<strong> What are your thoughts?</strong>
Dallas desperation: The team is coming off a disheartening loss to the Steelers and owner Jerry Jones called out star RB Marion Barber after the game for lacking toughness. A loss to New York could put Dallas on the tailspin it narrowly averted earlier this season.
Dueling pass rushers: Dallas is ranked first in the league with 45 sacks, while New York is fourth with 37 sacks. Whichever team is better able to rush the passer in this matchup will likely have a significant advantage.
