In the NFL there are several rivalries, especially when it comes to two teams playing in the same division, but the games between the Dallas Cowboys and the Pittsburgh Steelers are different. Few battles in the league raise as much passion as these two teams.
A battle that has been repeated three times in a Super Bowl will be played for the first time on a Sunday Night to give it even greater appeal between the two teams that are undoubtedly among the most popular in the world.
The game will be held at the home of the Steelers, the Acrisure Stadium, and will be a tough matchup for the Cowboys, who also have two very important absences on defense due to injury in Micah Parsons and DeMarcus Lawrence.
What worries the “Cowboys” the most, however, is the Steelers’ defense, which is currently one of the best in the entire league, and has been the one that has led the team to a 3-1 record to be at the top of the AFC North Division.
With T.J. Watt as their leader, the new “Steel Curtain” has allowed just 53 points in four games, 13.25 average per game, 261.3 yards allowed to opponents, and 11 quarterback catches.
On offense, the Steelers have the league’s 18th-ranked offense with 317.8 yards gained per game, are the 22nd-ranked passing offense (189.3 yards per game) and 10th-ranked on the ground (128.5).
While the Cowboys (2-2) offense has been far from what was expected and is 14th in the league with 330.8 yards gained per game, although their quarterback Dak Prescott has them as the fifth best offense through the air with 255.5 yards per game. However, they are last in ground offense in the entire NFL with just 75.3 yards per game.
