Mike Jenkins' first trip to Giants Stadium last year had the best and worst moment of his rookie season.
The best was when he returned an interception of Eli Manning for a touchdown. Unfortunately that became a side note when he whiffed on a tackle of Derrick Ward and led to many questioning his toughness.
"I definitely used it during the off-season when I was training but not during the season," Jenkins said. "When I get to the game, I'm just playing the game. I don't want my mind to lingering on another thing."
Jenkins did not start in the first meeting with the Giants at Cowboys Stadium because it was Orlando Scandrick's time to start. New York tore through the secondary with Eli Manning throwing for 330 yards with Mario Manningham (150 yards) and Steve Smith (134 yards) each scoring a touchdown in the first meeting.
The Cowboys have not allowed a 100-yard receiver since.
"Let alone two dudes over 100 yards, we don't want one to have 100," Jenkins said. "We'll just go out there and press it down on them and see what the outcome is and bring our A game definitely."

This definitely is the game to shut down both the Giant run AND it's passing game.
