The Dallas Cowboys are set to take on the New York Giants this Thursday, November 28, 2024, at 4:30 PM ET at AT&T Stadium. The Cowboys are sitting at 4-7, and while they managed to grab a 34-26 win over the Washington Commanders in Week 10, they still haven’t really hit their groove this season. The Giants are having an even rougher time, though. With just a 2-9 record, they’re riding a six-game losing streak. Their most recent loss was a 30-7 blowout at the hands of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Dallas Cowboys vs. New York Giants: Head To Head Stats
The Cowboys and Giants rivalry began in 1960. The Giants initially had the upper hand, but by the mid-60s, the Cowboys started taking control. In fact, during the 70s, Dallas won 17 of 20 games against the Giants! Then the Giants came back strong in the 80s, and since then, it’s been pretty back-and-forth, with both teams having their fair share of wins. It’s been a crazy ride! Lately, though, it’s been all Cowboys, as they’ve won 11 of the last 12 games since 2017.
What makes this rivalry even more interesting is how rare it is. There’s no other Texas team facing off regularly with a New York team in the same division, so it really stands out in the world of sports. As of now, the Cowboys lead the all-time series 76–47–2, though the Giants have the edge in their one playoff meeting, holding a 1–0 record.
