The New York Giants were left for dead weeks ago and now as the Dallas Cowboys come to MetLife Stadium in Week 12, both teams are in contention for the NFC East title and this is a huge divisional matchup and it will start up as the national game on FOX starting at 4:25 pm and comes as the G-Men have won four straight games and the matchup will stream live from the NFL.com league website.
The Giants have been playing very well as of late and many thought it would be impossible that the team would be relevant at this point in the schedule after starting 0-6, but after the Cowboys lost bad to the Saints before their bye week, many are picking New York as the winner of this matchup after some past success at home. The Giants streak started with a loss to the Cowboys in Week 1 and after losing their first six, the team has come back with four victories in a row and any chance they have in the NFC East this season must keep going with a win in Week 12 and it would help push the Cowboys down and tie the two teams in the standings. The defense for the Giants has been playing very well over the past four weeks and the team now is ranked in the top 10 in rushing yards allowed per game and over the past four matchups they have played against solid backs like Adrian Peterson, LeSean McCoy and Eddie Lacy.

The Giants lost some games against very solid teams during their streak and that included the Kansas City Chiefs and Denver Broncos as well as the Carolina Panthers and now they have the chance to really turn things around with their fifth straight win and the third at home in a row if they can get the victory. After playing against the Cowboys, the Giants have another divisional matchup with the Washington Redskins and that is the first of two straight road games before playing against the San Diego Chargers on the west coast and that is always fun for the fans and Eli Manning after all these years and those games will be tough and it will be hard for the Giants to stay in things if they lose games in the division. The Giants have improved their rushing game as well with Andre Brown coming back and now the team ranks in the top 15 in passing yards allowed, rushing yards allowed and passing yards gained per game and that has been much better than the first part of the season.
The Giants have a very tough schedule heading into the back stretch of the season and it comes after a nice win against the Green Bay Packers that the team desperately needed and now they will next play the Redskins on Sunday night football after playing the Cowboys at home. The team plays three of the next four on the road after the game against Dallas, playing at Washington before the Chargers matchup in San Diego and then the team returns home for a big test against the Seattle Seahawks, the best team in the conference and a Super Bowl favorite and then the team hits the road for the Detroit Lions before coming back home in what should be a crucial matchup against the Redskins.
Eli Manning has been playing much better down the stretch this season and he will need to continue doing that for the team to win on Sunday. The game starts up as the national game on FOX at 4:25 and some of the early games has the Jacksonville Jaguars winning and now the New York Giants will be taking on the Dallas Cowboys in a game from MetLife Stadium and is a huge divisional matchup.
