If only for a moment, Cowboys Nation can breathe a sigh of relief. Facing a dreaded 1-3 start to begin the regular season, the Dallas Cowboys escaped from MetLife Stadium with a close 20-15 win Thursday night over the New York Giants. Even before the night began, the Cowboys were scrambling for healthy bodies to suit up in their secondary. Having played a physical Baltimore Ravens team only four days ago, Dallas was without Caelen Carson and Markquese Bell. The injuries only piled up from there.
As the game wore on, Micah Parsons and DeMarcus Lawrence left the game with injuries, and you could only hope that Dallas could survive the night.
