  "account": "As the John Harbaugh era begins in New York on Sunday night, the New York Giants are focusing on a potential advantage to help Harbaugh start his career as the Giants head coach at 1-0. The perceived weakness lies at the right tackle position, where the Cowboys recently acquired Broderick Jones to compete with Terence Steele.\n\nBrian Burns, the Giants' linebacker, commented on the Cowboys' situation, stating, \"I mean, opportunity lies within the game.\" He acknowledged that both Jones and Steele are pros, but the attention given to the right tackle position raises concerns in the Giants' minds.\n\nCurrently, Terence Steele is listed as the starter at right tackle. However, their confidence in him may be questioned, as they traded for Broderick Jones. This move indicates that the Cowboys might be having struggles at that position.\n\nAnother potential vulnerability exists at left guard, where Tyler Smith is currently on injured reserve following thumb surgery. The Giants have several players who could exploit these areas: Burns, Abdul Carter, Kayvon Thibodeaux, and Arvell Reese. While the Cowboys boast of being the \"Greatest Offense There Is,\" the Giants see a tough first test ahead, especially if they can successfully attack the offensive line—40 percent of which the Cowboys should have genuine concerns about.",
