Ravens vs. Cowboys, Week 3

Ravens vs. Cowboys, Week 3

Important storylines

Can the Ravens stop All-Pro linebacker Micah Parsons from ruining their day?

Baltimore's offensive line struggled to keep Chris Jones and Maxx Crosby from pressuring Jackson. Parsons is a dangerous pass rusher who attacks from a variety of positions and consistently pressures quarterbacks despite frequent double coverage. A big game from Parsons could mean a long day for the Ravens offense.

Will Derrick Henry destroy the Cowboys’ run defense?

Saints running back Alvin Kamara scored four touchdowns in Week 2 and had a great day (20 carries, 115 yards) against Dallas' banged-up defense. This will be a homecoming of sorts for Henry, who lives in the Dallas area during the offseason. A standout performance from Henry could turn this game in Baltimore's favor by neutralizing Parsons and keeping the Cowboys' offense off the field.

Can the Ravens pass defense hold up against the Cowboys?

Baltimore's defense has allowed the most passing yards in the NFL over the past two weeks (257 yards per game). That's amazing for a Ravens secondary that includes proven players like Marlon Humphrey, Kyle Hamilton, Brandon Stephens and Marcus Williams. Quarterback Dak Prescott and top receiver CeeDee Lamb have been watching footage all week, studying what the Kansas City Chiefs and Las Vegas Raiders have done to Baltimore. The Ravens need to find a solution to contain the Cowboys' air attack.
