Summary
The Dallas Cowboys’ season opener ended in a shocking 28-20 loss to the New York Giants, exposing major flaws despite new coaching and defensive upgrades. Head coach Brian Schottenheimer called it “pretty poor” and “humbling,” as the team was physically dominated—especially on defense—and failed to execute at any level. Dak Prescott threw for a career-low 175 yards, the offense managed just 69 rushing yards, and total yardage was the lowest of the season. The Giants controlled the game with 165 rushing yards and standout tight end Isaiah Lively (8 catches, 78 yards, 2 TDs), while Jaxson Dart shined for the Giants with 230 yards and 3 TDs. This marks the fifth time in seven years the Cowboys have started 0-1—a sobering reminder that rebuilding is far from complete.
