The N.Y. DAILY NEWS went with the header, "Commanders’ ownership change stacks NFC East leadership landscape against Giants." Dan Snyder’s absence "has immediately and dramatically reset the balance of power" in the NFC East. Eagles owner Jeffrey Lurie "oversees one of the smartest operations in professional sports" and has the team in its second Super Bowl in three years and third Super Bowl in eight years. Cowboys owner Jerry Jones "doesn’t strike confidence in his fan base," but his VP/Player Personnel Will McClay "knows talent," and Dallas has a 43-25 regular season record the past four years. The Giants have struggled on the field the past few years, but in recent years, the Giants "always had dysfunctional Washington sitting there, happy to get beaten once or twice a year while toiling in controversy and/or irrelevance." Now, though, with new owner Josh Harris "rescuing the Commanders," the Giants' Mara and Tisch families "face more pressure than ever to get their house in order." The question "is whether they have the capacity to do it."
