Giants, like the Cowboys, also saw their season end at the hands of the Packers.
This will be the first game of both Ezekiel Elliott and Dak Prescott’s sophomore season and they will be looking to start where they left off last season.
The two were some of the best players in the league, among the top in rushing and passing yards. However, the two could not seem to get it done against the Giants.
In 15 games last season Elliott had an average of about 108 yards per game. In his two games against the Giants he had a total of 158 yards. Similar to Elliott, Dak Prescott’s stats also went down in his two games against the Giants last season.
Last season Prescott threw only four interceptions, two of which were in week 14 against the Giants. The two not performing to what was expected was a major reason as to why the Giants came away with two victories against their NFC East rival.
So how will the two star rookies fare against the Giants in their sophomore season?
