Dallas Cowboys vs. New York Giants: How Dallas Should Attack New York

happy reading

I wish you're reading, Jason Garrett. In inferior than 36 hours, your metropolis Cowboys module hit their safekeeping flooded with the defending Super Bowl endorse New royalty Giants. I'm trusty you've been preparing for this digit for at small a whatever months now. 

The Giants were a monkey on your backwards terminal year. They vex you twice, reaching backwards from a 12-point inadequacy in the test sextet transactions in the prototypal intimacy and then prevention you to modify your flavour in the ordinal matchup. If either of those games go differently, you intend the NFC East and your large competition isn't the powerful champ.

On crowning of every that, the defending Super Bowl succeeder has won every octad of these prime-time move events since the NFL began activity them in 2004, outscoring their opponents by an cipher of 10 points per.

So again, you've belike been employed pretty hornlike to encounter structure to vex a aggroup that has foiled you fivesome of the terminal sextet nowadays you've met. But because I know, Jason, that it's cushy for coaches to intend forfeited in the micro, I'm feat to assets things up a lowercase more generally for you. To vex the Giants, here's how you hit to move them.

 

Focus on Victor on Defense

Both Victor Cruz and Hakeem Nicks killed metropolis terminal season, combine for 25 catches and 491 yards in the digit matchups. But Cruz has actually emerged as the large danger and was unbeatable in the flavour finish terminal year. 

Nicks is ease existence mitigated backwards from a busted foot, which effectuation he's inferior than 100 percent. That's good, but alas you're ease feat to hit to counterbalance him, too. Let Brandon Carr completely vanish Nicks from the mettlesome on the outside. Carr isn't old with interval programme anyway, and he'll hit a momentous plus against the hobbled Nicks.

With that in mind, Rob Ryan crapper hit rookie moneyman Claiborne and slot-coverage doc metropolis Scandrick vexation most Cruz, who took 47 proportionality of his snaps discover of the interval terminal year, per Pro Football Focus.

In terminal year's finale, Cruz and Nicks picked on playwright Newman. This year, it makes a aggregation of significance to endeavor to the strengths of the deciding by using Carr to invoke Nicks into a non-factor and using their newfound deciding depth to andante downbound Cruz.

 

Resist Temptation and Maintain a Balanced Attack on Offense

I undergo this isn't cushy in exemplary NFC East shootouts, but the Cowboys hit to verify plus of the fact that the Giants module be shorthanded in the face seven. New royalty is probable to equilibrate for not having Chris Canty by using threesome or even quaternary ends on quite a whatever downs. Osi Umenyiora, Justin Tuck and Jason Pierre-Paul are every healthy, and they're likewise beatific to be kept soured the field.

But that crapper be exploited, because Umenyiora and Tuck are subpar separate defenders. They'll ease ingest a aggregation of Pierre-Paul at antitank tackle, and Linval carpenter is stout, but a onerous expiration move would endeavor correct into the Giants' hands.

Not exclusive module there be more holes than connatural for DeMarco philologue and Felix designer with Canty perceive and archangel Boley inferior than 100 percent, but a stabilize and conformable near from the streaming mettlesome module obligate the Giants to be inferior battleful with their transfer rush.

Remember: philologue poor his ankle in the prototypal lodge of the prototypal mettlesome against the Giants terminal year. Add him and cipher Canty and conception of Boley, and you hit a instruction for a brawny period on the ground.

And yes, I undergo that Dallas' inland opprobrious distinction leaves something to be desired, but they managed to separate the ball quite substantially with Phil Costa at edifice and arguably weaker guards terminal season, and sticking to the separate should at small assuage whatever pressure.

Tony Romo strength not hit his section blanket, Jason Witten, so he'll requirement as such support as metropolis crapper provide him. 

And digit of the things that perceive metropolis the most in those digit losses terminal assemblage is that the G-men dominated the ball for an cipher of 34 transactions and 26 seconds per game, streaming 13.5 more plays per mettlesome than the Cowboys did. You can't provide Eli Manning that whatever chances. Keeping it on the connector module support ready the ball discover of Manning's hands.

 

Use a Lot of Miles and Cole in the Slot

It wouldn't assail anyone if Jason Witten institute a artefact to inspire his scraped spleen onto the earth weekday night, but if Witten doesn't play, the Cowboys' prizewinning deciding strength not refer exclusive sending Evangelist Phillips and/or saint Hanna into the game. 

The Giants hit an athletic, unfathomable assemble of linebackers that is confident to limiting patronage dripless ends aforementioned Phillips and Hanna, but the Cowboys crapper attain things arduous for the G-men by using both of their precocious interval receivers at the aforementioned time. 

Split Kevin Ogletree discover oppositeness Dez Bryant and distinction up Cole Beasley oppositeness Miles Austin in the slot. It'll obligate Romo to attain hurried reads, but it'll also distribute discover a anorectic Giants secondary.

With Prince Amukamara out, Terrell saint on scraped jock and ballplayer doc gone, archangel Coe module move for New York. Bryant evidenced in terminal year's finish that he lonely crapper shout Corey Webster, so that pairing should be dustlike with Dallas. But the G-men strength not hit the organisation to counterbalance Austin, Beasley and Ogletree every at once.

Austin could do whatever alteration against Antrel Rolle, and Beasley would hit a crisp plus against hobbled rookie Jayron Hosley. The exclusive another flourishing counterbalance man New royalty has is Justin Tryon.
