Nobody won, somebody lost, and we have a lot to say about it.

This week on Good Friends, Better Rivals, we break down a wild NFC East Sunday. The Giants and Commanders battled to a 27-27 tie, the kind of game where both fanbases leave feeling like they should have won and wondering how they didn’t lose. Meanwhile, the Cowboys dropped a tough one to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and the debate over what’s going wrong in Dallas is about to get loud.

Where the NFC East stands heading into next week

We’re friends, we’re rivals, and we’re not holding back.

Week 4 is in the books, and it was a good one for both sides of the rivalry. On this episode of Good Friends, Better Rivals, we break down the Cowboys' nail-biting 34-30 win over Houston and the Giants' 36-24 victory.

CeeDee Lamb put the offense on his back with a 17-catch performance, and we talk about how he took over the game and what it means for this offense moving forward. The Cowboys needed every point to hold off the Texans in a back-and-forth shootout, and we dig into what worked, what didn't, and whether this team can keep winning games this way.

On the other side, the Giants put together a complete performance, capped off by Tae Banks sealing the game with an interception for a touchdown. We discuss what's clicking for New York, who stood out, and whether this is a sign of something real or just one good Sunday.

Where each team stands heading into Week 5

Friendly rivalry trash talk (as always)

Two fans, two teams, one rivalry. We're friends first, but nobody's holding back when it's time to talk football.

Week 3 gave both sides of the rivalry plenty to talk about, and not all of it was good.

In Rio de Janeiro, the Cowboys fell 34-31 to the Ravens on a last-second 56-yard Tyler Loop field goal. Dallas is now 1-2, and we dig into how a game the offense kept alive slipped away in the final seconds.

Meanwhile, the Giants won ugly in the rain, 12-7 over the Titans. It was New York's first game without Jaxson Dart after his season-ending knee injury, and the offense kicked four field goals and leaned on the ground game. It was far from pretty, but it moved them to 2-1. We talk about what the rest of the season looks like without Dart.

Then the big news: the Cowboys have traded for Steelers cornerback Joey Porter Jr., sending Pittsburgh a 2028 second-round pick and a 2027 sixth-round pick. Dallas desperately needs help on defense, which ranks 30th in total defense with no interceptions yet this season. Is Jerry Jones finally fixing the secondary, or did he overpay? We break down the price tag, what Porter brings after a monthslong contract standoff and a back issue, and whether he can debut against the Texans in Week 4.

Rivals on the field, friends at the mic. Hit play, then tell us who's right.

Caleb and guest host Hendo (@RougPod) react to a brutal Week 2 for the Giants and a historic night for the Cowboys. Jaxson Dart went down with a knee injury against the Rams that could end his season, leaving Jameis Winston under center as New York's Super Bowl hopes take a massive hit. Meanwhile, Dak Prescott made franchise history, breaking the Cowboys' all-time passing touchdown record in a win over the Commanders. The guys break down what Dart's injury means for the Giants' 2026 season, how the offense looks with Winston at QB, and what Dak's record-setting night says about Dallas' turnaround. Then they preview Week 3, with the Giants hosting the Titans and the Cowboys in Brazil versus the Ravens.

Fares and Caleb preview Week 1 of the 2026 NFL season as the Cowboys travel to face the Giants on Sunday Night Football (Sun, 9/13, 8:20 PM ET on NBC).

This one comes loaded with storylines: it's John Harbaugh's first game as Giants head coach, and if healthy, it sets up the first true head-to-head between Jaxson Dart and Dak Prescott. CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens test a retooled Giants secondary, while a revamped Cowboys defense under new coordinator Christian Parker gets its first real look against New York's offense. Add in possible NFL debuts for rookies Arvell Reese (Giants) and Caleb Downs (Cowboys) — former Ohio State teammates now on opposite sidelines — and this NFC East opener has plenty riding on it.

The two split last season's series, with Dallas escaping with a wild 40-37 overtime win before New York closed things out with a 34-17 statement win at home. Fares and Caleb break down what to watch for, where each team has the edge, and lock in their picks before kickoff.

Preseason Week 3 is officially in the books for the Giants and Cowboys, and now the real work begins: cutting both rosters down to 53 by Sunday's deadline. On this episode of Good Friends Better Rivals, Fares and Caleb react to what went down on the field for both teams and break down exactly what it means for the players fighting for their jobs.

Fares and Caleb break down a huge Preseason Week 2 for both the Giants and Cowboys. Big Blue dominated Miami 26-3 at Hard Rock Stadium, and Dallas cruised past Arizona 34-13 at State Farm Stadium. Plenty to unpack from both sides.

On the Giants side, the guys dive into the ongoing kicker battle between Ben Sauls and Dominic Zvada — both hit two field goals apiece, and the race is still wide open heading into the preseason finale. They also cover Jameis Winston and Devin Singletary's rushing touchdowns, a strong second-team offensive line performance, and rookie J.C. Davis looking like a lock at left tackle.

On the Cowboys side, Fares and Caleb spotlight rookie linebacker Jaishawn Barham's electric preseason debut — a tackle for loss, a pressure off the edge, and a highlight-reel run-down that has people already calling him one of the steals of the draft. They also touch on the Malik Davis/Jaydon Blue running back competition and Joe Milton's continued strong camp.
