Summary
Dallas Cowboys’ season opener ended in a crushing 28-20 loss to the Giants, exposing major flaws in their revamped defense. Owner Jerry Jones admitted the unit—loaded with eight new starters and a new coordinator—was unprepared, plagued by communication breakdowns and players out of position. The Giants exploited these mistakes early, controlling possession and scoring consistently, while Dallas struggled to find rhythm under real-game pressure. Despite offseason optimism, the defense’s shortcomings were laid bare, turning what was meant to be a strength into the team’s glaring weakness.
