Overall the Giants’ offense looked a lot better than in recent weeks. However, running back Wayne Gallman had a sloppy game that almost cost the team the game. In the first quarter, Gallman flat-out missed the handoff from Jones which resulted in a Dallas field goal.

Gallman wasn’t alone in having a tough game. Pro Bowl tight end Evan Engram also struggled, having a pass go through his hands and into the hands of a Cowboys’ defender. This resulted in the Cowboys’ only touchdown of the day.
