The Cowboys snapped a 2-game losing streak with a 20-15 win in Week 4 over the New York Giants, pushing on the spread and going under the 45-point total. QB Dak Prescott was efficient, completing 22 of 27 passes for 221 yards and 2 TDs, including 98 yards and 1 score to WR CeeDee Lamb. However, the Dallas run game continues to struggle, averaging just 75.3 yards per game, lowest in the NFL, raising concerns as they move forward.

The Steelers were upset 27-24 by the Colts as 2.5-point road favorites. QB Justin Fields delivered his best performance with 312 passing yards and a TD, along with 55 rushing yards and 2 scores. WR George Pickens had his 1st 100-yard receiving game (7 catches for 113 yards).

Cowboys at Steelers picks and predictions

Prediction

Steelers 20, Cowboys 13

Moneyline

PASS.

The Steelers (-145) were humbled last week in Indianapolis. They will take advantage of the prime-time game and beat a very depleted Cowboys team. But I’ll take my wager to the spread.

Against the spread

BET STEELERS -2.5 (-110).

Pittsburgh’s loss to the Colts featured some promising moments, with 404 yards of offense and 23 first downs. A slow start and a couple of turnovers cost them, but they’re in a good spot for a bounce-back performance.

Meanwhile, Dallas didn’t exactly shine against the Giants. They had 11 penalties and just 293 yards of total offense, including only 80 rushing yards. There defense is now riddled with injuries and will be without Parsons and  Lawrence for this game. I like Pittsburgh to cover here at home.

Over/Under

BET UNDER 44 (-110).

BERKELEY, Calif. — Cam Ward threw a 5-yard touchdown pass to Elijah Arroyo with 26 seconds left and No. 8 Miami roared back from a 25-point deficit in the second half to beat California 39-38 on Saturday night.

Ward led four straight touchdown drives to end the game and spoil what looked like the most monumental day in years for the Golden Bears (3-2, 0-2 ACC), who hosted ESPN’s “College GameDay” for the first time and were on the verge of their second win over a top 10 team in the past 21 seasons.

Instead, Ward made sure the rare sellout crowd at Memorial Stadium went home unhappy after overcoming a 35-10 deficit in the third quarter. That gave the Hurricanes (6-0, 2-0) a second straight dramatic victory after needing a replay review to hold off Virginia Tech last week.

Cal head coach Justin Wilcox, when asked afterward about his team’s mood in the locker room, said, “It’s as bad as you can imagine.”

“Football is a humbling game,” Wilcox said. “We had every opportunity to win that game, obviously. We didn’t get it done. So, every individual has to own it. I think this is a pivotal moment for the team. I hope that all coaches, players, administrators, everybody involved will be proud of how they responded in a month or two months or six months or even a year. In this moment right now.”

Ward threw an 18-yard TD pass to Isaiah Horton with 10:28 left to cut it to 38-25 and then scrambled in from 24 yards out to make it a six-point game with 4:04 to play.

The Hurricanes forced a punt after being spared a potential targeting call on instant replay and Ward then hit Xavier Restrepo on a 77-yard pass on the first play on the ensuing drive to get Miami into the red zone.

A personal foul backed up the Hurricanes, but Ward converted a third-and-20 on a short pass to Joshisa Trader that went for 22 yards down to the 3. Two plays later, Ward found Arroyo on a jump pass that gave Miami the lead.

Ward finished 33-for-53 for 437 yards with two touchdown passes and a TD run, overcoming a pick-6 that helped put Miami in the big hole in the third quarter.

Fernando Mendoza delivered several big plays against the team he grew up cheering for as a kid in Miami but it wasn’t enough.

Mendoza threw a 57-yard TD pass to Jack Endries in the first quarter and had a 51-yarder to Trond Grizzell that set up Jaydn Ott’s 5-yard run that gave Cal a 14-7 lead.

Ott scored again on 66-yard catch and run on a fourth-and-1 midway through the second quarter and Mendoza threw a 59-yard pass to Jaivian Thomas in the third quarter that set up Chandler Rogers’ 9-yard TD run.

But Cal punted on its first two drives of the fourth quarter before Mendoza threw an interception in the closing seconds to end it.

The Associated Press contributed to this report.

An off-duty officer with the Atlanta Police Department was shot and killed by one of his neighbors after he allegedly broke into a house near St. Andrews Golf Club in Douglas County, Georgia, early Friday morning, officials said. 

The officer, identified as Aubree Horton, had been with the Atlanta Police Department since 2015 and was most recently with the Fugitive Unit, the department told Fox News Digital. 

Horton was also just honored with an Investigator of the Year award late last month, according to FOX 5 Atlanta. 

“We are working closely with the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office to learn more about what occurred as they investigate the incident,” the department said in a statement shared with Fox News Digital. 

Surveillance video showed Horton appeared to be experiencing a “mental health episode or (was) under the influence of narcotics,” FOX 5 reported. 

“When he gained entrance, the homeowner produced a firearm in self-defense and shot the individual,” Capt. Jon Mauney of the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office told reporters, according to FOX 5. 

Horton lived just a few streets away from the house he allegedly broke into, the station reported. 

Neighbors were shocked. 

“It’s right here in your neighborhood and a golfing community and a place where you really think this would never happen,” one neighbor told FOX 5. 

Investigators don’t yet know why Horton broke into the home.
