There is no doubt that the Giants are going to need winning results with Wilson against the Cowboys in Week 2. If the offense looks the same in Week 2 against Dallas, then Dart is most likely going to be the starting quarterback for New York in Week 3 against the Kansas City Chiefs. A lot of Giants fans want to point to the offensive line being the issue, but Daboll may have no choice but to switch to Dart soon anyways in order to save his job.
