Coach Brian Daboll went for it on fourth down several times Thursday night, going 3-of-4, but eschewed several opportunities to take a shot at the end zone early. The most questionable was booting a fourth field goal despite driving down to the 3-yard-line early in the third quarter. Had Big Blue punched that in, the game might have unfolded differently.

The Giants have yet to score a touchdown in two home games this season — five field goals Thursday night and two FGs in Week 1 versus Minnesota.

Facing a team that put up 40 burgers in two blowouts last season, Daboll’s team showed improvement, particularly along the revamped offensive line. However, the results remained unchanged, as Big Blue lost its seventh straight to Dallas.

“Again, the result stinks,” he said. “But I thought there was improvement. I think there’s been continual improvement of the results. Last week we got the result we wanted (a victory in Cleveland), this week we didn’t. Which is hurtful. It hurts, it’s painful, you work your butt off.”
