That&#8217;s why I&#8217;m taking the under on a teased-up total. Add a Justin Fields and Jake Ferguson prop to make up a nice +460 SGP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Check out my Cowboys vs. Steelers same-game parlay predictions for Week 5 below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cowboys vs. Steelers same-game parlay predictions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Parlay: Under 46.5 points + Fields over 179.5 passing yards + Ferguson over 39.5 receiving yards (+460)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Under 46.5 points (-159):<\/strong> Pittsburgh went well under this total (25.7 points\/game) in its first three outings before last week&#8217;s 51-point outburst with the Indianapolis Colts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"cacheembed:96561\">Embed: #96561<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Anthony Richardson threw for 71 yards on 3-of-4 passing before picking up a hip injury. Joe Flacco stepped in and continued to slice up the Steelers&#8217; defence for 168 more yards and two touchdowns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was an uninspiring first quarter for Pittsburgh, allowing 14 points. But the defence showed out after that, holding the Colts to 10 points for the rest of the contest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Everything in me is screaming that it was an outlier performance for the Pittsburgh defence. I expect life to be tough for Dak Prescott on Sunday night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dallas has gone over this total in three of its four games but totalled just 35 points with the New York Giants on Thursday Night Football last week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This week&#8217;s visit with the Steelers should emulate that gritty primetime atmosphere. Their defence has allowed the fourth-fewest yards (284.0) and second-fewest points (13.3) per game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Other parlay picks<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Fields over 179.5 passing yards (-143): <\/strong>In our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.northstarbets.ca\/sportsbook\/news\/article\/nfl-week-5-ats-picks-and-predictions-2024\">Week 5 ATS picks<\/a>, I&#8217;m choosing the Steelers to cover a -2.5 spread and a lot of my reasoning lies with Fields.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"cacheembed:96564\">Embed: #96564<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Week 3, Fields threw for 245 yards against the Los Angeles Chargers and followed that up with a 312-yard performance vs. the Colts in Week 4.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Cowboys&#8217; defence has been nothing special through four games as it allows the ninth-most total yards per game (364.5) and the 13th-most passing yards (209.5).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Three of the four QBs to play Dallas this season have surpassed this mark.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Ferguson over 39.5 receiving yards (-162): <\/strong>Ferguson has developed into the second option for Prescott.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"cacheembed:96565\">Embed: #96565<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite missing a game, he is second on the team in receptions (15) and third in receiving yards (159).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With T.J. Watt and the Steelers&#8217; defence applying heavy pressure and the heightened focus on CeeDee Lamb, Ferguson should be a safety net for his QB.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The tight end has cleared this total in consecutive weeks since returning from injury and is averaging 53 receiving yards per game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Picks made at 9:34 a.m. on 10\/06\/24.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Dallas Cowboys&#8217; electric offence meets the Pittsburgh Steelers&#8217; pesty defence for Sunday Night Football.
