The Dallas Cowboys have won an NFL-best seven games in a row, boast the league’s leading rusher and third-rated passer and are tied for the best record in the league at 7-1.
The Steelers have lost three in a row, have slipped to .500 for the first time since they were 4-4 at the halfway point last season and are coming off a game in which their offense continued to tumble to new lows on the road.
Yet the Cowboys are a three-point underdog for Sunday’s game against the Steelers at Heinz Field.
Go figure.
“This group needs no endorsement from me,” Steelers coach Mike Tomlin said.
