Positional Grades: Steelers Vs. Cowboys

We were waiting all day Sunday and into Monday morning for that? That’s a tough one.

Holding a late lead and needing the highly-paid defense to get a stop in the fourth quarter, the Pittsburgh Steelers weren’t able to do it in the end, giving up a touchdown pass from Dak Prescott to Jalen Tolbert on 4th and goal as the Dallas Cowboys took a 20-17 lead with 20 seconds left that would hold up for the final score.

Though the Steelers’ defense forced 3 turnovers and blocked a field goal, the offense wasn’t able to do enough consistently, and the defense didn’t get a stop when it mattered most, leading to the 20-17 loss to fall to 3-2 on the season.
