackers DeMarcus Ware and Greg Ellis get to know Eli Manning.
3. The Cowboys will finally get Terrell Owens involved early, allowing things to open up for Terry Glenn, Witten and Julius Jones.
4. With their next three games on the road, the Cowboys can't afford a loss.
5. Tiki Barber has averaged just 65 yards rushing in 17 games against the Cowboys.
Five reasons why the Giants will beat the Cowboys
1. Cowboys tackles Flozell Adams and Marc Colombo are no match for Giants defensive ends Osi Umenyiora and Michael Strahan.
2. Isn't it time for Drew Bledsoe to have another bad game?
3. The Giants' press coverage leads to another slow start by Owens, who has a sideline meltdown and takes the team down with him.
4. Barber wants his last game at Texas Stadium to be a memorable one.
5. The Giants have won five of their last nine games at Texas Stadium.
Cowboys 26, Giants 24: The Cowboys are determined to prove they are not a yo-yo team. Plus, this is a getaway game they can't afford to lose.
