Cowboys vs. Steelers: Expert predictions for Sunday night’s football duel

Week 5 of the NFL season is well underway and we’ve already seen some great games. But fans have something to look forward to tonight when the Dallas Cowboys and Pittsburgh Steelers face off on Sunday Night Football.

Dallas enters this game with a 2-2 record on the season after picking up a big division win over the New York Giants last week. Pittsburgh comes into this game with a record of 3-1 and suffered a loss to the Indianapolis Colts.

These are two of the NFL’s more traditional teams, which gives this game some extra pizzazz. Both sides will try to make a point, but only one can prevail.

So who wins? The staff at Newsweek sport has They have made and given some expert predictions on how the game will play out.

Matt Levine: The Steelers come into the game after a poor game last week against the Colts. When they play at home, they want to send the message that they truly are one of the better teams in the AFC. Dallas has been dealing with some serious injuries, especially on the defensive side of the ball, and that could really hurt them. While the Cowboys’ offense may be better than Pittsburgh’s, it’s the home defense that will carry the day for the Steelers.

Prediction: Steelers 24, Cowboys 20

John Robinson: The Cowboys defense appeared to be one of the most vulnerable units in the NFL this season. With Justin Fields playing the best football of his career, the Steelers’ rushing attack will overwhelm the Cowboys’ defense en route to victory.

Ricardo Sandoval: The Steelers suffered their first loss of the season last week, but pulled it off in a strong comeback attempt. The Steelers have been one of the surprise teams in the NFL, and now the Cowboys are coming to spoil their hot start.

Prediction: Steelers 23, Cowboys 17

Jeremy Hanna: The Cowboys offense has struggled a bit lately, and it will struggle even more against one of the best defenses in the league. With Justin Fields gaining momentum, this will be an even bigger landslide.
