Cowboys vs. Giants Thursday Night Football: Live updates, score, highlights, how to watch Dallas vs. New York

Posted by Admin September 26, 2024 Football

Cowboys vs. Giants has become a staple of the early-season prime-time landscape of the NFL, and this year the ancient NFC East rivals play their first matchup on Thursday Night Football to open up Week 4. Both teams enter with 1-2 records, with their lone win coming over the Cleveland Browns.

Dallas enters the matchup reeling on its defensive front seven, allowing a league-worst 185.7 rushing yards per game and getting steamrolled on the ground by the Saints and Ravens over the past two weeks. The Cowboys have allowed 464 rushing yards in the past two defeats — only two other teams have given up that many rushing yards in three games.

The Giants will likely try to exploit that, even though they’re in the middle of the pack in rushing offense. Devin Singletary has gotten going with a couple of rushing touchdowns over the past two weeks and Daniel Jones is 21st among qualified quarterbacks in passer rating.

Date: Thursday, Sept. 26

Touchdown, Dallas

Cowboys take over and go 70 yards in five plays, finished off with a 55-yard pass from Dak Prescot to CeeDee Lamb.

Will Brandon Aubrey kick a 60-yarder tonight?

Brandon Aubrey hit a 65-yard field goal in Week 3. What will his longest kick be tonight?

From Frank Schwab:

Even in a league that has more excellent long-range kickers than ever, Aubrey stands out. He hit a 66-yard field goal in preseason at Las Vegas, and it would have been good from 72 yards according to the tracker. In Week 1 he was going to try a 66-yard field goal but there was a delay-of-game penalty. Cowboys coach Mike McCarthy contemplated trying a 71-yarder before being talked out of it.
