Cowboys to Face The NY Giants in Week 2 of the NFL Playoffs

Posted by Nate Acreman on January 6th, 2008 filed in Main

With the Redskins losing yesterday to the Seattle Seahawks, next week playoff game would come down between the NY Giants and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Buccaneers didn’t put up much of a fight, losing to the Giants 24-14.

The Cowboys have won both meetings against the Giants this season. The Monday night opener was a nail biter, with the Cowboys winning the game 45 to 35. The next meeting wouldn’t prove to be much different with the Cowboys winning 31-20. A third meeting could prove to be another high scoring affair, and it seems only 10 points will separate the two teams.

The Giants have played good football the last two weeks, while the Cowboys have struggled. If Owens is ready to play next week against the Giants that could mean all the difference in the world. The Cowboys will be a healthier team and far more rested than the Giants, which could mean the difference between winning and losing.
