As the NFL enters Week 2 on September 15, 2025, all⁢ eyes are on the‍ Dallas Cowboys’ matchup against the​ New York Giants. Experts overwhelmingly predict a Cowboys victory, citing⁢ Dallas’s⁤ past dominance at AT&T Stadium and concerns surrounding the Giants’ offensive performance. This⁣ game carries significant weight for ⁢both teams as they seek to establish momentum early ‍in the season, with potential implications ⁤for playoff contention. The⁤ outcome will⁣ be⁤ closely watched‌ by fantasy ‍football players ⁤and fans alike, shaping Week 3 ​strategies and narratives.

The Giants face‍ a daunting challenge against a Cowboys team eager to rebound from a narrow Week 1 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles.⁢ Dallas’s home-field ⁤advantage is ample, having won eight consecutive games at AT&T Stadium against the Giants ⁣and 11 of the last 12 overall ‍encounters. The Giants’ last win in​ Dallas dates back⁣ to 2016, coinciding with their most recent playoff appearance.

Bert Bainbridge

The ‌pick: Cowboys 30, Giants 17

Here’s why: ‌AT&T Stadium has been a house of ⁢horror for the Giants. They’ve⁣ lost eight consecutive games and have come⁣ up short in 11 of ⁣the last 12 meetings in Jerry World with⁤ their last win in Dallas coming all‍ the way back in 2016, the second most recent time ⁢the G-Men⁤ have‌ made the‍ playoffs. The Micah parsons-less Cowboys nearly spoiled the Eagles banner raising night in Week 1, but came up just short with wide ⁢receivers ⁤having costly drops, including no. 1 wideout CeeDee Lamb.

Brian ⁢Marron

The pick: ​ Cowboys 24, ⁤giants 10

Here’s why: ⁣ With Russell wilson ⁢back⁣ at the⁣ helm, and with a porous ⁣offensive line, it is hard to see the Giants generating enough⁤ offense to upset the Cowboys.⁣ The ​defense can keep games close into the ⁢fourth quarter, like we saw in Week 1, ⁢but look for Dallas ⁢to ice the game with a​ late ⁣score.

Bob Jordan

The⁣ pick: ​Giants 17, Cowboys ‍14

Here’s why: Cowboys’ receiver CeeDee Lamb had four drops last ‌week⁣ against the Eagles -⁤ two of them on the final drive, highlighting how bad dallas looked ‌over the final 30 minutes⁢ of that⁤ game. The ‘Boys look ripe to get⁣ picked off⁢ by Giants.

Dave Rivera

The pick: ⁤ Cowboys 23, Giants 17

Here’s why: Dak Prescott, who has had the⁤ Giants’ number over the years, played⁣ well in​ Philly​ in ​Week 1⁢ and has given‍ Cowboys ​fans reason to ⁤believe⁤ they can compete ‍this season.Can’t⁢ say the same about Giants QB Russell‌ Wilson, ‍based on his opening performance in ⁣Washington.

Chris ⁣Iseman

The pick: Cowboys 28, Giants 14

Here’s why: The ⁤Giants showed nothing ⁣in Week 1 to indicate this year would be any​ different. So until that happens,⁤ there’s no‌ reason to think they’ll beat Dallas in Week 2.

Did you⁢ Know?

Dak Prescott boasts a strong record against the Giants, consistently delivering solid performances⁣ in their matchups.‍ his ability to exploit defensive weaknesses has made him a key factor in Dallas’s success against New ⁢York.

Pro Tip:

Keep ​a close watch on the Cowboys’ wide receiver CeeDee Lamb. If he can overcome ⁢his Week 1 dropping issues, he could be a significant‌ threat to the giants’ secondary.
