Giants’ offense rolls over the Cowboys to give coach John Harbaugh a 28-20 win in his debut
- The New York Giants opened the season by beating the Dallas Cowboys 28-20 at MetLife Stadium on Sunday, marking head coach John Harbaugh's debut.
- Expectations for the Cowboys were high, yet the defense struggled, conceding 165 rushing yards and failing to improve upon a poor 2025 performance.
- Dallas hindered its own efforts with eight penalties for 85 yards, including a taunting foul by Javonte Williams that forced kicker Brandon Aubrey to miss an extra point.
- Cowboys head coach Brian Schottenheimer, who claimed, "I Feel Very Different About This Defense Going Into Game 1," now faces scrutiny following the disorganized defensive showing.
- The 0-1 Cowboys turn their attention to Week 2, preparing for a divisional matchup against the Washington Commanders on Sunday, September 20.
