Is that football you smell? Why yes, yes it is. Preseason football is here as the Dallas Cowboys face the Pittsburgh Steelers in the annual Hall of Fame game. The NFL shortened the preseason to three games starting this season, but since the Cowboys will be playing in this game, they will get four preseason games.
Given the injury to Dak Prescott, he will obviously not be playing tonight. But even if healthy, it is very unlikely he would have seen snaps in this game. Expect very few starters to see time in the game, in fact, the Cowboys have already left 16 players behind.

Expect plenty of down-roster players to see extensive time in this game. It will be ragged, and not really memorable, but it will be one thing - football!

Game Preview
Every week we will be putting together a preview show for the upcoming Dallas Cowboys game on the Blogging The Boys YouTube Channel. During the preview we will discuss the biggest storylines, highlight some things to watch during our Film Room segment, and speak with somebody who covers the opposing team to get an idea on what Dallas is up against.
During the preseason we will have on members of the media that cover the Cowboys since that is our primary focus, but as noted we will switch to opponents when the regular season arrives.
You can watch our preview show for the HOF game right here. Please make sure to subscribe to our channel (which you can do right here) so that you don’t miss any of our videos!
