The Dallas Cowboys are going from super bowl predictions to underdogs in Sundays game against the New York Giants. For the Cowboys to win, they must have superior play from their offensive line who has been anything but in recent weeks. The line has not opened up ( literally) any holes for star back Marion Barber. They have also not given immobile quarterback Brad Johnson any time to throw the football to his receivers.

 

Giants quarterback Eli Manning has torched Dallas lately in their last four meetings. He is 87-129 for 981 yards, and 9 touchdowns. Dallas has a depleted secondary right now, and will start Orlando Scandrick, who played well against Tampa Bay last week. Scandrick will have his hands full with New York`s talented wideouts. Plaxico Burress and Steve Smith are primed and ready and need no motivation to win this game. It will be interesting to see how the Cowboys respond to this game with all of this adversity. Isn`t that what the Giants did to them last year on their way to the super bowl?
