Cowboys are 1.5-point underdogs to the Steelers in Week 5

   

Dallas is an underdog this week.

The Dallas Cowboys got their win in Week 4 on Thursday night when they topped the New York Giants 20-15. That raised their record to an even 2-2 on the year. Their opponent in Week 5, the Pittsburgh Steelers, lost their first game of the year on Sunday, dropping to 3-1 after a defeat by the Indianapolis Colts.

The Cowboys will have to to go on the road to meet the Steelers, who have been riding a hot defense early in the year. They are using Justin Fields over Russel Wilson so far at quarterback, and the offense had its best day against the Colts, but came up short.

The Cowboys are likely to be without DeMarcus Lawrence and Micah Parsons when the two teams meet, putting a lot of pressure on the rest of the defense to try an compensate for their absences.

The game is on Sunday night, and the Cowboys are currently 1.5-point underdogs according to our partners at FanDuel.
