10. Cowboys vs. Giants • Sept. 10, 2017 • AT&T Stadium • W, 19-3
The defense ruled in this Sunday night showdown, as Dallas surrendered a paltry 35 rushing yards while holding the Giants to only 233 total yards of offense overall.

9. Cowboys vs. Giants • Sept. 9, 2007 • Texas Stadium • W, 45-35
A shootout if ever there was one, the two teams combined for 80 points, which is the seventh-most ever in a Cowboys game.

8. Cowboys vs. Giants • Sept. 19, 1965 • Cotton Bowl • W, 31-2
Perhaps the start of what would later become the famed Doomsday Defense, the Cowboys simply manhandled the Giants, allowing only 139 yards of offense with five sacks and four takeaways.

5. Cowboys vs. Giants • Sept. 8, 2013 • AT&T Stadium • W, 36-31
Having narrowed the score to 30-24, the Giants were threatening again with two minutes remaining when cornerback Brandon Carr corralled a tipped pass and raced down the left sideline for a 49-yard pick-six.

4. Cowboys vs. Giants • Sept. 18, 1966 • Cotton Bowl • W, 52-7
This marked the beginning of an unmatched run that would see the Cowboys produce 20 straight winning seasons.
