The Cowboys escaped Pittsburgh with a win - Mike McCarthy’s first career win in his hometown as a head coach - but it wasn’t pretty. They’ll surely take the win, though, as they get to head home for a game against the Lions. In a game like this, though, who were the best players? Let’s see what Pro Football Focus thinks.
Offense was great... until the red zone
Realistically, the Cowboys should’ve blown the Steelers out of the water in all three of the rivers there in Pittsburgh. The Cowboys nearly doubled the Steelers’ offensive output, totaling 445 yards of offense to Pittsburgh’s 226; they averaged nearly two more yards per play and had one fewer possession.
