Tyler Guyton a bright spot in Cowboys’ demoralizing loss

The New York Giants kicked off their 2026-27 NFL regular season with a 28-20 victory over the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday night at MetLife Stadium. John Harbaugh earned a win in his first outing leading the Giants, while quarterback Jaxson Dart picked up his initial career triumph versus Dallas.

Despite entering the campaign with elevated expectations, the Cowboys faltered across all units, struggling with offensive inconsistency, penalties, missed chances, and lingering issues on defense.

While Tyler Guyton provided a positive showing for Dallas during the setback, questions swirled around the rest of the offensive front. Pass rusher Brian Burns of New York voiced intentions to exploit Dallas's problems at offensive tackle, directing specific focus toward Terence Steele, while Pro Bowl lineman Tyler Smith saw minimal active involvement throughout the opener.
