NFL Week 4: Cowboys @ Giants preview

The Dallas Cowboys will be looking to get their season back on track as they kick off NFL Week 4 with an NFC East matchup against the New York Giants at MetLife Stadium this Thursday night.

The Cowboys suffered their second consecutive defeat last Sunday, falling to the Baltimore Ravens by three points. It was a poor first three quarters from Dallas that set up the result, as the Ravens led 28-6 at the start of the fourth term. Three late touchdowns gave Mike McCarthy’s men some hope, but they couldn’t quite pull off the miracle.

At 1-2, the concerns for the Cowboys are mainly on the defensive end, where they have the third-worst record in the NFL. However, quarterback Dak Prescott continues to perform on offense, which suggests success isn’t too far away.

Safety Markquese Bell and rookie corner Caelen Carson were the only non-participants at Cowboys training on Monday, as Dallas have one of the healthiest squads in the league.

The Giants secured their first victory of the season last Sunday, beating the Cleveland Browns by six points on the road. In a low-scoring game, the combination of quarterback Daniel Jones and rookie wide receiver Malik Nabers added two touchdowns, while running back Devin Singletary scored one on the ground.

Although the result is nothing spectacular, it is an improvement on the 24 points scored in the two previous weeks combined. It was also a season-best effort from the defense, which benefited from spending less time on the field.

Cornerback pair Adoree’ Jackson and Dru Phillips didn’t participate in Giants training on Monday and are in doubt for this week.

Cowboys @ Giants betting predictions

The Cowboys have won the last six matchups between these sides by an average of 21 points. With a strong passing offense, expect the Cowboys to target the Giants’ backup cornerbacks, which could lead to some heavy scoring. As such, get on Dallas to cover the line of 5.5 points at -111.11 with leading NFL bookmakers.

The Cowboys’ three games this season have all been high-scoring affairs, thanks to their strong passing game and their struggling defense. As they lack a consistent ground game, don’t expect them to run down the clock, which could open the door for an improving Giants offense. At -111.11 with top sports betting sites, back this game to go over the total points line of 45.

With 136 receiving yards and a touchdown this season, Jalen Tolbert has been a surprising performer for the Cowboys. The third-year wide receiver has the second-most targets on offense this season and offers excellent value to find the endzone at +375 with top online bookmakers.
