Send us a text

In this live episode of *"2 Giants Goofballs: New York Giants News & Updates,"* Drew and Rob bring fans the latest New York Giants news, updates, and rumors, starting with a discussion on the Giants' recent kicking troubles. New kicker Greg Joseph missed a crucial field goal in the Giants' win against the Browns, sparking questions about whether the team will be looking for a new kicker soon. Head coach Daboll didn’t commit to keeping Joseph as the kicker for the upcoming game, leaving the door open for possible personnel changes. Drew and Rob break down what Joseph’s future might look like and how it could impact the Giants moving forward.
The focus then shifts to the Giants’ upcoming Week 4 matchup against their NFC East rivals, the Dallas Cowboys. With the Cowboys struggling to find their rhythm this season, sitting at 1-2, Drew and Rob analyze their chances against the Giants. The Cowboys started the season strong with a win over the Browns but have since faltered with back-to-back losses to the Saints and Ravens. The hosts dive into the Cowboys’ offensive struggles, particularly their inefficient run game. With Tony Pollard now with the Titans and Ezekiel Elliott past his prime, the Cowboys are relying on a weak running attack that ranks 29th in the NFL in yards per game. Drew and Rob discuss how the Giants' defense, led by Thibodeaux, can take advantage of Dallas' lack of run production and put pressure on Dak.
The Giants’ defense, which boasts the second-best sack percentage in the league, will be key in this matchup. Drew and Rob highlight how important it is for the Giants to disrupt Prescott and force Dallas into uncomfortable situations. Meanwhile, Dallas' defense has been a tale of two extremes—while their run defense is ranked dead last in the NFL, their pass defense has been solid, sitting in the top 10 in several categories. The hosts emphasize the need for the Giants to exploit this weakness by pounding the run game and setting up play-action passes to get rookie wide receiver Malik Nabers involved.
Injury reports for both teams will also play a significant role in the game. Drew and Rob discuss the impact of players like Dexter Lawrence and Micah McFadden returning to full participation for the Giants, while the Cowboys' injury list, featuring key names like Trevon Diggs and Demarcus Lawrence, could tilt the balance in the Giants' favor. The absence of Cowboys' starting safety Markquese Bell could leave Dallas vulnerable in the secondary, providing an opportunity for the Giants to strike.
