The Dallas Cowboys absolutely decimated the New York Giants at Metlife Stadium last night on September 10. To be specific the final score was 40-0 as the Cowboys' defense made Daniel Jones and the offense look totally abysmal all night long. However, the despondent Giants' fans at least got to witness a spectacle before the massacre began. On one of the biggest stages, Queen Latifah put on a dazzling performance of the national anthem.
A true great in the hip-hop and R&B space, Latifah got some help from the nation's toughest individuals. The armed forces added to the amazing show with their gorgeous and in-sync background vocals. Pairing that with Latifah's deep and soulful voice was a match made in heaven. It was the perfect way to reintroduce Sunday Night Football back to America. During the broadcast, they showed some of the players and coaches, including the Giants' star running back Saquon Barkley. It seemed like he was in the process of tearing up during Latifah's rendition and we do not blame him.
