Well, what a way to begin the season! The Cowboys utterly dominated the Giants from start to finish and closed it out with a 40-0 final score. That’s the first time since 1999 - when the Steelers beat the Browns in their first game since being reestablished as a franchise - that a team has both been shut out and allowed 40+ points in a season opener, which puts into context just how good of a game this was for Dallas.
Of course, this was over pretty quickly. The Cowboys took a 26-0 lead into halftime, and the Giants already looked defeated by that point.
