New York Giants 2021 NFL schedule: 5 must-win games

4) at Dallas Cowboys

AT&T Stadium has been a house of horrors for the NY Giants, and with a healthy Dak Prescott, it won’t be any easier for New York to escape with a win in Arlington this year than in years past.

The NY Giants finally broke a seven-game skid against Dallas, in last year’s season finale at MetLife Stadium. However, the Cowboys have won four straight games in Jerry World, dating back to 2016.

While Dallas’ receiving corps is as dangerous — and speedy — as they come, with Amari Cooper, CeeDee Lamb, and Michael Gallup, the Giants’ secondary got significantly better this offseason with the addition of Adoree’ Jackson to an already improved group that includes veteran Logan Ryan playing a key role.

Will this be the year that the Giants escape Dallas with a victory? If they have any real designs on winning the NFC East, this is a game New York has to have, as the Cowboys boast arguably the most talented roster in the division and should be the favorites to win it, come September.
