What to expect from the Dallas Cowboys vs. Pittsburgh Steelers game on Sunday Night Football
Playing at home with a 3-1 record so far this season, the Steelers are the favorites in this game, even though the margins might end up being narrow. Pittsburgh's three wins to start the season have been good enough to give them the lead in the AFC North so far, and they're doing it on the strength of a defense, led by T.J. Watt, that held opponents to a combined 26 points across those first three victories. Of course, they faltered in Week 4 with a 27-24 loss to the Colts, but that's all the more reason to expect a rebound this week, particularly since they're playing in Pittsburgh, where the Terrible Towel reigns supreme. It'll also be interesting to see if injured quarterback Russell Wilson (questionable for Week 5) makes a return of any kind this week, or if Justin Fields will stay under center for the whole game.

That said, the Cowboys are certainly not to be underestimated. They're coming off a much-needed win over the Giants that brought them to 2-2 on the season, the connection between quarterback Dak Prescott and wide receiver CeeDee Lamb seems to be strengthening, and momentum is building in Dallas after a rough start to the season. But while the win over the Giants was a key one, particularly in the NFC East, it was also costly. Both Micah Parson and DeMarcus Lawrence are currently listed as Doubtful on the injury report, which could leave the Cowboys defense without its two biggest weapons up front. Still, the defense has other talent, and the Cowboys offense is starting to come together a bit more, so don't be surprised if this one is close, or if Dallas comes away with the eventual win.
