Story summary

In Week 1 of the NFL, both the New York Giants and Jets started their seasons with victories, marking the first time since 2009 that both local teams began a season with a 1-0 record. The Giants followed up on the Jets' earlier win by defeating the Cowboys in primetime, winning 28-20, under new coach John Harbaugh's leadership. The game showcased second-year quarterback Jaxson Dart's efficiency with three touchdown passes and 54 rushing yards without any turnovers. This victory was particularly significant as it highlighted the positive impact of recent roster additions made by the Giants through both free agency and the draft, which had previously failed to live up to expectations.
