Newly named head coach Jason Garrett wasted no time running the Cowboys hard at practice this week to get them used to life under his leadership. Garrett has a tall task ahead as he attempts to stop the freefall and change the path of the horrendous season in Dallas.

New York is coming off two 41-point games sandwiched with a bye and couldn’t be further from the Cowbys where momentum and morale are concerned.  Though there were switch ups all over the O-line during the week due to injuries, QB Eli Manning’s confidence in his protection remains strong.

Cowboys @ Giants: Betting Odds – Game Forecast

New York are marked as clear favorites with the -14 spread while the game total is set at a lofty 45.5 points.

Oddsmakers have the Giants as big favorites with the money line set at -650 while lowly Cowboys are road underdogs at +475 against the money line.

Game Forecast: It is going to be a long night for the Cowboys. Unless coach Garrett has pulled off some magic tricks in the locker room, the squad is not prepared to take Manhattan or challenge the likes of the surging G-Men.

Free Picks: We like the Giants on the money line and against the spread but see the game total staying slightly UNDER 45.5 points.
