Sunday night in Dallas the Cowboys play host their division rivals the New York Giants in a huge game with serious playoff implications. Odds makers are calling the Cowboys home favorites in Texas Stadium. NFL betting odds have Dallas at -3 with the total in the game sitting at 46.5.

The Cowboys will be looking to bounce back from their tough 20-13 loss to the Steelers from a week ago. Pittsburgh snapped Dallas' three game winning streak with a 10 point come from behind victory at Heinz Field. The Steelers scored two touchdowns in the last 2 minutes to come away with the victory.

"The way that game ended, it's almost like a blur," said Cowboys defensive end Marcus Spears. "What happened?"

Now at 8-5, the Cowboys will likely need to win out to earn
a wild-card berth.

Last week the Giants had a winning streak of their own snapped by the Philadelphia Eagles. At 20-14, home loss gave the Giants their second defeat of the season. New York had an opportunity to clinch a first-round bye last week, but struggled against the Eagles. However, they won't put any blame on the loss of receiver Plaxico Burress.

The Giants were held to their fewest points since their 35-14 loss at Cleveland.

"Obviously guys are disappointed, but we are not hanging our heads, we are not moping around here," quarterback Eli Manning said. "We know we have some big games ahead of us and right now we are playing to try to get better. Our goal is to get better and get back to playing our style of football."

The Giants will rebound. Take New York getting the 3 points.
