Dallas has made many mistakes in the first half and NY Giants have capitalized with the lead at the half.

Another field goal by NY and the lead is extended even further. Then if that wasn’t enough but another interception thrown by Tony Romo and NY takes the pick in for another touchdown.

The Giants now have a 23 point lead and have held the Cowboys to a no score game. On the next possession by the Giants, Dallas manages to force a fumble and recover the ball. The Cowboys must do something on this possession as a boost of confidence and to get at least some momemtum before the end of the half.

This drive saw Romo with more incomplete passes and the Dallas offense just can’t make anything happen. The Giants defense is doing a good job of keeping the receivers covered and not allowing Romo to do anything effective within the pocket and they must punt again.

Dallas defense played this drive well and forces NY to punt. If Dallas wants to get back into this game at all they just have to stop making the mistakes they made early in the game.

A few good throws and good catches, even in heavy traffic and Dallas is moving the ball well again early in the drive. They have started a few other drives this way but it does appear they are ready to turn things around even if only for the moment.

A first down deep in NY territory and they may be able to turn it into a score. And they do manage to get the touchdown and put the first points up for Dallas. This was a very important score for them since the last thing they would have wanted to to go to the locker room being shut out.

Dallas does not force a 3 and out but they do stop the Giants and they punt. The Cowboys start the drive with average field position and get a first down on the first play. Then they get a deep pass and suddenly have the ball approaching the red zone on about the 24 and are within scoring distance just as the 2 minute warning on the half arrives.

Once again the NY defense stops Romo on 3rd down and they take a 51 yard field goal. They have cut the lead to 13 and the score is Dallas 10 to NY 23. NY has under a minute left and 3 time outs in the half to try and increase their lead.

NY is unable to do anything on the drive and the half time score is Dallas 23 to Giants 10.
