Cowboys fans decide what the big problem was in Giants loss

The Dallas Cowboys kicked off their 2026 campaign on a sour note, falling 28-20 to the New York Giants at MetLife Stadium during an NFC East battle where they spent most of the contest chasing points. Quarterback Dak Prescott failed to find his usual groove, recording 22 completions on 34 attempts alongside two touchdown strikes.

The Dallas defensive unit, overseen by Christian Parker, struggled to contain the opposition as coach Brian Schottenheimer addressed the team's setbacks following the divisional defeat.

Meanwhile, the Giants flourished behind quarterback Jaxson Dart and head coach John Harbaugh in his team debut. Dart shredded the Dallas defense by connecting on 23 of 29 throws for 230 yards and three touchdowns without a single turnover, utilizing his mobility to keep the Cowboys off balance and secure his first victory in the rivalry series.
