Sunday Night Football: How to Watch Cowboys vs. Steelers Tonight

The 2-2 Cowboys take on the 3-1 Steelers on Sunday night. The Steelers' strong start to the season is largely the result of their vaunted defense, led by T.J. Watt. The Cowboys will need to give Dak Prescott enough time to throw and find CeeDee Lamb for big plays. On the flip side, the Dallas defense, led by Micah Parsons, will need to find a way to contain quarterback Justin Fields, who has been steady in place of Russell Wilson and is particularly dangerous when he escapes the pocket and looks to run.

The Cowboys-Steelers game kicks off tonight at 8:20 p.m. ET (5:20 p.m. PT). It's available to watch nationally on NBC or stream on Peacock.

With YouTube and YouTube TV the exclusive home of NFL Sunday Ticket, along with games also streaming on Paramount Plus, Peacock and ESPN Plus, there's lots for NFL fans to keep track of this season. Check out our picks for the best live TV streaming services for NFL fans in 2024.
