Cowboys vs. Steelers Preview
The Dallas Cowboys defeated the New York Giants on the previous Monday Night Football, 20-15. However, their victory came at a heavy price. LB Micah Parsons is doubtful for the game, and even though he appears to be one of the best defenders in the league, he won’t be 100%. DeMarcus Lawrence is already on IR, and this is a major blow for Dallas.

Prescott won’t have WR Brandin Cooks as his target, so a pale and very unstable run game will have to show up to help. Just to remind you, running backs Dowdle and Elliott have just 215 yards combined this year. Terrible.
The Steelers’ defense is maybe the best in the league. The team did lose to the Colts on the road last weekend, 27-24, but Mike Tomlin’s boys had a chance to win that one. However, knowing that Justin Fields wasn’t even supposed to be here and that he adapted pretty well to the new circumstances, this is an excellent record.
This is only the second game at home for Pittsburgh this year, with three being on the road, and that’s something just a few noticed. Do know that.
Cowboys vs. Steelers Head to Head
There were 33 games so far between these teams. Dallas has a slight edge, 17-16. three were in the NFL Super Bowl, the Super Bowl X, Super Bowl XIII, and the Super Bowl XXX. The Steelers won two of those events, Dallas one.
Cowboys vs. Steelers Prediction
Justin Fields will have a much easier job than expected because Dallas has multiple defenders injured and not fit 100%. Meanwhile, the Steelers’ defense will slow down Dak, which should be enough for the home team to win.
- Cowboys vs. Steelers Pick: Pittsburgh Steelers win
