Dallas Cowboys Form
Dallas come into their season opener looking to embark on another run to the postseason.
The Cowboys made it to the playoffs last time around by compiling a 12-5 record to finish second in the NFC East behind Philadelphia.
They lost their season opener at home to Tampa Bay, 19-3, but quickly rebounded to win 10 of their next 12 games.
Dallas then went 2-2 over their final four games of the regular season, but that did not prevent them from advancing to the Wildcard round.
There the Cowboys avenged their Week 1 loss to the Bucs, winning 31-14, but a week later their season came to an end with a 19-12 defeat at San Francisco.
New York Giants Form
New York enjoyed a successful first season under Brian Daboll, going 9-7-1 to make it to the playoffs.
The Giants made a fantastic start to the campaign as they won six of their first seven games, but their form nose-dived after a post-bye week win against Houston.
They lost five of their last eight games and tied 20-20 at home to Washington, but a couple of late-season wins against the Commanders and Indianapolis saw them over the line.
New York then ensured Daboll would enjoy a playoff win in his first season as a head coach, upsetting Minnesota 31-24 on the road.
The Giants were unable to follow that up a week later though, as they were comfortably beaten by division rivals Philadelphia, 38-7.
