New York Giants vs. Dallas Cowboys Prediction, Pick Against the Spread and Latest Odds

The Dallas Cowboys and the New York Giants meet for a Thursday Night Football showdown in the NFC East.

Now, we get a pair of NFC teams struggling to stay afloat meeting in New Jersey. Who comes out on top? Let's take a look at our best NFL picks for tonight's game.
