Giants' Week 1 blueprint: power run and Dart's precise performance vs Cowboys

The Giants opened John Harbaugh’s tenure with a Week 1 win over the Cowboys built on a punishing run game (165 rushing yards to 69) and a precise, pocket-based performance from Jaxson Dart (23 of 29 for 230 yards, 3 TDs, 0 INT). New York controlled the line of scrimmage and time of possession, limited Dallas’s rushing attack, and showcased Dart’s on-time throws and pocket composure, suggesting the Harbaugh-era Giants could be a major threat in 2026 if this level of execution is maintained.
