"We saw fresh faces get chances they normally wouldn't, while also seeing some players who absolutely should not be brought back next season. Dallas had been eliminated from playoff contention far before this game kicked off, but the record concluding under .500 is awfully fitting. It's the first time in Dak Prescott's career that he played the entire season and finished with a losing record."
"First Half: Blue Running All Over - On Both Sides To start this game, Dallas was the favorite to win, though that changed fairly quickly. The Cowboys' defense started the game off with a stop on defense, though that was 50% of their stops for the entirety of the game; put more simply, the Giants scored on all but one drive after that. Woof."
The Cowboys closed the 2025 season 7-8-1 after a 34-17 loss to the New York Giants. Fresh players received expanded roles while some veterans underperformed and should not be retained. Dallas was eliminated from playoff contention well before the finale. Dak Prescott finished his first full season with a losing record. Defensive Coordinator Matt Eberflus is expected to be fired, prompting a search for a new defensive leader. The defense allowed scores on all but one drive after the opening stop, and the offense committed a costly fumble on a snap. The Giants dominated on the ground; rookie Jaydon Blue had a breakout first start.
