After Tommy DeVito was injured in his first start of the season last weekend, the Giants' true backup Drew Lock was promoted to QB1 for a Thanksgiving game in Jerry World.As you may expect, the Giants were embarrassed on National Television, losing their eight consecutive game to the rival Dallas Cowboys.
Big Blue started off the game with a very solid offensive drive down the field that resulted in a Tyrone Tracy rushing TD. The clear game plan early on was to get the ball to Malik Nabers, who has recently made several off-field comments about not getting enough touches.
Despite this, Dallas matched it with several strong offensive drives of their own. With Dallas' run game led by Rico Dowdle carrying a majority of the workload. Things went from bad to worse when Dexter Lawrence went down with an elbow injury, allowing for even wider holes for him to run through.
This was topped off by a DeMarvion Overshown pick six that gave Dallas a commanding lead and didn't allow the Giants to come back despite a decent overall effort. The game ended 27-20, with Dallas winning their first home game since last December.

The loss puts the Giants back in position for the first overall pick in the NFL Draft, and with things heating up in the college football world I recommend watching Miami, Alabama, Ole Miss, and Colorado games to watch out next QB.
There's not really much else I have to say without repeating what I've said every other week of this season from hell. The G-Men will head home for a date with the Saints next week, with a real shot at solidifying a top three pick. Lets' keep tanking.
