>> cris: let's take a look at our next gen stats. it has been the miscues of the dallas cowboys. 55% of winning after 42. before that blocked field goal, 38% chance of winning after 28. the mathematician is mike mccarthy. and he's not liking it. >> mike: no, you make mistakes, less chance to win. >> cris: amazing, isn't it? >> mike: fourth quarter begins, good morning football. and the run for dowdle. >> cris: angry run by dowdle. >> mike: after good morning football. after midnight, if you're just joining us. the weather that came through

delayed the start of the game about an hour and 25 minutes. look at how many folks are still here. fans of the steelers and cowboys. watching these two teams meet for the first time in four years. dallas on the move, trying to score a touchdown to take the lead. oh, what a play by the rookie. he won the butkus award at nc state for the best linebacker in the country. >> cris: what a move, he's going to go there and dip underneath in order to make this hit. just tremendous speed. i tell you, mike. i watched him a lot this college, and i think eventually he is going to have a presence on the edge as a pass rusher, too. you wait and see. >> mike: prescott, nothing open, taking off. firing to the end zone, caught by dowdle for a touchdown!

and the cowboys take the lead! dak kept it alive and finds the guy who carried the load on this drive! >> cris: i tell you, what is that is some rout. he goes up against, i believe it's donte jackson, no, it's deshon elliott who fell down on the play, and dak made the play they needed to hit. that was close. >> mike: aubrey for the extra point. what a drive for dallas. 16 plays, 90 yards. dowdle did a whole bunch of it on the ground. this reception in the end zone puts the cowboys on top again.

(music plays throughout) (music fades out) dave r. asks... “there are so many games streaming this season. can xfinity internet handle it”" great question, dave. for full analysis, let's go to the “telestrator.” at xfinity, we know the game's only live once. and nothing's more annoying than glitching or buffering. that's why we built xfinity internet with the fastest speeds and ultra-low lag for non-stop action.

>> mike: tonight's snf sights are presented by nationwide after midnight. the head of the ohio river. 13-10. cowboys back on top in this one. aubrey kicks it, and across the 30 and to the 35 yard line. mike mccarthy back home in pittsburgh. grew up in greenfield. a lot of good feeble folks have grown-up in this area. western pennsylvania, long known for the hall of fame quarterback, like montana, moreno and kelly.

but did you know western p.a.'s given us great coaches like ditka. mike mccarthy, chuck knox among the coaches from this western pennsylvania area. grew up on and around steelers football. najee harris the carry there. mike mccarthy talked about coming back and growing up and seeing the black and gold, brings back so many different feelings. >> cris: a lot of different neighborhoods have created this naturally-competitive environment. that's what you saw out of all those quarterbacks and coaches, you know. you are used to just going out and going, all right, let's go to work here. >> mike: steelers won the super bowl in '74. very quiet here tonight. and the pass is incomplete for pickens.

go back to the early days, st. rosalie's school. the picture there. he got to go back home and see his mom, dad, the rest of the family. dak prescott came along with him. chance to see where the mccarthy family roots are. third and five for the steelers. here comes the pressure. deflection and recovered by pickens. across the line. let's see what the final determination is here. the official in the back was with the brush of the hand. >> referee: ruling on the field was a fumble, recovered by the offense. first down. >> mike: all right, so it's a

fumble and first down. >> referee: it is an incomplete pass. >> mike: terry mcauley, i'll bring you in. it's after midnight. you've been hanging with us all night. it's an easy one. >> terry: it is. clear control, hand moving forward. >> cris: so after midnight, he gets a freebie? he goes for a little time? >> mike: the man's been here for hours. you got to address him. that hand pushing the ball forward makes it an easy call. and replay assist jumps in there and gets it. and the cowboy fans here making some noise. bounced out-of-bounds right around the 15 yard line. 12:54 to go. joe mccarthy's bar. it's the current version of it

>> mike: pittsburgh tradition. they play "renegade" from styx, the place goes nuts. comes from 1978. and on cue, a big play after "renegade." deflected up front and incomplete.

>> cris: you know, it really has been, if you just look at yards in this game, a dominant performance from the dallas cowboys, but, 347 yards to 177. but it does not help. now the one thing the cowboys have done their last five drives, at least 50 yards each, so, if they can get it going again here. >> mike: ezekiel elliott takes the carry inside. he'll take it the 18 yard line. another cowboy goes down. and that is zack martin. one of the best in the business. injured for dallas.

>> mike: next sunday night, the giants go to seattle. joe burrow for five touchdowns. cincinnati and the bengals, next sunday. the cowboys down a couple of linemen now as we get to third down and six. melvin anderson has checked in for dallas. nice move on the run. it's a big first down for the cowboys. out past the 30. >> cris: what a call that time by mike mccarthy. send all his receivers to the right. pitch it to the left. crack down with a wide receiver,

and dowdle, who has just been fantastic tonight running, receiving, he's been doing it all. what a breakout game for him. >> mike: they gave me the wrong 67. hoffman is the one who game in the game for zack martin as they took him out. martin jumped on the cart quickly to come back to the locker room. on first down, prescott, rolling it out. spann-ford with a gain of about six. >> melissa: rico dowdle told me he always feels like the underdog. it's not often you see a guy go undrafted for four years. he said there was a ton of room for improvement. they were still figuring out the identity of the running back room. this week it's been physical, hard-nosed. >> mike: for 83 yards here tonight on 22 carries, better

than the average the first four games. ezekiel elliott trying to add to that. missing two starters, and a flag comes in late. and that is huffman, the player who came in when martin went out in the middle of it. the steeler who is down. >> referee: time out for injury. it's demarvin lee ou. ball's being spotted at the 42. >> referee: after the play was over, personal foul, unnecessary roughness, offense number 67. a 15-yard penalty. it will be first and ten. time out for an injury. >> that's hoffman, second year out of virginia tech. one offensive snap thus far this year.

and a couple of starts last year. so the response to keeanu benton. and there's the foul. and it was called as he got up. still the concern for the steelers at the moment. as the injured player in his third year out of texas a&m. demarvin lee ou. we'll step out here in pittsburgh. stant: my bad!

>> mike: injured player for pittsburgh. demarvin leal walked off the field with the training staff. t.j. watt remains on the sideline. cowboys picked up the first down. leading 13-10. trying to stay within a game of the commanders who lead the east. prescott, protected. deep ball. downfield. intercepted! first turnover of the night. joey porter jr. trying to pick up watt. he'll go down at the 35 yard line. prescott picked for the second time.

dad, joey porter, he made them get up and cheer in pittsburgh, he's doing that himself now. >> cris: they're back to that single high in the middle of the field. and yet you just keep hanging the ball up. and minkah fitzpatrick turned away. but you just don't count on joey porter, who has become that shutdown guy for the pittsburgh steelers, clearly, in this game. mike tomlin told us that when there is a man coverage situation, it is going to be joey porter, and it paid off big right there. >> mike: najee harris. crashing through the former detroit lion. >> cris: we haven't even talked about all the guys at the corner back position. bland, carson, andrew booth.

and orrue war yay, i've been fighting that one all week. played really well. >> mike: 12:23 in the morning and you can't say orrue way? two yards coming up. ten minutes to go. >> cris: i missed the high-five? >> mike: you did. you and tom brady. i stand with mike ferrer. here's zimmer trying to get the cowboys here to come up with a big defensive stand. pittsburgh has been really poor on third downs tonight. one of nine. only need two. harris the back. takes it, takes it, first down, pittsburgh. not as good as where he fell. check this out here. >> cris: we see it so many times

when their knees go down ahead of the fall. where was he when this first, there. >> mike: it looks like it should be past the 47 yard line where the ball is when the knee comes down. >> cris: that mark is pretty close to where i saw it, too. >> mike: yeah, that's about right, yeah. and they bring the sticks from the steelers' side. >> cris: you just forget what a weapon, you know, we see lamar jackson. and now you get a look at justin fields. to have that quarterback, that on third and short, third and two becomes a quarterback run

down for those two guys. and it just, there's so many key plays that come up that they convert that other quarterbacks just deny. >> mike: empty backfield, inside of 9:00 now. gets rid of it just in time. incomplete to jefferson to the 45 yard line. pickup of eight. tyrus wheat was half a foot away. >> cris: here's where you learn if you are justin fields. there is pressure flying off the edge with tyrus wheat. and if he just hesitates for one second, like college quarterbacks and young quarterbacks do sometimes, this is the nfl, two and a half

seconds, it's got to be gone. >> mike: harris. all those bodies. stretched out. cowboys wouldn't let them through. it will be third and one. >> cris: it's turning out to be one of those kind of games. for arthur smith, this is pittsburgh steelers football. and you probably have to believe this would be fourth down territory here. >> mike: just about to ask you. see if that matters or not. it's fields looking to throw, and he's incomplete. ruled incomplete. and heyward could not hang on. so on fourth and one, steelers going to send an extra offensive

lineman out, spencer anderson, and go for it. >> cris: yeah, i think this is the right call. look at the punch, perfect. there's the right hook that finally got home. >> mike: fourth and one. time out. pittsburgh. >> cris: i don't think tomlin liked that two big nose tackles down on either side of his center. he may have been thinking quarterback sneak and did not like it. >> mike: they may take time out, out of the mix with seven 7:30 to go. have you seen this pittsburgh game a thousand times? >> cris: it's what they live for. it's what they practice for. mike tomlin practices these guys

on friday harder than a lot of teams practice on wednesday and thursday. and what they do is they practice a lot of these situations right here, when the toughness matters. when the grit matters. he leaves their pads on for this situation. you can't practice these kind of short-yardage plays without being in pads. we'll see if it pays off here on fourth down. >> mike: let's face it. they're not dynamic on offense. so they're getting a lot of third and one and fourth and one. give it to harris inside, fighting for the yard with overshown. and where he's layin', he's got it. the mark comes in right at the 43. see where they put the football down. and they've got it. first down. mike mccarthy, expression says it all. >> cris: it's just the battle over one yard. and just that second little lean

there by harris ended up being just enough. >> mike: the dallas defense has played a good game. back shoulder, incomplete. oruwariye over there in coverage. >> cris: it's just hard. there's zack martin over there on the bench. hopefully he is fine and okay. but it's so hard for receivers running that rout to understand that they're going to spin their way out-of-bounds, getting too close to that boundary. it happens every day in the national football league. it's a huge mistake. >> mike: they're about five yards away from boswell's field goal range. gets incomplete.

brandon johnson, 25 career catches. elevated off the practice squad. so a field goal from here is 53. >> cris: back in range. that's not what they're thinking here, though. nice job by fields stepping up and through, drawing the defense to him and getting this ball out. you can just watch the game by game of justin fields getting more and more comfortable inside that pocket. >> mike: on third and one. najee harris didn't go there. comes back to pickens. inside the 15 and a flag on the back edge of that. >> cris: you saw him, mike. najee harris wide open. but, was there a pick on that play, too? probably was.

was it discovered? got to see where the flags are. >> mike: conversation over here, he eventually gets it to pickens for 21 yards. >> referee: there were two fouls on the play, both by the defense. offside. number 55, penalty declined. personal foul, out-of-bounds, number 6. the penalty half the distance to the goal is an automatic first down. >> mike: donovan wilson's penalty led on. steelers first and goal with the chance to take the lead. >> cris: there it is. clearly out of bounds. we talk about it all the time. hard to kill these steelers. it just is. this is their brand of football in their building. >> mike: first and goal, pittsburgh.

from the seven. najee harris inside. down for two yards. something going own here. lewis over there for dallas dallas. this crew trying to keep order. 5:20 to go. the play clock down at 22 before they huddle. >> cris: take a look at this on the outside. there's austin, and austin's a feisty dude. obviously, jourdan lewis is, too. for a little guy, that calvin austin is a fighter. >> mike: second and goal, field shoveled.

touchdown, pittsburgh! the interception turns to a touchdown. it is credited as fields' second touchdown pass of the night on that shovel to freiemuth. big extra point. boswell has it. the steelers lead by four with just under 5:00 remaining. >> cris: let's take a look at mason mccormick, their right guard here and the strategic decision he makes to not block here, but to turn it up. and that's what created the touchdown here. mccormick's out and around, no, i'm going to let him go, i'm going to let freiemuth take care of him and block the next guy,

and we have ourselves a touchdown and the lead. >> mike: freiemuth got a contract extension. four years and $48 million. be a big part of this steeler offense going forward, especially with arthur smith as the new offensive coordinator. terry mcauley, we're watching a little bit and seeing dan moore, the left tackle, number 65. >> terry: he can't be clearly more than a yard. and we lose his feet if that back foot is still in that area we've got shaded, he's okay. but it looks like he's about two yards on that shot right there. >> mike: hard to see and read through the bodies as you look through. here's a peek. and there's that right foot. he picks it up.

as the shovel happens. freiemuth works his way through. so now the cowboys, chris. 4:56 to go. they move the ball effectively. they come up with the drive to win this one. off the crossbar. >> cris: let's take a look at the walmart plus sky cam. and t.j. watt, the night he has had. they attacked him everywhere. so wide-out there, responsible for the c gap and the d gap. but it doesn't usually matter, because once he hits that third step and dips and rips, and prescott holds the ball, he's got him. >> mike: zack martin back in for dallas.

and rico dowdle who's run it well, there for six. 74 yards on the night. cowboys closing in on a hundred rushing yards. as martin went back, got some fluids back in there. second and five coming up for dallas. 4:30 to go in regulation. >> melissa: i have a couple updates starting with the cowboys offense. you mentioned zack martin was back in. he had cramps. he said he never cramped before ever. as for guyton, he's questionable with a left knee heavily taped. nick herbig, questionable with a hamstring.

and marvin lea has left the field. >> referee: before the flag for too many pen on the field, time out by pittsburgh. 30-second time out. >> mike: the steelers will be down to just one time out. there you get a look at the dozens. >> cris: people get hurt, it's so easy, who's in, who's not in, who's going to sub or whatever. this is a chance for the dallas cowboys, dak prescott, and you would think ceedee lamb, but really, no catches for him since the first quarter of this game.

>> mike: number 43, dowdle, tucked inside this time. landon roberts, who we have not called, he comes in the game. a run stopper comes in, makes the tackle. >> cris: the defensive coordinator has made a shift. they've been playing two deep safeties so much of the game. not now. now they're back to minkah fitzpatrick in the center of the field and more people down to play the run. >> mike: ceedee. >> cris: you saw the defense make the adjustment to more of the one on one coverage. so the offense makes the adjustment. now i know i've got ceedee against porter. i'm going to take that. now they rotate minkah

fitzpatrick back over again. dak makes an adjustment. >> mike: elliott! watt makes the tackle. the cowboys move the chains with 3:00 on a turning fourth-quarter clock. >> cris: take a look at the line to gain here. ooh. >> mike: down there past the 48, marked just shy of the 47. pressure here. prescott detected. to jordan tolbert, who has six catches on the night. see if dallas, they sub here and

get a play before the two-minute warning. >> cris: so far this is going perfectly, right? in a perfect world situation. but the key thing is you go down and corps. >> mike: lots of field goals earlier. they had a couple of mistakes. down to the 33 yard line. cowboys' offense, maligned for their inability to run the ball in the early portion of this season. getting the job done, as we hit the two-minute warning here in pittsburgh. the steelers beating the cowboys, 17-13. >> cris: here's the adjustment. instead of all the zone runs, you're seeing the two big guys over here, zack martin, steele, and young payton wilson behind him trying to peek around that pile. so they have gone to their old

school dallas cowboys form of running, to heck with those runs, and i agree with this strategy. it fits them much better. >> mike: dowdle up to 89 yards on 18 carries, and that's a career high. and so is the total scrimmage yards, a couple of catches he made, including a 22 yarder in this half. >> cris: i thought the touchdown catch was a really good catch. not only did he have to sort of lean and dive to catch it, he also had to spin on his back. because, if he lands on top of that football, it's probably going to bobble a little bit and not be able to hang onto it. watch him here not only make the catch but slide on his back. that thing remains secure throughout. big time play right there. >> mike: it has changed hands four times tonight. with every score here in this

second half, cowboys and steelers. at the 33. a whole bunch of steelers. 1:50 to go. dallas will not huddle. gain of a yard. >> cris: the steelers starting to fire some of those linebackers down to try to pull those double-team off. >> mike: elliott in for dowdle. helps on watt. throws underneath, incleat. don't know if that was zeke or ceedee. they are all kind of looking at

each other like, for me? for you? >> cris: definitely confusion on the back end. i know there may be some emotions going on, on the football field, on this dallas offense. but ceedee lamb is the guy in this situation, if you get that single coverage, got to find a way to get him involved here. >> mike: third and nine. it's ferguson, the tight end, got the first down, right around the 20 yard line! big jake ferguson keeps the cowboys on the move. 73 seconds to go. >> cris: there's going to be so many crosses in here that ferguson's going to get right behind it, and dak with a terrific throw there to lead him to the outside. you saw the defender break inside. >> mike: inside the ten, down to the four yard line! hunter luepke!

gain of 19! >> cris: boy, dj just missed there. but this hunter luepke has become an amazing story for the dallas cowboys. first t.j. watt off the edge, and, again, dak prescott with no time whatsoever. he sees that right away and had to know right where that check down was. he didn't have time to turn and look. he had to know that luepke was over there and waiting, and what a huge play, again, for hunter luepke. >> mike: great competitors, in the heat of the battle. time out was taken by dallas. 52 seconds remain. >> cris: but, you know, mike, you always say, does the quarterback actually sneak a peek? you bet, when you're talking about t.j. watt, and if he didn't sneak a peek, he want

wasn't going to go back and find that play. as you would expect out of these two teams. championships. >> mike: 52 seconds. first and goal, dallas, looking for the go-ahead score. rico dowdle the back. prescott. at the one yard line, brought down, and out of bounds. that could help the steelers if they get the ball back to save some time. definitely short when the knee was down. time out taken here. >> cris: could have been one of those dangerous plays, that ball

comes loose, and if it had hit that pylon, ooh, i mean, that's close. >> mike: minkah fitzpatrick running over there, going after dak and the ball, as prescott was thinking about extending it across the goal line. score inside the one there. and replay is checking that. there's no dallas-called time out. the ball was out-of-bounds anyway. so no conversation about that. just a full replay booth stopping and checking all of the above. looked pretty simple. the ten-second runoff, but mike

tomlin only has one time out. so many of those calls are now -- >> referee: the ball will be placed at the half-yard line. the runner was in bound. please set the game clock to 47 seconds. we're checking with both teams to see if they want to use a time out to avoid the ten-second runoff. >> mike: they're checking now. cowboys have come out of the huddle and lined up. >> referee: please run the game clock to 37 seconds. neither team has chosen to take a time out to avoid the runoff. the game clock will start on my signal. >> mike: so tomlin's going to keep his one time out. and hockley's letting prescott know exactly that.

it will start when he signals. also, 76 is reported eligible. with all that, second and goal from a half yard away. dallas for the lead. luepke. dak prescott on it. teen out dallas! back to five! oh! >> cris: oh, my gosh, what a hit. >> mike: all the black and gold uniforms, landon roberts over there. >> cris: i think it's landon roberts who's going to take a running start. >> mike: oh, what a play. >> cris: and just time it perfectly. >> mike: wow! >> cris: unbelievable. the odds of actually making contact on that play flying through the air is so remote. >> mike: look where he started,

cris. >> cris: we saw it a little bit in practice. this guy gets put in on the goal line to run and dive kamikaze style and hit that ball on the button. >> mike: dallas has a time out. they have two shots at the end zone here. ceedee lamb in motion. prescott. looking that way. dak throws up the middle. >> cris: great coverage that time by the pittsburgh steelers, and here we go. >> mike: play clock's running down. here we go.

fourth and goal! >> cris: i'm not sure tolbert had the ball. >> mike: you're trying to fight through it. >> referee: time out dallas. their final time out of the half. >> mike: maybe give him the 30 seconds to catch his breath, see if he can stay or get somebody who can do it in there. >> cris: look at this. this is six yards before he gets to the goal line. and then to have to dive over, it's unbelievable. was the ball actually stripped out by anybody else? or just a hit. the helmet got right on the ball. talk about a perfect defensive play. glad i didn't say what came in my mind at that moment. >> mike: at 12:52 in the morning!

it's fourth and goal, and the game's on the line. what a sunday it's been! >> referee: pittsburgh taking their final time out of the half. 30 seconds in length. >> mike: mike tomlin wanted to see what they were going to do. he'll get a chance. when we come back after this game done, it's the chevrolet post game. melissa will interview the stars of the game. cris and i will look ahead. and maybe we'll have the morning weather and traffic. game delayed an hour and a half or so because of a storm that came through. but look at this place. so many fans still here. what a scene. both teams out of time outs. here we go. fourth and goal. prescott.

it caught, touchdown! it's over! even joe's family celebrates as jalen tolbert, who had to step it up because of the injury to brandin cooks comes up with the go-ahead touchdown. now 19-17. two-point game. a field goal was lost earlier when the steelers tried to get a

jump for that purpose. now mccarthy wants to take it at the one. >> cris: becomes an interesting decision. >> mike: go for two? >> cris: you want to have the field goal cushion. >> mike: if boswell can make a long field goal for pittsburgh, steelers use that last time out for defensive purposes. so they're out of them. >> referee: defense, number 26, dallas has chosen to enforce that foul on the try from the 15 to the 10. >> mike: so they'll keep kicking, just from five close. >> cris: wow. this is worth all the mountain dew and coffee we drank. >> mike: two interceptions from prescott, and he comes back with that second touchdown pass.

so aubrey, 28-yard extra point. minkah fitzpatrick. and that could move it five closer. you could also, when this is done, on multiple occasions, see what john hockley's going to say here. >> referee: off side, the five-yard penalty enforced on the try, and a warning to pittsburgh for multiple fouls will result in unsportsmanlike conduct if done again. >> mike: when you try to do it on purpose over and over and over it can fall in the unsportsmanlike conduct, which at this point would be half the distance to the two and a half. so, it gets even shorter for aubrey from 23 yards, the extra point. and he knocks it through to make it a three-point game.

back to the touchdown to jalen tolbert. >> cris: oldest play in the book. going to get the crisscross and the man coverage, trying to trail it. you'll see the traffic in the middle of the field. ceedee right there. just enough congestion to give dak a little bit of room to get that in, and a little nod of the cap to jalen tolbert for hanging in there. obviously, in pain. clears back underneath. dak puts it right on the money, and that was not an easy catch. you could see elliott trying to strip that thing out of there. but strong hands and strong arms and, wow. but that time out now very much does come into play. >> mike: go back to what you said earlier about jalen tolbert. the one guy for me in camp when ceedee was gone, the young guy who hadn't taken all the reps, he did.

he beat elliott. elliott, cam heyward, his 199th game. mike mccarthy's homecoming is seconds away from being a happy one. 20 seconds left. turns it upfield. and picked at the 25 yard line, with 15 seconds remaining. johnson there for dallas on the stop. so the steelers need about 40 yards and 15 seconds with no time outs. and they don't have a time out to take to try to run boswell and company on the field. >> cris: what you obviously are hoping to do, get a deep cross, something across the field and

catch it before you get out-of-bounds here. >> mike: from the 21 yard line, fields has a big arm, looking for space to get rid of it. he does, it is almost intercepted. seven seconds remaining. >> cris: yeah, now it's going to take something pretty weird at this point. justin fields has played well. he's done a lot of good things, but dak prescott, when it mattered most, took his team down the field and's up all the clock. it was a perfect drive. >> mike: they moved the ball much better than the steelers did tonight. 7 seconds to go. pickens.

back to the center. frazier. freiemuth, over the head pass, intended for mccormick is recovered by dallas. and the cowboys win. pickens will have a flag thrown here. jourdan lewis is going after him with good reason. a great job by the officials to defuse something there. in the super bowl, it was pittsburgh versus green bay, was mccarthy then and he gets the win tonight. both these teams are 3-2. >> cris: what the heck's going on? you have to go through the standings to try and figure it all out. >> mike: it is monday, and i'm doing exactly that right now. for those of you who love football, this day started at 9:30 a.m. with the vikings and
