Steelers vs Cowboys Preview
After battling a hamstring injury all week, Dallas Cowboys star running back Ezekiel Elliott should be a true game-time decision. “We’ll take tomorrow and warm him up Sunday (pre-game) just to make sure that he’s full go,” Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy said Friday.
If he plays, Elliott will be going up against a Steelers defense ranked fifth in total defense and fifth against the run. Elliott said earlier this week that should he play, he was “not trying to do too much. Staying disciplined to my reads and landmarks. Just have a chop-wood mentality; just chip away,” he said.
The Steelers are off to their best start since the late 70s, and while head coach Mike Tomlin is thrilled with his team on both sides of the ball, he has also displayed a keen knack to out-coach each of his opponents this season. Perhaps it has something to do with his astute observational skills. When watching tape on the Cowboys, Tomlin sees a lot his team’s 2019 Ben Roethlisberger-free season in this year’s 2020 Dak Prescott-free Cowboys.
“As I watch the tape, I got a feeling for what’s transpiring there,” Tomlin said this week. “Initially, there’s probably a period of shock where you’re dealing with the reality that you don’t have your guy. And then you go about formulating the personality that’s going to allow you to develop a winning formula. And when I look at their game specifically against the Philadelphia Eagles last week, that’s what I see.
“I see a defense that got off the bus that was turnover driven, that was focused on getting the ball. Much like we were a year ago, when we were playing with Mason (Rudolph) and Duck (Devlin Hodges), we realized we had to gain a possession, we realized that that was the best way to support a young or an inexperienced quarterback.”
The Cowboys have lost three straight, and they’re desperately trying to avoid the bleeding — or to see what kind of talent they have on their roster. They’ll be sending Garrett Gilbert out for his first career start against one of the league’s most ferocious defenses. Gilbert has been in and out of the league since 2014, and the Cowboys signed him off the Browns’ practice squad earlier this season. It will be interesting to see how well he performs in his debut with TJ Watt staring him down all day.
