There were fans who looked at the schedule and saw a Cowboys team that had been dominating their Giants followed by that supposed Rams Superteam eager for its home opener on “Monday Night Football,” and they couldn’t help but feel a sense of dread:
How much would an 0-2 start upend the hype and hope of the start of the John Harbaugh Era?
But then those cruel football gods who have been tormenting them relented, and lo and behold, their Giants bullied the Cowboys, and the Rams were humbled by the 49ers in Australia, and Myles Garrett (knee) will miss the next four games.
So the worst their Giants can be when they return home early Tuesday morning is 1-1.
