Giants vs. Cowboys 2014 picks and predictions: Surging Dallas the choice over New York
The Giants and Cowboys face off in the latest edition of their classic NFC East rivalry.

The 3-3 G-men were expected to rebound from their disastrous 7-9 campaign, but so far they are yet to show they've improved significantly enough to even finish with a winning record. Their three losses have come to teams that are a combined 13-4 overall, including last week's 27-0 beatdown at the hands of the Philadelphia Eagles. On the other hand, New York's three wins have come against teams that are a combined 6-12.
The Giants have shown they can hang with the bad teams but can’t top the good ones. They’ll have to break that trend this week if they want to defeat the Cowboys, who swept New York last season and have won three of the past four games in this rivalry.
The experts at ESPN have the Cowboys taking home a victory by an almost unanimous 13-1 margin. The CBS Sports crew has Dallas on top convincingly, 7-2. Yahoo! Sports' three-man panel went with the Cowboys, 3-0. SB Nation's team rounds out the picks by giving Dallas the sweep, 7-0.
