Cowboys Madden simulation predicts big-time win over Giants on Thanksgiving Day
The Dallas Cowboys are in the middle of some chaos as they are coming off of a win on Sunday against the Washington Commanders and preparing for a Thanksgiving Day showdown against the New York Giants. This is an annual exercise, but it never gets easy.
It goes without saying that fans, and arguably the Cowboys themselves, are feeling in a different way with how they are coming off of a win for the first time in just about two months. Oddsmakers are feeling the Cowboys as well as they believe Dallas will win and will do so handily. Laying money on the Cowboys at this point is certainly risky at best, though.
The New York Giants may be that bad though, but as we like to say, you never know how things like this are going to go. In an effort to understand what will happen as best as we can, we did what we always do. We ran a simulation in Madden 25.
You can watch our entire simulation below.
Madden believes not only that the Cowboys will win, but that the Thanksgiving Day holiday will be a celebration from start to finish. The game has Dallas securing their first victory in their home building by a whopping 48-14 score.
This type of thing certainly feels unbelievable, even given as bad as the Giants have been. For what it’s worth, Madden has not predicted any Cowboys game to be so lopsided this season.

Last week saw Madden correctly predict the Cowboys to win for only the second time this season. It has yet to do that two weeks in a row and this will be the first opportunity that it has to heat up a little.
Of note, the final real play in this game was a DaRon Bland pick-six that looked eerily similar to the one he had on Thanksgiving last season that saw him set the NFL record for most in a season.
