**Prediction time- Playing back-back Top 10 teams at the start of the season isn’t ideal but that’s what Pitt has to deal with. Instead of being a negative, I think it’s going to benefit Pitt.
Fans might not like it but I think Pitt should have the same offensive game plan as last week which would be a ball control offense. If they try and get in a shooting match with the Cowboys they’ll lose. The thing that has to change this week is scoring touchdowns when in the red zone.
Another MUST for Pitt is to pressure quarterback Mason Rudolph. They need to get him uncomfortable back there. If he’s allowed to sit in the pocket and scan the field, Pitt’s defense will be in trouble.
