Giants Fall to Cowboys

Coming off a bye, the Giants appear to have gotten out of sync both offensively and defensively. New York is ranked last in the league in stopping teams from converting on third down, which is something that the Giants defense has showcased through the better parts of last night?s game.

The Giants who led the league in points scored, struggled to get into the end zone. As a matter of fact their first touchdown in the game cam with seconds left in regulation., as a result of Manning?s 24-yard touchdown pass to Jeremy Shockey, forcing overtime.

With this loss the Giants have lost all the momentum they had before the bye. Next week, the Giants will be hosting the Denver Broncos. New York better get its act together in a hurry if they plan to snap out of the loss this week.
