Dallas Cowboys Seek Redemption Against Baltimore Ravens

Dallas Cowboys Vs Baltimore Ravens 2024

The Dallas Cowboys face the Baltimore Ravens in a crucial Week 3 matchup at AT&T Stadium on Sunday. The Cowboys, sporting a 1-1 record, are eager to establish a winning streak after a disappointing start. The Ravens, currently 0-2, are desperately in need of a win to avoid historical setbacks.

Quarterback Lamar Jackson leads the Ravens, who feature a robust rushing attack that promises to challenge the Cowboys’ defense. Micah Parsons, a key figure for Dallas, and his defensive teammates are set to prove that their recent setbacks were anomalies.

Statistically, no team has ever won a Super Bowl after starting 0-3, a fact that adds urgency to Baltimore’s situation. Nevertheless, Dallas is equally motivated, understanding the difficulty of climbing back from a 1-2 record. The Cowboys aim to gather momentum before their upcoming divisional game against the New York Giants.

History was made early in the game when Dallas Cowboys kicker Brandon Aubrey kicked a 65-yard field goal, the longest in team history, trailing by a narrow margin of 7-3 following Lamar Jackson’s initial touchdown run.

Analysts from NFL.com predominantly predict a Ravens victory, albeit in a close contest. Conversely, USA TODAY experts lean towards a narrow Cowboys win. Observers from Austin American-Statesman, such as Tony Catalina, anticipate a bounce-back performance from the Cowboys, highlighting the team’s historical resilience under coach Mike McCarthy.

The Cowboys’ recent struggles, including a humbling loss to the New Orleans Saints, are partly mitigated by their advantageous dome setting at AT&T Stadium, ensuring weather does not influence the game conditions.

Meanwhile, Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott, continuing to feel the weight of his extensive contract, aims to enhance his performance after tallying 472 passing yards, two touchdowns, and two interceptions against the Saints.

The Ravens will look to leverage Derrick Henry, who has garnered 130 rushing yards and two touchdowns this season, against a Dallas defense that recently struggled to contain Alvin Kamara.
