Oddsmakers currently have the Steelers listed as 2-point favorites versus the Cowboys, while the game’s total is sitting at 50.
Pittsburgh’s potent offense was asleep through three quarters last week as it mustered just 69 yards before Roethlisberger woke up and tossed a touchdown pass to Antonio Brown and rushed for another. While electric Le’Veon Bell is a trusted option out of the backfield, Pittsburgh has struggled to find a consistency in the passing game – outside of Brown – with Martavis Bryant suspended for the season. Sammie Coates has followed a strong start with just four yards in his last three games and fellow wideouts Markus Wheaton (shoulder) and Darrius Heyward-Bey (foot) are nursing injuries. Eli Rogers recorded a team-leading 103 receiving yards – all in the fourth quarter – to show promise after his development had been slowed by both turf toe and a reported disciplinary decision in Week 7 (he was inactive).
In their last action, Pittsburgh was a 21-14 loser on the road against the Ravens. They failed to cover the -3-point spread as favorites, while the combined score (35) was profitable news for UNDER bettors.
Team record: 4-4 SU,4-4 ATS
Current Streak: lost 3 straight games.
Pittsburgh is 2-4 ATS in its last 6 games
Pittsburgh is 2-4 SU in its last 6 games
The total has gone UNDER in 6 of Pittsburgh’s last 7 games
Slot receiver Cole Beasley leads the team in catches (43) and receiving yards (499) and touchdowns, with his club-best fourth score in the last four games coming on Sunday. Fellow wideout Dez Bryant has caught 16 of 41 passes thrown his way, with only one for 19 yards against the battered Browns’ secondary last week. “We’re chasing something. It’s not a one-man show,” Bryant said of Dallas’ winning ways. Veteran tight end Jason Witten was the target of choice last week for Prescott, reeling in eight receptions for 134 yards and a touchdown.
Last time out for Dallas, they were a 35-10 winner as they battled the Browns on the road. The Cowboys covered in the match as a -7-point favorite, while 45 combined points moved the game UNDER for totals bettors.
Team record: 7-1 SU,7-0-1 ATS
Current Streak: won 7 straight games.
Dallas is 5-0 ATS in its last 5 games
