Dallas Cowboys vs. Pittsburgh Steelers Week 10, 2016 FULL Game

about your business, he emphasized, I've been doing this for 13 years, I know how to deal with the second half of the season, look at me, follow me, Joe, okay, Aaron, thanks, well, here with this great scene at Heinz Field on a night 54 degrees. The weather is fantastic on November 13th, we are preparing for a big

game

for each team: the Dallas Cowboys will try to extend their eight-

game

winning streak and the Steelers will try to snap a three-game losing streak. Thanks, I'm glad. We're with us today on Fox as Whitehead will take a knee on the Dallas Cowboys' first drive and Dak Prescott will start at the 25-yard line and all eyes are on number four as they have been since the season began with the injury . to Tony Romo Troy with Romo knocking on the door to return and active not active for this game Dak Prescott has been sensational, yes, he is probably coming off his best game of the season last

week

in the victory over the Cleveland Browns who were on his tail heels. of his most shaky performance to date against the Philadelphia Eagles so this team is playing with a lot of confidence right now led by the rookie quarterback it's going to be Elliott who leads the NFL with his 891 yards, picks up six Robert Golden in the Stop and look at where the Cowboys are offensively and you realize that if it was DeMarco Murray a couple of years ago, now it's Ezekiel Elliott, this great offensive line that opens up huge holes for the Dallas running game, that's where it all starts and that was a great start to this. first down offense by Ezekiel Elliott thanks Prescott to the sideline pass is caught by Dez Bryant and Bryant out of bounds right at midfield a 19 yard completion to the 88. well there's always a clean pocket for Dak Prescott , you see he has There's really no one in his face and he's got one on one on the outside after the good run to start this game and just a perfectly thrown ball, good shoulder fit back for Dez Bryant, they put him in Vault in this early play from Come Away. action Prescott stays alive balls recovered by Pittsburgh knocked out by chicolo and the Steelers take it away early Shazier with a recovery, they are trying to bring in Jason Witten to block Shazier and he just can't get there, but he gives in Dak Prescott acknowledges that he's able to avoid that, but then he doesn't feel the pressure of Chicalo on his butt and the great effort of the Steelers and Chicalo in particular making a play on the ball.

The Steelers get a tank. Pittsburgh comes into this game tied for 18th. We're now even for the year, enough in that turnover battle. Shazier gets the recovery and now a good starting field position for Big Ben on the middle caught passes, that's tight end Jesse James, good for eight, they have Jesse James, who just made his 25th catch and welcome back new to number 89, Ladarius Green, who is active for the first time as a stealer, the former charger and his big free agent addition to this offense will see him at some point today and the third fumble for Dak Prescott wonders if that will lead to Steeler points first. dropped Pittsburgh to hole 26 Ben Roethlisberger is a two-time Super Bowl champion had a knee injury against Miami missed the New England game in the last two starts hasn't been good for number seven Delaney Lewis Le'Veon Bell in a catch- on the run with a first down inside the 15.

We have a new audience that just joined us and after a 19-yard completion, Dak Prescott kept the Play Alive avoided the sack there but couldn't avoid the fumble, Chicalo knocked him out and Shazier recovered. and this is the first possession for the Steelers inside the Red Zone. Bell cuts the field and makes his way to the seven. Good job along that offensive line. Right guard David de Castro circles the wide receivers on the outside blocking the corners and created a huge lane then for Le'Veon Bell plays here for this Pittsburgh offense really struggled last

week

and that loss to the Baltimore Ravens you see the last three games his points per game third down yardage percentage has been bad he fell on top of the screen pass was caught and immediately Wilcox makes the tackle on David Johnson, it depends on the place if it is a first down or not and they have declared it a first down and a goal for Pittsburgh and Mike Tomlin, who is now in his 10th season. stomping the wings for Pittsburgh good overall record and lethal at home just like Ben Roethlisberger 8-1 since the start of last year Bell right side Wilcox again a gain of a yard and a half and we'll see what the Steelers are capable of doing down here in here from the five yard line now second and goal, but hey, I like the job that offensive coordinator Todd Haley has done mixing things up, they go to the empty set, they give a good game to Le'Veon Bell and one thing they don't Don't worry as much as you do with Dak Prescott when Ben Roethlisberger goes to the empty cell, you're not anticipating the quarterback to draw second and score, and watch Le'Veon Bell, who split left on the bottom pass for Bell. a lot of contact without a flag and it's third and goal Brandon Carr in coverage yes, a lot of contact from Brandon Carr on Le'Veon Bell and these are some of the things that Bell can do and it could have been ruled as unreachable Ball, but Le'Veon Bell, As good as he is as a runner, he presents a dimension within the passing game as he has already had here at the beginning of this game, so this defense has to worry, he separates again, they like him to run part of the routes The ones where he may look a lot like a wide receiver are at the top of the screen with Wilcox safety in front of him.

Pass, touchdown, foreigner, run the slant and continue with the previous play. This time, they ran the slant and know they have a showdown. to his advantage with JJ Wilcox, the safety who is in the lineup due to Barry Church's injury, one on one, and that's a good catch running a ball back and away, and he's still able to drag it, that shows some of the skills he has as a good receiver the Steelers are going to go for two Mike Tomlin likes to go for two this group that has Ladarius Green in front and the offensive formation for the first time the next one is incomplete for him and there are six nothing Byron Jones in coverage and that 6-6 240 pound frame couldn't get up and down well.

Darius Green, they brought him up like you said a few moments ago and this is where they thought they could use him. It was down here. in the Red Zone he is a great target, let's see if he can make a play. This is what set everything up. Prescott didn't feel the pressure from Chicalo and the Cowboys turned it around and gave the Steelers a short field and they took advantage. It was an eight plays after the turnover five touches by Le'Veon Bell and it was Bell who got his first touchdown catch of the year showing good hands when he's healthy, first of all he missed a bunch of games two suspensions one knee injury, so he missed a lot of time, but when he's healthy they can split him up like the Rams used to do with Marshall Faulk, like the Bills used to do with Thurman Thomas.

I mean, it's a rare skill set that he brings to this. offense for Pittsburgh, yes, and he has the same skills that Ezekiel Elliott has for the Cowboys, only he's proven it over a longer period of time and you know they're three running backs and they can catch the ball that the Cowboys haven't used. Elliott's skills like what the Steelers have to this point with Bell, but he's a dynamic player and he can run all the routes from that wide receiver position and he was terrible, obviously he showed up on that opening Steelers possession, it's his first touchdown since October 12 of last year and the kickoff goes out of bounds, that's not a great start for an out of bounds free throw from the number nine team.

They had a tough outing last week on Special Teams and with the touchdown and then kicking one out of bounds, that is. It's not good for this defense, it has to face this offense now starting at Stanley Smith's 40-yard line and if you look at these two quarterbacks, it's Dak Prescott comparing his first eight games to what Ben Roethlisberger did in 2004. And that It wasn't just a good individual start for Ben Roethlisberger, he led his team to a Super Bowl game as a rookie, here's Elliott driving those legs and Ezekiel Elliott gets three chicks in the Stop and this is what they were talking about with the special teams last week. brutal missed side kick that we may or may not address later.

I'm sure Chris Boswell hoped we would have kept the block, a strong return for a touchdown. The right side is going to rebound and Ezekiel Elliott, that's the beauty of what he can do. He's a 225-pound bat that can get to the rim and has a first down. Robert Golden shows up and what happens is Ezekiel Elliott is very quick to get to the edge, you think you have the angle on him and you have him locked in where he has to take it inside and I think he surprised his defense, as you see every week, that the angles they take allow Elliot to get on the edge because they don't anticipate him with the speed that he has play action Prescott on the bench has Brian on his second reception and another first down people are talking about the combination of Dak and Dez week one, one reception, eight yards, week two, seven receptions for 102. he got hurt, week three he missed three games, a 100-yard game, including the tying touchdown at home against Philadelphia, and then last week a reception for 19 yards, he has two in this game, look, this is just lining them up. and see if you can stop him so far, teams in

2016

can't do it well and I give some credit to Scott Lenahan for the way he designed this running game that time they ran with Whitehead who will sometimes hand him the ball. that Jet Sweep and help keep the defense from collapsing, then in Ezekiel Elliott they will also hack Prescott to keep those guys honest on the outside so they force you to defend the entire field, one of a couple that moved earlier this fall , 65th offense 5 -yard penalty, so on second down they also got guard movement right next to Tyron, yeah, Ronald Leary and he was a big ask.

Well, he left last week's game with a concussion. There was some uncertainty about whether he would be available or not, of course. He had been a starter, then left his job to Lyle Collins, who was injured. He got a chance to play again and I honestly think this offensive line got better with him back in the lineup and the way they've been able to do it. run the ball, let's go Doug Wii U h second to nine, they hand it off and there's Elliott about a yard and a half away from a first down while Sean Davis, the rookie safety, the second-round pick from Maryland was at the stop, well , we spoke to Mike Tomlin the other day and the first thing he said is that we have to stay in our spaces, that they can't create running lanes for Ezekiel Elliott between the tackles and that time they didn't stay within their spaces there was a big hole. along that left side right behind Ronald Leary Elliott at the top of the screen and now moving toward the backfield.

Troy you had it with Emmett Smith, but even more so for a rookie quarterback like Dak Prescott to be able to just turn around and hand it to him. Fellow rookie Elliott, what a gift for a young man adjusting to this level, well there's no doubt the running game is a rookie quarterback's best friend and you mentioned the job Ben Roethlisberger did as a rookie as well. he had it at the time with Jerome Bettis and that's why he was able to regain some of the success he had and Dez is not on the same page second and ten.

I just think the element that Prescott gives you knows there's an argument that they don't have that many. great plays in the passing game with Prescott like they did with Romo and yes that's true, but he introduces an element at running back that really forces the defense to be honest and you can't overload too much because he'll keep the ball and run. in limits and has done so throughout the season in some big overseas games, now third and 10th, as the Cowboys are within field goal range for bayley, they have loftier ambitions than settling for three, They worked outside for Jason Whitton and he had a chance. and coverage.

I'm a little surprised Prescott didn't work out his way because you see he's one-on-one with Lawrence Timmons and Cole Beasley. I don't know, no one has been able to cover it this year. Dunbar out of the backfield on The pass in motion is caught by Williams and Williams inside the 20 before a first down when he gets five and the field goal drive goes in for the Cowboys for those of you who just joined us, we already had a turnover Dak Prescott with a fumble forced by the chick linebacker recovered by Shazier and the Steelers went down and scored a touchdown on the throw to Le'Veon Bell it was for two they didn't understand it the Cowboys just moved down the field and They will attempt a 37-yard pass to cut the lead in half and Bailey no one better in the NFL is a 6-3 game inthis interconference battle Cowboys Steelers on Fox today's game is sponsored by Southwest yes still open with nothing to hide that's foreign transparency straight their longest streak since a seven-game winning streak in 2007.

Last time they won eight in a season It was in 1977, when they won the Super Bowl Super Bowl 12. Dorsett is the 6-3 game and we look back on the Chicalo Strip, Le'Veon Bell's touchdown afterward. a Bailey field goal is a three-point game in Pittsburgh the game is sponsored by Bud Light make the right decision drink responsibly in the 50 days in Pittsburgh as the Steelers have it for the second time quick shot Brown worst amount a gain of five you see Antonio Brown and he has led the league in receptions in each of the last two seasons, with several thousand yards and when he came, I started moving him in a lot of different positions and I know Todd Haley feels that defenses have caught up to him and At least they've learned how to defend him from every position he lined up last week, just two catches in three. quarters ended with seven, but try to get him involved as much as possible, especially early in these games, this is against Dallas, it's a free play and a big one for Rogers Skandrick crossed too early, they threw the flag and big Ben had a free .

He played and found Rogers well, they took Skandrick off the edge, so to cover Eli Rogers they have to bring Byron Jones up at least if he goes out of the first and down positions. Roethlisberger, who takes a hit on the hand as he continues. on that, but because Scandrick and Byron Jones have to work over the top to cover Eli Rogers, who runs an excellent route from that position, they really like that young player and make a nice profit and we'll be watching. how Roethlisberger feels slapping his hand after letting that pass go, shaking it off before the next play after a 22-yard pass to Eli Rogers coming off his first 100-yard game, tight end James to the 31. 17 yards tackled for Hitchens, come on.

Roethlisberger felt that some of the things in the middle of the field were where they could take advantage of this Cowboys defense and Jesse James is a young man that they have a lot of confidence in, he is finding his way, but he makes a good play with the ball torn to the ground by Demarcus Lawrence I think one good thing for the Steelers Joe is you know all week they say someone has to make a play besides Antonio Brown in the passing game and you know we I've seen a couple of guys make that, another play free and the throw to the end zone incomplete.

Kobe Hamilton was the target, but Ben took the Cowboys offside, well you knew that with a veteran quarterback as soon as he knew he had the yellow flag. He was going to make a throw, he had a free play and the defense number 75 in neutral was going to execute the five-yard penalty, the second attempt will be repeated, that is against the young defensive lineman Ryan Davis, he will reach the second and four minutes, the little lady Louisa second and four bells first down and more at nine maybe in Bell you will see him here in the patience he shows before cutting him, he goes into the hole, he is not there, then he sees him right behind Castro and he he takes it and shows off his explosion and quickness, this guy is a great player and he's not just a strictly downhill guy, he's physical enough to get to the edges but once he sees a hole he's as fast as anyone on the league and get over it, 16-yard run first and goal hesitating, picking his way to the one and there was nothing there at the beginning of that play, that's All Le'Veon Bell, a lot of patience and a lot of quickness, and it's a little bit like Barry.

Sanders is there and they rush, they don't meet here on second down Jones and that brings up a third down and goal, so a great play as Bell was blocked by young safety Byron Jones loss of two incredible two good low passes from Roethlisberger caught for the Eli Rogers touchdown and let's make sure this ball wasn't caught properly, it's close, doesn't it look like a bunt? but it seemed like he was in control too. This is not a great pitch from Roethlisberger, but from Jeff Heath, who drives it. From the inside out, I think he's the one who maybe scared Ben and didn't want to lead him and make the catch easier for him, but Eli Rogers, that's going to be the closest thing these officials decide.

Taking a look, I couldn't. I can't say the ball really moved much when it hit the ground. That last look it seemed like the ball had moved just a little. I'm with you on first look, it looked like a good catch, but remember it was a third and goal and they have confirmed the score and again the Steelers are going to go for two, they went for two the first time now the board would tell them to go for two but fourth the first time. I agree with this one too. Madam sir, the square was looking for Brown and now back in the end zone there is no Jesse James, the target and Antonio Brown, was the initial look.

It's a 12-3 game in the USA Game of the Week here in Pittsburgh, sponsored by Nissan Innovation, which is exciting. Verizon is joining a better network because the best matters and with Burger King you now get three large pancakes for only 89 cents only at Burger King. Well, Ben Roethlisberger started red hot, eight for nine, two touchdowns, four for four on that last drive and completed a ball. to Eli Rogers for the score, it's a nine-point game and the drive for Dallas and Dak will start at the 25 down 12-3 a little bit Ben and now the fans at Three Rivers the fans at Heinz Field and down by nine starting at the 25 here's Dallas and there's Tyron Smith, 77th starting offense, five yard penalty still on first down, that's two false starts against the Cowboys, yeah, a little shaky, between here on the road and a hostile environment with this crowd from Pittsburgh and this is not a defense you want to start first and 15. is the fourth pre-snap penalty imposed on Dallas two on offense two on defense first and 15. 94.

Monday who's the microphone 50 Doug 50. The penalty flag waves with Zach Martin rolling on the ground and we'll get the call from Blakeman with the 70th drive. a 10 yard lead, so first down and it's against Zach Martin. Initially it looked like Zach Martin did a great job there at right guard and Brian Shazier comes in with a rushing load and it looked like he picked it up cleanly and there was enough right there. I didn't really see as much grip as Shazier trying to get off the block and make a play, but the Steelers are gearing up for the run, a lot of one-on-one looks on the outside in those first Downs, of course, right now with the first of 25 The Steelers are going to play an underneath coverage pass for Beasley and that's the first one. make up some yardage as we approach half a minute left in the first quarter and Artie burns the first-round rookie pick out of Miami is down in his second NFL start after his first interception in Baltimore and that stops the clock with 33 seconds left in the first quarter, injury for the rookie and look at the burns on the bench as the Cowboys have second and 18.

Setting a screen for Elliott blocking Play Elliott's huge feel territory by the bench and for the touchdown, no. 83 yard flags for the rookie combination of Prescott and Elliott, well they ran that Jet Sweep look again with the lucky Whitehead around the left end and then came out of that with the screen to Ezekiel Elliott, you can see these offensive linemen so big and massive. how well they run Travis Frederick he's in front the kick on the edge and then once Ezekiel Elliott goes out to the corner that he just can't catch this guy he's a great speedster great play second and 18 they give up not only the first down, but also six points, former track star as a high scorer and showed his speed as a 225-pound running back and that is the first touchdown reception for number 21 and the Cowboys have their game of the entire season at 83 yards, Well, I mean, you talked.

I talked about it before in terms of a running game for a rookie quarterback. I mean, how about when you come out backed up on second-and-18 and you're able to throw a screen pass to Ezekiel Elliott and he goes the distance you mentioned a moment ago? and I'll say it again Scott Linehan is one of the most overlooked assistant coaches in the entire NFL. Linehan has done a very good job with Romo a couple of years ago and now he is molding these two rookies into what they have become. with Prescott at quarterback and obviously Elliott and running back and he's been creative, everyone in the world knows that Ellie is going to get the ball, but they still have to find an answer for when 21 gets his hands on it.

Yes, I think Linehan. He's done a good job, obviously Prescott is a different type of quarterback than Romo, but they've still included some things that he was comfortable doing there at Mississippi State some of the run plays some of the read options Some of the extended sets have married it to their own running game and it's obviously been very effective. He has been a coordinator in Minnesota, head coach in St. Louis, coordinator in Detroit and now in charge of the offense in Dallas. There were seven seconds left in the first quarter. In what has been an eventful event, tomorrow night National Geographic invites you to go to Mars, join humanity's greatest adventure and discover how we made Mars our home.

The new Mars series premieres tomorrow night only on National Geographic for an 83-yard landing. pass the stats of the day for Dak Prescott I saw the eyes of Sean Lee, who grew up about 20 minutes away, played on this field while in high school, the quick throw went out, passed the complete savior, Grimble, with three seconds remaining, did not ensure the incomplete catch, yes. This is one of those things that these officials are looking at when there's a bang bang like that, they're going to rule that it's incomplete. A good decision. Burger, we've seen him disperse these

cowboys

or fight back and they're shorthand. some injuries to Mo Claiborne and then of course Barry Church and trying to take advantage of some of those matchups and they've been able to do that here in this first half, the foreigner somehow gets the ball away from Brandon Carr, it's going to be a third down.

When we return for the Steelers on the road, how will youngsters Dak and Elliott respond well? Now they have made it a two-point game. What a catch by Brown for the second quarter, we started the second quarter on third down and a turkey threw a bell running well played by Dallas balls out and out of bounds where he will stay with Pittsburgh, but it's the fourth down, the first guy there it was Skandrick, it was a great play by Orlando Scandrick at third and a short play through the blocker there. he's here he feels a little fumble that wasn't recovered before going out of bounds, so it's a Pittsburgh ball at the out of bounds spot, it goes up on fourth down, okay, it's coming right under you , hits the first jumper in baseball, goes right under Jesse James and makes a play and boy, the Cowboys almost give the ball to their offense with a shortstop a golden opportunity by Byron Jones just unable to secure it's big play Scandal not a good punt takes a rebound lucky Whitehead on the return makes a man miss and then takes it to the 40.

Let's go back to that second Antonio Brown sack and look at the end, first of all, a great sack while he was holding on, he fell clumsily, the mask was removed and it was not sung and then Brown. he was making his team control the guy who came into this game with at least 75 more receptions than anyone else in the NFL over the last three and a half years. Brandon Carr got away with that mask. I remember a time when one hundred catches in a season there were a lot of catches and just last year Tony O'Brien had 136.

In Phoenix, first and down, Dallas at the 40. When Alfred Morris comes in and gets it, the running back from Pro Bowl previously with Washington takes him for two and Pittsburgh Injuries to talk to Aaron, let's talk about the first cornerback Artie Burns, who tried several knee pads and is still trying to run and loosen that knee, also Shimarco Thomas, strong safety that was intended to be purchased to the training staff and also to the boys, Heyward. He was on the sidelines for a moment, they checked his shoulder and he kept telling the training staff that he was fine, he was fine and he ran back, we need him.

Prescott is protected and here is Bryant's flag on the play and Bryant with a catch at the 42. William Gay is trying to point out that the penalties on Dez Bryant there was a little bit of contact, it was hard to tell exactly Dez Bryant's good route starts to the post and comes back, I think they're going to Get Dez with that right arm, they extended it before the pass, illegal contact with the defense number 22. Yards gained in penalty decline are enough for a first down, it seemed like that decision could go either way in the end, the completion represents 16 yards for Bryant.

Take another look and see what exactly happened. I saw Dez Bryant's right arm come out at the top of that route. I know last week and really throughout the season, when Brian played, he felt like there was noreceived a lot. the calls he deserves, I don't know if he got away with one there or not, flags on the play when Alfred Morris takes it to the 40. This happened, the penalty along the line of scrimmage just before the snap and it's offside against Pittsburgh. Number 92 in the neutral zone with the center, the five-yard penalty still on first down, that's Cam Hayward, who missed a couple of games with a hamstring injury, let's go back to that Dez Bryant reception, let's take another look at the top of the screen and okay, I don't know, I didn't see much of William Gay there.

I think Dez Bryant got away with a push of his own first down and five and Morris will pick up a pair on the left side when the flag comes. down at the end sacred offense number 68 10 yard penalty we play the first down they get Doug Free the right tackle with a grab keeps running Jeff Swaim the backup tight end came out of that last play with his shoulders hanging crouch free right tackle and Joe, yeah, I'd say it's beyond a hole, four penalties now on the Cowboys offensive line, Prescott under Warren, immediately made by Jarvis Jones, a game of six, one of the few times you see Prescott get pressure on the face, I think.

You know, one of the things that's really been good for him, besides having Ezekiel Elliott, is that the offensive line has really protected him in the middle and hasn't given up a lot of pressure and allowed him to throw with a pretty clean look, so Dak and Elliott just hit Ezekiel Elliott with the longest touchdown reception by a Cowboys running back since the great Herschel Walker, former teammate of Troy Aikman, here's Alfred Morris Jones on the third down stop . while Morris picks up six, what a nice luxury the Cowboys have when they can bring in their backup running back and a guy with the credentials of Alfred Morris, who of course was a starter as a rookie when he was drafted by the Washington Redskins and last week they were able to use him a little more in the way they won against Cleveland.

He had the most work he's had all season. This could be bordering on two-down territory for Dallas, which is down two-three. Beasley didn't drop any flag passes and now it's a long field goal attempt and that's Jason Garrett's immediate decision or go for it on fourth and three and Bailey will come in and try for the field goal, which will be a try. 53 yards. well within range of Dan Bailey and missed opportunity Cole Beasley, who had the opportunity, is just trying to avoid the tackler and get the first down, but he didn't secure the catch first.

This for the leader, now is good. 24 of 32 for Dan. 50 and Beyond's Bailey on the Cowboys has his first lead of the night. Today's game is sponsored by Chevrolet, more than any other brand at the

JD Power Reliability Awards, by Papa John's, the Official Pizza Sponsor of the NFL, and by Microsoft Surface, the Official Tablet of the NFL. NFL two organizations that have met three times in the past Super Bowls: Super Bowl 10, 13 and 30. The Steelers won the first two of their four in the 70s and Super Bowl 30 went the way of the Cowboys, Larry Brown, the MVP with his two interceptions and not trailing by a point, the Steelers, who have already gone for a two-point conversion twice, will start at their 25.

It's really something that Mike Tomlin did more of last year. The Steelers led the NFL with eight successful two-point conversions and 11 both attempts. The numbers were high across the NFL, all 11 were passes by the way last year, just two of two this year, but obviously wanting to make a statement here early, Tomlin did it, yes, when they backed up the extra point attempt point , after that, he told us. At the beginning of the season he was going to do it too often, he did it a year ago, not so much, this year it hasn't worked for him in this game for two, here's Brown, knee dropped, looks like he's inches away from a first down.

Antonio, that's just another way to get there, putting the ball in Antonio Brown's hands and you know, his version of the wide receiver screen, a tremendously good player, a guy who draws a lot of attention wherever he is, to Brown on the first try, it didn't happen. Until last week when Jason Garrett met with Antonio Brown, the Steelers really did it offensively, so they went into that meeting leisurely, hurry up in that loss against the Baltimore Ravens, they were a little close to the vest early with Big Ben and his first opening. off the knee surgery and you know they're going to do pretty much a no-huddle here, it's more of a controlled version, but I really thought we'd talk more about the alert, hurry up, hey, alert at the beginning of this game after the success. which they had last week, it's a first try as he gets 11.

It's really quite incredible when you see him run, there are guys who try to run that style, but it's difficult. I mentioned Barry Sanders before, you know the jump cut there and usually when you start choking him in the hole, you get caught and it's hard to gain yards, but he's so explosive and fast that he can do it, he shows great patience and still That's how he gets important games. Offensive coordinator Todd Haley calls him a pick-up pick. that line picks where it wants to go, it's been awesome, it shows Ben the ball comes out and that's Ben Roethlisberger getting hit and a flag goes in, yeah Cedric Thornton led the hit on Roethlisberger, that's when they threw the flag, we'll see who gets the penalty and Ben's back is turned there is no one tougher in the NFL number seven Browning intentional on the play because the quarterback was out of the pocket we have a personal foul for roughing the passer Defense number 56 a 15 yard penalty automatic first down gets Justin Durant, it was Thornton from behind that was a clean hit and then linebacker Durant's arm came up and hit Roethlisberger in the helmet right there, yeah, I don't know, I agree with that call, right?

You know? he's out of the pocket and has been a runner, but I think you'd have to be in a quarterback and passing position to then get quarterback protection, but that's a costly penalty for the Cowboys. Pereira joins us from Los Angeles Mike, what did you do? Look back at that decision. I think you must have roughed up the passer because even if you try to tackle the ball, you will get hit in the helmet with your forearm, as the rule says if the quarterback is defenseless when it comes to hits to the head and takes a direct shoulder. to the mask.

I think it is a foul that should be punished. It's the tough part for any defense facing Ben Roethlisberger, who is so difficult to take down. he kept that Play Alive twice. The 15 yard penalty is added at the end when Landry Jones takes over for just one play and Roethlisberger is coming back and you hear the reaction they had looking at Roethlisberger and that's why you had to come out. Well, and a moment ago you said that Joe is as tough as they come and when he came back he showed it way before this year too, but when he came back 20 days after having knee surgery last week, I mean, he showed everyone that if there is any chance that he can play, he is going to do it and no one is surprised, no one is surprised that he comes out again, now we are going second and ten and it seemed that someone on the offensive line Jones made a false start, offensive number 56.

Five yard penalty still second down Aaron Andrews, you spent some time with Ben before the game this weekend, what did you learn from number seven? Yes, they made the decision. He had no idea what to expect from his knee. He said you know practice is one thing, but then when you're there. In real life, getting hit while trying to fight, he said he didn't feel very good when he was running, but he said adrenaline is a beautiful thing, guys, yeah, he's doing his typical act there, he doesn't go down easily, he slide, break, tackle and look downfield and now the Steelers are going to receive the invasion from five yards back.

Defense number 97, it's a five-yard penalty still on second down. I'm Terrell McLean, I've seen Roethlisberger here at home, he's been able to work on the play count and the Cowboys now. several times and it was interesting, you know, according to Aaron's report, that Roethlisberger has only scrambled or only held the ball seven times this year and, surprisingly, three of those runs came last week after his return from the snap from the knee surgery lady to Brown. a quick tackle by young cornerback Anthony Brown and the rookie who isn't playing like a 6th round pick out of Purdue makes the stop after a game of one, yeah that's what you have to do too when you see that screen to the wide receiver.

He has to move forward before he can catch the ball and have some space between you and Anthony Brown. He's had a great rookie year. A guy drafted like you said in the sixth round. I'm not expected to play as much as him, but Orlando. Scandrick was coming off knee surgery, had some hamstring issues and Anthony Brown came into play heavily on a third down and nine Cowboys came out of the Blitz and Roethlisberger finds his man's favorite target, Antonio Brown, for a first attempt at the 25. Well, Antonio Brown, they're playing man coverage with a safety providing help, so there will be a tailgating technique in the corner, but still, with Roethlisberger able to buy time by moving into the pocket, Anthony Brown was in coverage and just one good move after the veteran receiver creating some separation thanks is the Dallas defense dealing with Antonio Brown the six for six the targets and catches without Barry Church with a broken forearm without Morris Claiborne with the groin injury from the half incomplete pass and that's the new tight end with Darius Green, half of the condo.

Ladarius Green. Now a couple of times here they tried to pass him the ball on the two-point conversion and that's where they wanted to use him because of his size, he's a big target. and I felt like maybe I could work him through the middle and I think that ball caught him by surprise, I was on him in a hurry. Haley said it's been impressive how fresh the offensive green is after coming off the physically unable to perform list. with ankle surgery, ankle injury, come in here, Bell, well played and that's Sean Lee, the linebacker who grew up a die-hard Steelers fan, he's not my leader and the Dallas Cowboys' number 50 was a young man who lived and died with the Steelers.

Fortunately, there is a thrister. I know he had a Jerome Bettis jersey during his high school years when he was the number six running back. Bobby Brister, he didn't say anything about having Brister's jersey, that's him now in the top spot. Claire lost on this field to Central Catholic. Back at 0-3 here's tight end Wilcox makes the hit as Xavier Grimble gets five and that will set up a fourth down, well that's a good stop by this Cowboys defense, they gave up some yards and now they're going to give up . they made a field goal attempt, but it's been a defense that's really been kind of a curve ball, but they don't break down, they don't give up a lot of big plays and they were forced there with a third and long and they make a key stop.

David Johnson entered the formation late. 39-yard attempt for foreign Chris Boswell to put the Steelers back on top. Good first half and, at times, another painful half of football for number seven, who also has his Steelers up, there is the series, 10 plays, 54 yards and there are almost six and a half minutes left on the clock and that is a of the keys to try to beat the Dallas Cowboys. Hold the ball. Keep the boys' offense off the field for two. The series will begin in the 25th. Sir, okay, David Irving. was so close to that Boswell try it's a good thing the Steelers are up too today's game on Fox is sponsored by Lowe's it's been a while since we saw Dak Prescott and Ezekiel Elliott the last time we saw him on a touchdown from 83 yards when Elliott was on the field on a Morris drive and now a catch and slide by Cole Beasley as Bay, well, if you look at this first half, what developed on the Pittsburgh Steelers is controlling time of possession, something Of course, the Cowboys' turnover, but this is an offense that leads the league in time of possession for 33 minutes, so like you said, the Steelers offensively being able to drive the ball, Yes, they were stopped and had to settle for the field goal. but they've kept this Cowboys offense on the sidelines and allowed their own defense to rest Elliott lowers his head and hits a wall for no gain Tuesday night, college basketball action returns to FS1 with a major Big Ten showdown in the gavit opening game begins and Maryland faces Georgetown and Nigel Hayes in Wisconsin clash with Maurice Watson Jr and Creighton the excitement begins on Tuesday 6 30 East in that Fest one third and two diamonds downfield for Bryant incomplete and in third and two Dak Prescott was for a big part, well they couldn't connect, yeah the Steelers ran fiveand they're one-on-one every way, so they've got Dez Bryant, who's in the slot, and they've got a good shot at him. general coverage on William Gay and they're trying to throw him on that back shoulder and he just misses it too much.

I also had a chance if he decided to quit and you have a chance to hit the home run. first

cowboys

three and here is a beautiful punt that takes Brown out of bounds, they will mark it at the 18. 49 yard punt with no return The Steelers have it and a two-point lead that is a super crystalline moon in the sky that they play here in Pittsburgh the USA game of the week and a good two point game with a low center and there is a reason the center under this bell is off limits we haven't talked about Marquis Pouncey and his recovery skills a right Dislocated thumb had surgery at the start of the week and has stitches on his right hand and is still back days later to face Dallas.

He was pretty incredible there with a snapping hand and told Todd Haley earlier in the week, you know you can count on me. be ready and it's pretty impressive, I mean, he's the real deal and he's a great player and a great leader for this offense. Bell got a yard second and nine passes caught Rogers on first down covered by skandrick Pittsburgh Steelers oh nice route by Eli Rogers as he puts the move and takes the middle and Scandrick can make the tackle after the catch but off Antonio Brown, Eli Rogers is really the only wide receiver to make a dent here in this ballgame, but he's made a couple of good plays and broke his foot last year.

I was on IR, they like someone who can take a little bit of the load off Antonio Brown. Here's Bell out of the backfield, plenty of space and a first down for Le'Veon Bell and we're at the Steelers two-minute warning with a first down and on the move as they lead by two follow your favorite all season your team favorite just go to itunes.com NFL Steelers get to the line with a first down two minutes left and a two-point play fell in the slot such a weapon when you're able to deploy the defensive Cowboys, you know, help Antonio Brown to give some of those coverage looks and be able to work with Le'Veon Bell and now Eli Rogers in the middle, good matchups for the Steelers with Brown for the 40. really good job by Antonio Brown just recognizing The Zone and giving his quarterback a good place to go with the ball, he just puts it right in the hole and Roethlisberger puts it right in for the incomplete home run into the end zone. for Sammy coats no flag Anthony Brown was down there defending well, the coach takes the inside throw and then Roethlisberger tries to take it back out there's the hand on the shoulder, it was enough contact with the right arm.

I think the Cowboys and Anthony Brown got away. with one and Roethlisberger would agree Leon McFadden comes in for Dallas Bell at the spot again second and ten a little punk thing and this one was almost picked by Brandon Carr. I don't think Antonio Brown expected Roethlisberger to throw it because Brandon Carr was up there. field, he never bit on the move and it was on his shoulder up the field and when Brown came off the ball, you see Ben recognize that Brown wasn't going

full

speed, he thought maybe he would have a chance and catch Carr, but it's the lack of communication between Brown and Roethlisberger, the first time this happened.

Roethlisberger targeted Antonio Brown eight times, seven receptions, third and 10. Stay like that, yeah, four men, Rush, no rocks, Burger protection breaks up the caught pass. Bell has a long way to go and is not going to move forward. We're going to go up fourth down and we'll have a timeout now taken by Dallas, the first with 52 seconds left, well there was plenty of time at least to get the ball out for Roethlisberger, but there was just nowhere to go with the ball and like held it, then the Cowboys were finally able to get home, so the Cowboys have yet to have a sack in this game, but at various times they have gotten a little bit of pressure, but for the most part, Roethlisberger has had time, but give. that defensive secondary gets some credit by making a stop on Third and now Cole Beasley is back for Dallas who is on fourth down and Jordan Barry came out to punt and overlook the deep and dragged at the 16 by Beasley with 45 seconds left in the first half of Dallas a chance to make some noise with two timeouts, but my whole life I've grown up and been fascinated by the military, whether it be infantry units to tanks Jets.

I have always been very intrigued, honoring, admiring and thinking about service members for what they do. Alejandro Villanueva, 28, has served his country during three tours of duty in Afghanistan. He graduated from the US Military Academy at West Point. An Army captain served as an Army Ranger and received the Bronze Star for Valor for rescuing wounded soldiers while in custody. enemy fire starting at left tackle for Ben Roethlisberger and on this Veterans Day weekend, a word of advice and a heartfelt thank you to people like Alejandro Villanueva and those in the military for what they do every day while Prescott is protected.

Beasley couldn't catch it and William Gay took it out of his hands, that's a couple of times now that Beasley had some opportunities and just couldn't keep control of the ball. William Gay, of course, makes a good move here by releasing it, but I think. Right now we're seeing what the Cowboys think of Dak Prescott and the development of him here in his rookie year. He's been backed up at the 16-yard line against the visiting Pittsburgh Steelers and no, they're good, they have twice as many coaches. with a young guy like this I would play a little more conservatively, they go out and throw it on first down.

Whitton has yet to have a catch. Prescott to the right of him and this is behind Dunbar now it's third and ten. That's third and ten. and now we'll see what Jason Garrett and Scott Linehan decide to do and the Pittsburgh Steelers have three timeouts, they'll have a chance to get the ball back, they make a key stop here and they have time left on the clock to come out with some points are strange, throw a punt is okay, sometimes you have the mentality of being a young man on the third ten and you want to try to drive the ball 10 yards to pick up the first one, keep the drive going and it's a defense like this, you better be careful.

Blitz from the edge Prescott steps up and breaks Beasley with Cockrell a right hand to knock down that pass on fourth down oh that's a good stop for the Cowboys to come up with three consecutive passes the clock stops good play by Cockrell I see what Prescott Prescott saw Cockrell carrying the receiver on the outside of the field, he comes out of it, makes a great play on the ball and we'll see if the Steelers can take advantage of the round waiting for Jones' punt. Punt and brown with a fair reception, they will score it in the 36th and this is what comes at halftime.

Kurt arrives at Visa's halftime. The Minnesota Vikings disappoint with their fourth consecutive loss. The Eagles defense dominates as they outscore the Falcons. and Tennessee upsets Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers, we have all that and more, so I'll meet you here with Lisa at halftime. We expect that now, with 20 seconds left, the three timeouts, we'll see how the Steelers want. start with Roethlisberger in the shotgun, yeah, I know how they're going to play with Roethlisberger 20 seconds, you know, three timeouts, a lot of time looking to throw fast, instead find space for Bell to run and get out of bounds. a first down and the Steelers are in business at their own 49.

Nice one-on-one work by Le'Veon Bell once he catches the ball, he can make someone miss, hits, you know, to get everything he can and then leave. of the limits he didn't necessarily have to because of the timeouts, but he didn't want to be running, dancing and burning too much time off that clock. Catch and 13 yard run, hurry up, yeah, do you have money?, yeah. Delaney is hot. with the first down and a timeout left, Ladarius Green made the catch with Byron Jones on him with eight seconds left in the half, some of the game's opening starters and starters Mariota and DeMarco Murray simply destroyed the Green Bay Packers, the Eagles with a big win over the Atlanta Falcons and the Chiefs in a stunner over Carolina.

Would you see the highlight that the Chiefs have won five in a row by getting their top quarterback, Smith, back and now a second down and an eight-second down? This has to be something. fast, yes, he has to get out fast, they can, they can work in the middle of the field, but Roethlisberger can't hold the ball for long and if someone catches him and has room to run, they should know they have him. They only have eight seconds, they will have to get on the ground and call timeouts and now the ball comes out, the Eli Rogers flag is thrown with the catch, the ball came out when it came down and there is a lot to see here, skandrick in coverage with two seconds left , they call it a sack here is the decision before holding the pass Defense number 32 The yards gained rejected by Kelly are enough for a first down, well, let's look now, let's see that for me he goes to the ground as part of the sack. and it's a big deal because if this is called an incompletion it's just a five yard penalty, well it should be an incomplete pass.

There are a lot of Cowboys fans watching this knowing what happened a couple years ago in Green Bay. Wait for Skandrick but there are two seconds left if this is just a five yard penalty instead of a completion play 23 yards as it is then it would become a field goal about 55 yards for Boswell but it's in the air. goes down going to the ground comes out I mean, we've been told it's incomplete well, it seems pretty easy for me to determine that it's incomplete this shouldn't take long If this then goes back to a five yard penalty, you're looking at a field goal tribe of more than 50 yards and realizing that Dan Bailey's 53-yard field goal at the beginning of the half is the longest field goal made in the history of this stadium in an NFL game, so Boswell will do so if this is overridden and we believe that The capture will be overridden.

We will have a field goal attempt at more than 50 yards to try to gain a two-point lead. This is a notoriously difficult stadium to kick field goals with the wind currents coming our way. wait for Clete blakeman's call and here comes Clete blakeman's call and they're going to have to figure out where the ball is going and that might be why this review is taken as long as you have to review the play the receiver is making. going to the ground in the process of catching the ball lost control it is an incomplete pass however during the play prior to the pass they held the defense number 32. that will be penalized five yards in the previous point with an automatic first down but there are only two left seconds at Boswell there will now be a long field goal attempt what at this point is a two point play will be a 55 yard attempt which would be a long run for Boswell and the longest in an NFL game in the stadium's history is this season good center good grip the field goal is not good it had the length but wide to the right and it is a two point game in the United States game of the week and a good half of American football Steelers and Cowboys The good matchup What's coming up should be a fun second half.

Kurt Menefee, take it at halftime of The Visa, which is coming up right now. Today's excitement is brought to you by the new Nissan Titan. Very well, foreigner, the new Nissan Titan brings it to you. That early fumble loss. for Dak Prescott, the turnover that first half and I really don't know how Troy characterizes the first half. I mean, it's close, it's a two-point game, a lot of penalties and they really save a couple of big plays, especially the big one. to Ezekiel Elliott there's no real highlights in that first half no, you know, like you said outside of Ezekiel Elliott's screen pass for the touchdown 83 yards, you know, not a lot of big plays.

The Cowboys have had difficulty sustaining series, they converted the first one and lost. in some third shorts and because of that they haven't been able to play the game that they've been playing all season and the Steelers have been able to put up some yards and do some things that we haven't seen from them in the last few weeks, but you know, Of course, Tomlin decided to bet on two, that is, a couple of points that the distributors have not been able to obtain. The strengths of the first half for both teams. The Steelers will start the second half with the ball at their own 25. and we'll take you to Aaron Andrews, well, you just mentioned that 83-yard touchdown by Ezekiel Elliott and that was the only thing Mike Tallman wanted to talk to me about.

He said that you know his team, with which his defense has done a good job. the tackling and the pressure, but the only thing he really mentioned with his team was that touchdown. He said we can't let these explosive plays happen, especially when we know it's going to happen. I asked both coaches what this game was about.will reduce Mike Tomlin telling me we can't hunt, they have to clear Jason Garrett telling me we have to clear these penalties, yes, it was a lot of penalties in the first half, eight of them for Dallas. for 60 yards was a problem for Pittsburgh last week Baltimore here is one that goes for a deep pass to Hamilton and has it at the 35. and from the beginning the Steelers air it and complete one to Kobe Hamilton for 39. yes Just when you say there aren't a lot of big plays, Colby Hamilton runs up and Brandon Carr turns around, but it's still contested and Hamilton has to go up and then make a play, he can get a high point and he drags it hard.

Hands and a good start for the Steelers offense. Ben Roethlisberger has always had great touch on the deep ball. There are so many things that could be at the top of the list. You set up 39 yards and now, on first down action, and that was a The broken play to the 39 yard line to Hamilton is seen from the pocket and when you run those types of routes then you have to have some time in the middle and you see Roethlisberger with a good bag and plenty of room to be. able to step up and expose it and like I said, Kobe Hamilton has good coverage and even with Brandon Carr getting his hand on the ball, he can drag it and you know, hey, Mike Tomlin talked about it this week that they wanted. to see some guys besides Antonio Brown make plays and he comes into action eight different receivers Robles Burgers today second and nine now down the line on the other side incomplete passes Antonio Brown made the catch but out of bounds his hands his athletic ability just off the charts and out of bounds, yeah, I think if Antonio Brown had known he was that close, he would have been able to put his feet down and I don't even know how Roethlisberger was able to give him a chance.

Anthony Brown, the rookie, was in great position, got just one well-thrown ball and just missed that one. Are they on the outside edge of field goal range? Boswell may in the past be sketchy, but Flags Colby Hamilton and Anthony Brown Foreign aren't sure exactly who Roethlisberger was trying to throw the ball to. It didn't look like a catchable ball to me and I went after him, once again he went after rookie Anthony Brown, pass interference, Defense number 30. The ball that plays to the spot of the foul, first down, Pittsburgh, you see Colby Hamilton , what are you waiting for. the ball on the outside is thrown to the inside and there is an inside receiver who was also running down the field.

Well, I don't think even without contact there, Kobe Hamilton could make a play. the ball, you see Jason Garrett, is trying to say the ball was tipped. I think it just slipped out of Roethlisberger's hand on the throw, came out weird and then the penalty flag for a 28 yard incomplete penalty now Brown is looking for a flag, it's been a lot of Anthony Brown with Ben Roethlisberger going behind the number 30. who was upset because he got that 28 yard pass interference call against him and here's another look and then you know they get the panel they get the 28 yard gain Kobe Hamilton goes after Brandon Carr on the first play and drags it since then they have been deep throws to Anthony Brown second and goal Burger's ruthless pass is almost Eli Rogers was intercepted with a kick and then to the grass in the end zone.

Third and goal shot here and you know it's one where Eli Rogers has to be able to make a play, but yeah, the Steelers are lucky to be down. Here in the Red Zone, a condensed area when you miss high and the ball leaves the hands like it did most of the time, that ball is intercepted. Bell Le'Veon Bell at the bottom of the screen, Brandon Carr in front of him, third and goal. quick throw pass interrupted and they are Fourth Down Steelers looking for a flag that they do not get Antonio Brown the objective with Byron Jones in coverage yes, they work the inside tilt, they have outside tilt towards Le'Veon Bell and there were hands there and I agree with Antonio Brown, I think there should have been a call, but I also had Le'Veon Bell on the outside, who ran a really good route, had a clean look for a touchdown, but I think the Cowboys went away with one here it is Boswell now a 25 yard drive two of three in the afternoon and it's a five point game in Pittsburgh today's game is sponsored by Southwest yeah the low bears with nothing to hide that's transparency by the new 2017 Ford Super Duty this It's the next level and Miller Lite, the original foreign light beer, was presented by the Steelers and Steeler Nation come together to recognize a group of fans for their dedication and support of the Pittsburgh Steelers, more than 500 fans attended and most traveled from Mexico by plane and by bus a kick to the end zone and the lucky Whitehead will take it able to cross the 25. and a 30 yard return in honor of Veterans Day watch this for each point scored during the 32nd salute from the NFL to service games the league will donate $1,000 to its military nonprofit partners, including the Pat Tillman Uso Foundation and the Wounded Warrior Project join the salute and learn more visit nfl.com salute, well, that didn't sound like much fun John jumping out of that airport but impressive and now from the 26th here's Dak Prescott where Elliott can cross the 30 he picked up six we'll get into that at some point but Tony Romo is getting healthier and healthier though , it's been almost a

full

calendar year.

Since he last played in a game counting last Thanksgiving at home against Carolina when he broke his left collarbone for the second time last season, obviously much better with Tony Romo, but that was done without Dak Prescott, who led the Cowboys to a 7-1. starts and is putting up numbers, but few have been able to do it in the history of this league when a rookie throws to another rookie and Elliott is going to fight and get knocked down close for a first down for Dallas, well, it makes you wonder, you know? How short is the leash on Deck Prescott?

Do you know when this team has problems or when he has problems? What happens if they don't win this game here tonight? I don't have the answer to that, but it's one that everyone asks and I believe. You raised a good point, Joe, about Tony Romo. I think a lot of people look at him and think about the 2014 version and recognize that he didn't play a lot of games last year, but the ones he did play he didn't particularly play. well, and then of course we know about the injury, so I'm as interested as anyone to see exactly what happens when Prescott hits that bump in the road.

Here's Elliott with a first down. Romo's numbers are fantastic, 78 and 49. But he has only two wins in his postseason career, two and four, he has thrown for over 33,000 yards, his winning percentage is tremendous. In the regular season he is also 36. He has to get back into shape on the first try. first catch for Whitton, who is out of bounds on Dallas' first attempt. I think what we do know, Joe, is that you talk to the players in this team, they love playing for number four and there is a chemistry and an energy in this club that you just don't know.

I don't see him very often and he's hard to catch and I would be very careful and I've said it all season long: no matter what happens in a game when he hits it, you know we all had it, you know as quarterbacks. that you have to be. very smart with the way they handle it because there are a lot of guys in that locker room and 52 others that also have opinions on what they think should happen, here's Elliott with a good run in first to the 45. Aaron Andrews and when you talk with guys like Sean Lee or Jason Witten they all say that these young players like Dak Prescott and Ezekiel Elliott are helping them feel young again and the other thing that Sean Lee told us the other day was that, while they're joking around and having fun, They're very serious in practice and that is something that these veterans also appreciate a lot, but second attempt and four, here is Elliot, who delays the progress a little.

Progress is about a yard away from first down, it's third and one, and only to end up with Dak Prescott, a guy who didn't run many meets in college Jason Whitton, who by the way is probably Tony Romo's closest friend in the Cowboys team, said that from the first day, when Prescott intervened, he commanded the meeting, he is a friend of the defensive lineman, The Long Snapper LP, La duser you. He goes around the team, this guy has a relationship with every single one of them and they love him and even last week when he had to show some leadership with Dez Bryant, he surprised him.

Brian came out after the fact and said he really appreciates it, appreciates the form. Prescott handled it here's Elliott, he's now three for three on third and one in this game and it's a first down for Dallas as they trail by five, we'll see Ezekiel Elliott making a guy miss right in the hole, right there. I have a linebacker Lawrence Timmons that is unblocked and there to make a play and I've been asked a lot here this year, you know, comparing Ezekiel Elliott to Emmett Smith and the only thing I think they have in common is that they can turn that first guy . in the unblocked hole as we saw him miss as well as anyone I've seen, Emmett made a run out of it and after eight nine games now Elliot is too, Prescott airs it for Dez Bryant incomplete and Prescott ends up on the ground like he was under pressure , well, Alfred Morris has to help in pass protection, but Prescott has pressure right in his face, knows he's going to get hit, tries to throw the ball and a good route outside of Dez Bryant, just a ball that sails to him because of the pressure Ryan Shazier and James Harrison are there to take him down, here's Morris on second and ten big third downs for Dallas, a three game, oh meanwhile the decision is a little easier when Tony Romo is in a sweatshirt on the bench dressed lightly next week all eyes will be on number four on third down and seven come on timeout taken by the Steelers who were moving all over the place defensively on third down and seven with timeout taken by Mike Tomlin and before this third and seven we will have a chance to take them to the broadcast booth Prescott comes to the sideline Joe Buck along with Hall of Famer Troy Aikman and as I guess we just took a bow on the whole situation Tony Romo is something that is not going to go away for the Dallas Cowboys, they have a guy who is a multi-time Pro Bowler who looks to be the backup and I think at least initially Tony Romo will do it and he has already handled the situation the best he could.

You've seen Dak Prescott surprise everyone in the NFL, yes I agree with that. I think Dak Prescott has handled it as well as anyone could ask him to and I think they kept waiting thinking they wouldn't have to make a statement. but once Tony Romo suits up and is on the sideline as a backup, you can bet you know that then it's the call on third down and it's called a seven pass Blitz, what a throw by Dez Bryant and Dak Prescott before Bryant was even close to arrive. off his break, a first down, yeah, and Prescott can't really calm down, he knows the pressure is on and he has to put it on and give Brian a chance knowing exactly where he's going to be and Bryant goes and gets it, that's a great job. converting, you see Ronald Leary, he can come out that late, just helps give Prescott Dallas a little more protection, chewing up some time here, this one is on Cole Beasley's right hand for an offense that has turned three third Downs into this series. he was trailing by five and all Ben can do is watch with the rest of us.

I think Beasley might have been happy the ball was high because there were a couple of unblocked Steelers getting ready to unload on him, this will be the twelfth. drive play just get out of the NFL 10 or more plays coming in we have diamonds we just get it caught pass Dez Bryant backs off a little lost some progress forward and Artie Burns it's good to see him back in the game after leaving with a knee injury the first half, that completion was already good for six Burns, that's a really nice play, it doesn't look like a big deal, but he's a tough guy to throw down in the open field, we've seen him catch that ball a few times. get out of there and not be tackled, we will now see what Scott Linehan, this is a breakthrough that offensively they had had problems on third down, they have converted several of them here on this possession and now they face each other for the third and fourth Prescott. he gets sacked around the 30. and Harrison comes in, passes by Zach Martin who loses his balance and gets internal pressure and Prescott just can't feel James Harrison on his butt, he holds on to him thinking maybe he can escape from Harrison. caps it off with a 46 yard drive by Dan Bailey and Bailey well again three of three in this game is number five and again a two point thief leads small stadium sized screen content watch local Sunday games live on your smartphone with NFL Mobile good game in Pittsburgh are the Dallas Cowboys 7-1 against the four and four Pittsburgh Steelers Baltimore arrives leading the AFC North, they beat Cleveland 28-7Thursday.

The Steelers are trying to match the Ravens at five and four and Pittsburgh has two games left with winless Cleveland. before the end of the season, here's the Tucson foreigner hitting the limit and a nice comeback across the 30. Back to work, Big Ben, look kids, Big Ben Parliament, he'll be on the field too when let's go back. Today's game is sponsored by the all new 2017 Ford Super Duty this is the next level for Ben Roethlisberger there it is his second day touchdowns no interceptions Antonio Brown some tough catches in Le'Veon Bell has a touchdown reception 12 carries 46 yards good game Steelers up by two here's bill with Lee chasing him and bringing him down from behind can't afford to see them start there with a run, you think about that last Steelers possession, they went after Anthony Brown, took their shots deep and something that We're used to seeing Roethlisberger over the years being able to take advantage of some of those looks and see if they don't attack Anthony Brown again on this well-played possession up front and Bell just did a great job of turning it into a positive. play and then a big hit from JJ Wilcox at the end Hitchens initially and on the stop on a three-thirds gain and three going up oh we've seen Bell with some nice runs some pretty nifty runs he's got a 16 yard run. but really, for the most part, the Haley Haley Cowboys have to be pretty pleased with the way they handled the running game.

You guys on third down and three downs behind Demarcus Lawrence? Well, they had a man to man and Brandon Carr is in Antonio Brown's coverage and there was enough collision there that made Roethlisberger hang on to him more than he wanted to, he just wanted to release him and shoot down the field and when he comes out of brown, Demarcus Lawrence is there. to make a play Demarcus was suspended for the first four games of the season here's a nice punt that gives Whitehead some room to maneuver and the lucky Whitehead on the bench cuts it off, he still got a great block and the punter was smoked, it was Keith smart with a block on Jordan Perry and a 39-yard return for Lucky Whiteheads, his biggest season in 20.

Well played by the Dallas punt return team and good starting field position, two foreigners were observed on the bench after receiving a head. -Hit to the head after a 57 yard punt here's Ezekiel Elliott on the left side the punt ends at 18 yards due to the good return and there's the hit Smith, the big fullback 41. to Jordan Berry, hey, those guys, those gamblers. I'm not used to getting hit like that, obviously, and hey, give Jordan Buried some credit, he's got to go in there and try to make a play and he did, he took the punishment. I'm surprised no one is watching, those guys don't recover well. those kind of hits, but good job on his part, second and three passes to Morris within a yard of a first down, well we've seen Dallas now here on first and second down come out and run the ball and I would start to wait See more of Ezekiel Elliott and more of Alfred Morris and you know that for two and a half quarters of this ball game, almost three quarters, the Cowboys have been throwing the ball more than running, that's not atypical, but during the course of the game they Like this.

It's when they start to like to impose their will to hit them with the Run game and I would expect to see that really play out as we go through the rest of the alley of the game against him and pick him up again, but a flag pops up, yeah. and it is against Dallas that maintains the offense for another 65. A 10-yard penalty that we played on third down that erased distance on the first down, since they called it against Ronald Leary, yes, I think it was also a good decision. Larry is right there 65. You see Daniel McColers' left-arm grab nullifying what would have been a first down for the Cowboys. the third offensive holding penalty against Dallas and you see the penalties are really piling up 10 for 98 yards now third and 11. this field pass caught touchdown Des Bryant foreigner for Dez Bryant is one on one man coverage on the rookie with Hardy Burns and some contact on the field, but Prescott with pressure they bring in the inside linebacker Blitz and Prescott is able to move far enough to his left and actually throw a perfect ball and Dez Bryant bottles it for a moment and drags it in for a big Third Third Conversion attempt for six points, Floyd which was 50 yards on third down and 11. created by Whitehead's punt return and in the US game of the week and this great intra-conference showdown Cowboys Steelers Dallas up five when Bryant gets the touchdown One of the best things you can say about Dak Prescott is that the game hasn't been too fast for him and he's been able to find open guys in front of Dez Bryant well in this game and people talk about that relationship all the time. week.

Dak Prescott is capable. to find the big number 88 for a 50 yard touchdown and a points lead, well back to that, yeah defensive coordinator Keith Butler decides to put pressure on these guys to blitz and then the safety has to work for the middle of the field that allows one on one up with the rookie already burns in Dez Bryant and many times for a young quarterback, when you apply pressure, clear the looks because you know you have one on one. -one and Prescott is able to buy some time and throws a perfect throw to Dez Bryant, who is having a great day.

He's a guy who's been targeted a lot, he hasn't always caught a lot of balls, but in this game he targeted nine. times six receptions of over 100 yards receiving none bigger than a 50 yard touchdown from the 25 now a low screen throw caught by Bell and Bell was tackled Terrell McLean crashed into him a gain of only three Dak Prescott came into this game with only one completion of 50 or more yards in his rookie season, he has three total, now he's 2-1 in this first half for Ezekiel Elliott and now the go-ahead touchdown for Dez Bryant, well, we talked about that before, There hasn't been a lot of big plays made in the passing game against the Cowboys this year, but you get the running game going and it kind of opened up some things for some one-on-one looks which, of course, were third-and-11, but Keith Butler decided to apply pressure, try to get the ball out of the rookies' hands, quickly, he buys some time and then he is exposed on the outside, a medical timeout number 66 for Pittsburgh, he must come out for a play due to a medical situation , well, now David de Castro, a professional bowler from a year ago, is going to have to leave and has no say, you bring in B.J Finney to take over the guard and obviously someone on the field or one of the officials he saw something he didn't like and David de Castro's part for the The medical staff is upstairs so he has to check, that's why we showed you the replay in the commercial break when David de Castro was shot in the head and now you watch Castro aside, that man in the blue hat is an independent consultant. be there at the huddle to ensure that Castro is okay to continue after this play, the second and seventh sacks made by Bell and Bell will be taken down just before the first down by Damian Wilson back in the game, so now third. down and one passed the tests on the bench, they didn't have to take him to the locker room, they got their Pro Bowl back, a lot of confusion on the part of the Steelers there and they've had 12 men on the field anyway. a flag before the center, we'll have to do a light Blakeman, yeah, we'll see how they fix this.

This could be a very costly penalty for the Steelers. There is no fault for the defense or the offense, having a twin man on the field. We're still in the substitution process on third down, so because they blew the play before David Johnson could get off the field, there's no penalty. Jason Garrett doesn't like it and remains third in inches, butter, butter to Bell and heck, and he's a first, Byron Jones at tackle and with that we finish three quarters, good game, five points, Cowboy lead after this from your local Fox station. Well, both star running backs have a receiving touchdown in this game, an 83-yard Ezekiel Elliott or two. one down by Le'Veon Bell today, five-point game starting the fourth quarter and a pass to Brown knocked down by Lawrence, who also has the only Cowboy sack in this game, had eight a year ago to lead the team and is back. and playing better after his four-game suspension to start the year, yes, it seemed like Demarcus Lawrence was playing past Russ the entire way down the field and not anticipating Ron, but on that play, the Steelers are really lucky that's all that happened because Demarcus Lawrence, from where he was standing, a lot of bad things could have happened worse than what happened to the Steelers, a loss of 10 seconds and 20.

The lady passes caught, that is, Ladarius Green to make for a more manageable third down, since Green is good for 11. That's all Roethlisberger was trying to do there, you know, backing off on second down, trying to get enough yards. The Cowboys played coverage to make it at least manageable on third and nine from 11. What a job Rob Marinelli has done with his defense, yes, Marinelli. He's not a big blitz guy and likes to just rush forward to cover the play and that's what it looks like he's going to do here on third down, third down and nine down passes caught by Bell and hit hard .

The flag is down. J.J Wilcox with another big hit and the decision is against Pittsburgh, you can use the 77th offense out of your hands. That penalty that Klein brings on fourth down is against Marcus Gilbert and JJ Wilcox has been hitting hard besides Joe, this is a big hit from Wilcox, comes in and Le'Veon. Bell, that's one of those that you're not sure the guy is going to pick up, but when he first caught the ball, if he makes Byron Jones miss, it looked like he was going to be able to get the first down now that you had the penalty. on Marcus Gilbert, but JJ Wilcox is level playing in place of the injured Barry Church with a broken forearm.

Here's the punt from the last time we saw Jordan Berry, he took a hard hit and Harry hangs one on a good punt to the sideline, the Cowboys have the ball. 45-yard punt also have a five-point lead today's game is sponsored by Audi C exceptional deals on select models throughout the season about a sales event and by Burger King now get three large pancakes for just 89 cents Only at Burger King and Rooney's Cardinal World North Catholic Trojans lost their playoff game to the Neshanic Lancers on Friday night as if Tomlinson and Joey Porter's son broke the game on that team.

Here's Elliott on the right side on the first try. Dan Rooney went there. The 84-year-old former Hall of Fame ambassador to Ireland. 2009 to 2012 for President Obama and there he is, North Catholic and a quarterback from a generation of 1950. One of the class men in NFL history. Well, we don't get the chance to get to Pittsburgh often, but when we do. It sure is good to see Mr. Rooney and I get to see him on Friday, it means a lot to this league. Prescott throws behind Whitten. The passes reached his yard short of a first down as Timmons makes the tackle again from seven third downs and a Coming in third here and the Steelers overall have done a decent job with Ezekiel Elliott, he's averaging about five yards for carry, but his longest run is only eight yards, that says a lot, trying to keep him bottled up and can you stop him here? on third and one they give the ball back to their offense with a late substitution of Chance for Dallas, they bring in an additional offensive lineman, Joe Looney, game clock and five it's Elliott who cuts and doesn't get it, a claim made by Sean Davis, the rookie and "Nice job by the second round pick out of Maryland, he's on fourth down, now he's one of those rookies that has contributed to this team and gotten more playing time.

He just shoots, he can get in there and get to third and you can. You don't wait, you have to go and he does it and it's an excellent job. He'll come here and make a play and then of course Lawrence Timmons will be there too, but it's an outstanding job by this defense of Pittsburgh force a three and Our defense comes into this game ranked 24th in the NFL trapped by Jones with Brown waiting inside the 35. Room Far Side Jones in his way and putter Chris Jones forced him out after a return of 22 yards from Antonio Brown and great starting field position. for the Steelers to be behind by five when counting the most, the Pittsburgh Steelers have defeated the Dallas Cowboys twice out of three Super Bowls Of Days Gone By here's Bell back at half for the Steelers on offense now 58. and let's go back to Lance Dunbar Sammy's punt coverage team and coats, there are a lot of things allowed on the outside that don't draw a penalty for yowling at each other on that play.

The second time the SteelersThey started driving in cowboy territory they did on their first possession afterward. Prescott's fumble quickly threw Brown with a blocker in front on first down for Pittsburgh and that was Eli Rogers who turned in the block tonight if you really want to know what outrageous means Fox Sunday is happy to give you a lesson in all the new Fox Sunday tonight starting at 8 Eastern Seven Central here not only on Fox that Cowboys defense has their hands full they give the ball to the Steelers at midfield and trying to stop this group is not an easy task great first there Delaney but Antonio Brown here's Brown on the The other side got a round from Byron Jones, but Brandon Carr is there to stop a game of just two.

Now you see how dangerous he can be when they get the ball, you know it quickly in his hands with a little space and he had a good block on that second catch on the previous play to pick it up that time wasn't much help but he was still able to catch at least a little bit of the lady after a 22-yard punt return by Brown, here's Antonio again. out of bounds near the 10. Well, it's a well designed route by the Steelers and they can get Antonio Brown into that little soft area in the zone right behind Leon McFadden and because they get a receiver on the ground enough. to help hold down McFadden, create some space and then Antonio Brown gets behind him.

Leon McFadden is in the game because Orlando Scandrick is out as they check him for a hit to the head, they quickly throw Jesse James near the here's the hit Orlando Scandrick took and the Cowboys are very weak at the corner now without Claiborne and Scandrick Fadden was in it a week ago and there's Orlando Scandrick first and the goal of one is an extra offensive lineman Chris Hubbard comes in for Pittsburgh and then retires Roosevelt. Well, now he chains it up and takes it for a touchdown Pittsburgh and they're going to go for two once again, here's the touchdown.

Well, just a good tough run by Le'Veon Bell and he had enough to be able to extend it for the touchdown. Great job. Pittsburgh, you see, leads with Nixon's fullback, like you said, Hubbard, he's there to try to help. The Cowboys had a chance, but Le'Veon Bell was just able to run through it and finish off a drive that, like I said, started at midfield, it was tough, he tried. to contain this group with that type of field position to start this drive oh for two on this play Bell at the top of the screen this to make it a three point play what's up?

Roethlisberger just turns it over and hits an incompletion. Toussaint appeared in front of Jesse James and James may have been there to catch it easily and out of nowhere it comes to Sant who can't make the play and the bonus is that today's game is sponsored by T-Mobile and is switched to the network built for unlimited data. I'll show you the two-point try, since the Steelers are now three-age on the two-point try in this game, they tried a two-point try the first time, you're always trying to get those points back when you don't make it. He doesn't convert and the lead is only one, let's see his last attempt, what a play by Roethlisberger and look at 81, he ends up waiting for this floater that is about to land in his stomach and here comes Toussaint to take it away now to save the day and him.

I didn't know James was there, who could have made a play and you're right, Ben Roethlisberger does a great job, you know, Under pressure, you know, giving his guy a chance and toussainted. He sees James there and he tried to make a play and as a result, they came to score the points. I think you know your point is well made, that once you fail on the first two-point conversion, Tomlin has been chasing those points ever since Prescott is here on well-protected first down throws. High for Lucky Whitehead who jumps out of bounds and is then sent off and it will be a 15 yard penalty for Ross Cockrell.

Thanks after the play. Lack of personnel. Unnecessary harshness. Defense number 31. 15 yards from the end of the run. First, Dallas. Well, that's the opposite side of the Steelers, so Mike Tomlin can't say exactly what happened, but I think it was an easy decision. He is out of bounds and hits a throw that takes the ball to the 45. 20-yard gain on the play and the transfer of the penalty to Elliott when we talked to Mike Tomlin, he said that what Elliott does so well is that he As the game goes on it wears down the defense and specifically wears down the defensive backs, the smaller guys trying to get in. to make tackles I'm not that excited as the game has progressed so far, for the most part, the high level he's kept in check, yeah, 72 yards and that's been a tough 72 yards, I've had to fight hard for every one of them. play action Prescott now throws it to Ali on the first down and over and the clock continues to wind down as Elliott with a catch and a run for 12. just good patience on Prescott's part, looks like he's trying to get the ball, you know, on the field, it's not there, he knows where his starting receiver is with Elliott, he leaves it to him and No, these are the things you learn as you progress in this league, but Prescott shows great patience and rarely forces the ball and you see the job Tyron Smith does trying to stop that guy James Harrison.

That's a tall order, Beasley. He has been played by rookie Sean Davis. No game, they really haven't been able to get Beasley going in this game today. He had been Prescott's favorite target entering the game and a guy who went his way every time. He caught the ball more than 80 percent of the time when the ball was thrown to him, he knocked it down with a completed pass. He's had a couple of drops and some missed opportunities, but the Steelers have had answers for him. The pass is fired to Winton, who spins it. Let's give Mark Whitton a short first down about a half yard, it looks like they're really going to get a measure.

It's excellent work by Prescott. He initially he wants to go to Beasley and you see the attention that Beasley attracts and Prescott comes. off that immediately Work back to Whitton for a nice finish to set up this third and short, well, they're going to measure, it looks like it's a little short. Whitton is making his case by saying he didn't make enough progress with that extra. He turns and reaches and it will be a third down and to that point they are within field goal range trailing by one and that's going through Jason Garrett's mind if we don't pick it up.

I think what's going through his mind is that we better pick him up. get up and continue to take time off this clock and not give the ball back to Pittsburgh. I think everyone knows what Roethlisberger is capable of doing. Ezekiel Elliott is three of four on third down and one in this game is less than one and this defense is sixth. The best in the NFL comes into this game at Third and they give one to Elliott. He has it at four and a half and here's the added benefit, although it's probably more than just an added benefit when you have the running game that the Cowboys have.

It's just that you can eat up a lot of the clock since they're in a position down here for just one Pittsburgh, just two timeouts and we've got four minutes left and if they throw it I would expect to see a high percentage. Get the ball out quick, make sure you keep the clock running, oh, that's in the middle, there he easily catches in traffic, the clock will wind up under four doors out of seven, well, we talk about Elliott and all the things that can do by catching. the ball and running with the ball, but for a young running back, those are the things that impress me.

You just don't see that the guy that's what most running backs aren't asked to do, in college, they really struggle with that. The ball that Prescott just threw added a little bit of risk away from Elliott in the middle of the field second and three here's Elliot dragging down what a play by Shazier, that's a great job by Shazier, you'll usually see the tandem block here. What are you going to get O'Leary out of? He's not capable of making a play. Ryan Shazier only sees an opening. The ball is passed to Elliott. He hits it. He has great speed and quickness.

He makes a great play. He can do everything in his third game later. from a knee injury, can cover, can play The Run, can Blitz, there's not much else you need to do at linebacker, third and eight, now the monster first down is Jason Witten, he takes it inside the 15. and the rookie Prescott makes another strong throw well third and long Prescott knows where he's going and that's Jason Witten has made a living with this option route in the middle of the field will soon be a member of the Hall of Fame five years after his retreat on the route he is best known for is the option route and apparently no one can defend it.

He pushes up, can drive inside and then come off the counterattack and when the ball is where it needs to be, it's almost impossible to defend. The Cowboys don't have to break it before the two-minute warning, it just can't be emphasized how big that first down was at the two-minute warning, Dallas' first down by one, those two-point attempts can come back to haunt the Steelers today. The game is sponsored by Subway. Try the classic move stack with corned beef. For a limited time, just come back and check out that Jason Witten route option here in the slot.

Ryan. She's here. He will be asked to try to cover it. you see how Garrett pushes up, excuse me, Whitton pushes up, but when he comes out of that, that ball has to be perfectly placed as well and that's the point in the ball game where a young player can get a little tight and not make the shot. Gotta make Dak Prescott have a critical moment in this game throws a perfect ball Joe Elliott starts well and cuts it down the field Touchdown Dallas and you wonder here with the score being what it is, first of all, Dallas is in a position in which two points can be scored.

The conversion gives them a seven-point lead. Second, one wonders if the Pittsburgh Steelers weren't so determined to stop Elliott anyway, his offense will get the ball back and Dallas will now be looking for the two-point drive. Well, that's the right decision. Try to make this a seven point game, how did the offensive line do it with Travis Frederick and then backside Ron Ron Leary? He also makes a key block that opens up that hole for Ezekiel Elliott. My guys haven't tried a two point truck. Watch out for Prescott, he's run the quarterback draw from here, the first two-point pass to Bryant is incomplete and I'll say it again, the Dallas Cowboys were in a position to run out the clock and force the Steelers to use his timeouts the touchdown makes it a five-point lead, but the Steelers are about to take it back.

Ezekiel Elliott with a season-high 177 yards from scrimmage in a game, has two touchdowns and now one rushing, but the Pittsburgh Steelers are about to get him back and they will. have the game and the hands of Ben Roethlisberger as they trail by five but a minute 55 and double odds and the journey begins at 25. Tomorrow night National Geographic invites you to go to Mars, join humanity's greatest adventure and find out how he made Mars his home the new series Mars premieres tomorrow night only on National Geographic it's not Mars but the moon hasn't been this close to us in 68 years a supermoon a beautiful night in Pittsburgh and how is it going to end tonight with a Steeler snap? a three-game losing streak, the Dallas Cowboys make it eight straight wins, hey, thanks, quick throw to Brown a little behind him with a good catch.

The short game clock winds up two timeouts. McFadden is there making the stop. McFadden just added last week. former third-round pick by Cleveland in 2013. The Cowboys provide help from the outside on the field. It's for a first try. Ladarius Green has to complete Lagarius Green. We'll talk about the touchdown with Elliott when we get the chance right now after that 10-yard gain. with the safeties on first down for Pittsburgh, plenty of room for Le'Veon Bell inside the 40. and a timeout taken by the Steelers, thank you, a pretty nifty little play by the Steelers. Le'Veon Bell, he's going to start on the outside, but then they put Castro on, he leads the way to block and brings in Le'Veon Bell, then underneath it's close because he can't be on the field making a block before the ball is caught and makes a hit, it has to be at the line of scrimmage, so the Steelers could have been called, but that's what freed up Le'Veon Bell for the big play and again the first play after the two-minute warning with two timeouts remaining.

The Steelers on defense saw Ezekiel Elliott just charge. he is almost intact, makes the deficit five, but gives the number seven the opportunity to answer yes in a game that has had five lead changes. Jesse James, an obstacle to reach 15. Well, they caught the cowboys that time they threw so wide. Receiver Screen Antonio Brown So Often and Then They Tucked It Behind Him Here's a Brown Fake Touchdown Punt Pittsburghshadows of Mourinho come back and take a look at the previous play before that one for the touchdown they've been throwing out to Antonio Brown this time they sneak past James looking like he's going to block they get the play there they come back face each other they fake the shot Antonio Brown one one out on Leon McFadden what shot by Roethlisberger on Pittsburgh native Dan Marino is the first or at least the last one we saw do that and Ben Roethlisberger faked the shot and then it fell beautifully and for the fourth time the Steelers will try two three here, yeah, build it up to a three-point lead time left for Dallas. by the way and takeaway and now Carr on the return and a flag pops up at the end, but just a score there really means something and how about Ben Roethlisberger five of five on those touchdown drives going forward, no foul.

Due to a low block on the play, the winner was the ball carrier, so it was legal. But it's not good, so all fours tried two tonight and with all those misses, a field goal for Dallas wins the game. Here's lead change number six this is just a great veteran move you know something they talk about during the week they work and Antonio Brown knew what was coming he runs out that wasn't a fluke and it's a job excellent. You see Demarcus Lawrence just stand up. They weren't ready for that at all, no that's what happened so many times you get into a routine and the Steelers can take advantage of it, but how about the afternoon that Ben Roethlisberger had and the last two weeks that he played?

He's been a little tough after a very tough outing last week against the Baltimore Ravens and he's a different guy. You talk to anyone who has followed this team when they are at home and you never bet against them. He's a fantastic player, he had a great career and he delivered when they needed him right now well let's go back to the other side three timeouts in the moment 42 seconds left for rookie Dak Prescott his Cowboys defense came in as one of the two teams that didn't They've allowed over 23 points this season along with the Vikings Steelers have put up 30.

Well, Prescott has a few things working in his favor. I mean, first of all, they have their three timeouts and they have Dan Bailey on the sideline, his longest field goal is 56 yards. but I don't think anyone really knows what the extent of it is. I mean, this guy can kick, that's a little different here than at Cowboys Stadium, the drive will start at the 25. If you're just tuning into this game, you'll have missed a lot Dak Prescott with another impressive day for rookie Ben Roethlisberger, three weeks after left knee surgery, just phenomenal and the Steelers tried too early on their first touchdown of the game, they've been chasing those points ever since, oh, by four. two point attempts and because of all that, this is only a one point lead for Pittsburgh here's Prescott throwing with his momentum taking him back to his own End Zone and down for Whitton second down, yeah that's one of the ones where the Cowboys are glad it was. incomplete, if he makes that catch, they'll tackle him almost in the same spot, they would have had to burn one of his timeouts.

Dez Bryant, he's getting some attention right now, they've got two guys locked on him, woman, I can. I don't imagine they're going to give him a one-on-one look, but right now Prescott Fires have Beasley. Beasley had the first try and he may have abandoned it. It looks like he has given himself enough progress for a new set and a timeout. for Dallas, we'll give you a video recap of Ezekiel Elliott with an 83-yard touchdown catch and ran on a 50-yard screen to Dez Bryant on third down and 11 and the Cowboys were celebrating Le'Veon Bell had a game of two touchdowns. during year one on the ground and then Ezekiel Elliott just walked on the first play after the two-minute warning and that gave Big Ben the opportunity to do it, go down the field perfect on the drive and the touchdown to Brown for a one- Point leader Prescott now on a first down pass is caught by Whitney and Whitton has another first down and with 23 seconds left, Dallas takes their second timeout in case you were wondering.

Troy talked about Bayley's long run, 56 yards that would mean taking it. to the 38 yard line, but nothing is a given in this stadium and on the previous play this officiating crew missed that mask call by William Gay against Cole Beasley by turning his helmet all the way around and that would have been a 15 yard free. 15 yards, yeah that's obviously huge from where the ball was caught, in case you're wondering what kind of game this has been, no NFL game this season has had seven lead changes, we're at six, if we get to seven, the Cowboys will take control. the lead on that purple line would be the outside edge of field goal range for bayley, first down once out, Prescott throws, the pass is caught and written stays on his feet and a flag is thrown at the end and let's see what it could be this decision. if it's a mask, this would be huge.

I'm not sure what it looks like. They missed the Beasley one, but it looks like they're going to get this one on Sean Davis and a personal foul by grabbing the mask. 31st Defense The 15-yard penalty falls on Dallas and perhaps most importantly, it saves the timeout and Whitton was already on his feet. I mean I wasn't really going anywhere. This was a team that was penalized a lot and that loss last week and none more costly in this game. In addition to that last week, there were 13 penalties against the Ravens for Mike Tomlin's team. This is very important.

Here they are in Dan Bailey's camp right now. Four penalties for 40 yards on this one, big 15 yards here it's LAX Elliott for the touchdown with no flags Cowboys lead nine seconds left left tackle L Pro Tyrant Smith and then Gavin Escobar makes the block, you see the lane right there and it's good Night Irene there There was one second left on the play clock when this ball was snapped and that rookie combination of Prescott and Elliott what a game for Elliot 209 yards from scrimmage three touchdowns and there's a lead change number seven and the Cowboys knew they were in within Dan Bailey's reach, right? there, I think Jason Garrett Scott Linehan just said we're going to run the ball, see what we can get, use our timeout, kick the game winner and Ezekiel Elliott, with a great block in front, goes all the way, this will be the sixth two- The point attempt of this game during the final timeout is taken by Dallas with the game clock running out after the celebration, six point attempts and none of them have been good, oh, five so far, four from Pittsburgh and here's the touchdown, I mean, intact like yours. the previous one on the back of the two-minute warning.

This is an incredible run by an organization that hasn't won eight straight games in a season since the 1977 Super Bowl championship version with the rookie gate getting the ball from Starbucks. Do you think you think Dak Prescott will be quarterback next week? Yes, I think so, he crawls on the limb for the remaining nine seconds, the clock will now run on the two-point attempt and, oh, for six combined, Dez Bryant, the goal, yes, overtime. presented by Lowe's is coming up, well I need to talk about Artie Burns, by the way, I was defending Dez Bryant, I could go full overtime in this game alone let alone what happened in the Chiefs and Denver Broncos win, crazy day here, week 10.

In the entire NFL, nine seconds left Pittsburgh with a timeout, the game the Steelers desperately wanted. They are in danger of losing their fourth straight game to get under 500. Pittsburgh is coming off a loss at Baltimore and has a home game. against the Ravens in Week 16. but the Cowboys are trying to get to eight and one, well, we'll see what happens here with nine seconds left, but everyone hurts, this hurts, especially if you're the Steelers and you're capable. to come back and Roethlisberger mounts a lead offense and with less than a minute to play against a rookie quarterback and you're the Pittsburgh Steelers and those things aren't supposed to happen to a Steelers defense, there will be seven games left for the cowboys after this game Ezekiel Elliott already has over 1,000 rushing yards for the season here's Bailey with a line kick into the end zone to keep time off the clock the NFL rookie rushing record belongs to Eric Dickerson with 1808 with a 1983 LA Rams and that's within range considering how Ezekiel Elliott has done this season to try and Troy not only sets that record but is one of the favorites, if not the favorite, in this moment in the MVP talk, forget Rookie of the Year and hands down. that's a short list but he's down there he's brown in a five point game once the Steelers will use him with two seconds left of course there was a lot of discussion when they drafted Ezekiel Elliott whether or not that was the pick correct.

You're right, it's worth mentioning and Jerry Jones deserves credit for pulling the trigger. There were some who thought it was an attempt to take a running back fourth overall, but Mike Tomlin said, "I haven't seen anyone." coming out of college like Ezekiel Elliott from Adrian Peterson, yeah, and Marshawn Lynch, Mike Tomlin loved him, they love him in Dallas too. The Cowboys have seven guys near the end zone. There are two seconds left, but he has to get to the end zone and it won't be like that. It just so happens that the Dallas Cowboys have won eight in a row and that rookie backfield of Prescott and Elliott as the Cowboys atop the NFC East at 8-1 in his sixth full year as Dallas boss has never been part of a run like this in the NFL, overtime presented by Lowe's, the next game of the week in the United States, what a trip it was in Pittsburgh
