1. The Giants will finally defeat the Cowboys

The Giants have had a hard time defeating teams in the NFC East and the Cowboys are no exception. Since the 2016 season, the Giants have beaten Dallas only three times in their last 15 matchups. Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott hasn't even lost to Big Blue since his rookie season in 2016 as well. That will finally all change on Thursday night.

While the Cowboys are undoubtedly the better team heading into this divisional clash, they're still heading into this game reeling. They have looked flat in their last two games, with the defense allowing a combined 72 points and their offense has tended to get off to slow starts. With the Cowboys' struggles clearly on display and the Giants playing much better as of late, can they finally break through against their NFC East foe?

New York has seen much more improvements on offense, as they've been able to put together solid drives and the defense led by Burns, Kayvon Thibodeaux and Dexter Lawrence has finally shown how good they can be up front. While this game will be a close matchup indeed, it should not be a surprise if Big Blue defeats their rival for the first time in almost four years in front of their home crowd.
