Romo remains supportive of Prescott, Cowboys
The Bears were shut out in the second half.
Brown claims he had much respect for Smith before the game, but lost all of it by the time the game was over. That’s not a knock on Smith who is an incredible story, but just a simple fact about the Ravens.
“You’ve got to give them credit”, Flacco said. The Ravens’ run game did the rest. Once again, that was proven correct against the Ravens. We’ve played them this year.
There was a great deal made this past week of Tony Romo’s news conference/soliloquy, when among other things, he symbolically passed the Dallas Cowboys’ quarterback job to rookie Dak Prescott. They used a heavy package to slow Elliott and ran twists and stunts in the front seven. Out of all the defensive backs, he is the most impressive from the game. Eventually, it will come down to playmakers.
Something will have to give in the Sunday Night Football matchup, seeing how the Green Bay Packers have a awful record as an underdog and the Washington Redskins are not much better as the favorite.
The Ravens used their latest new alignment to pound the ball with running backs Terrance West (42 yards, eight carries, touchdown) and Kenneth Dixon (40 yards, six carries), who combined for 58 yards on a six-play, 90-yard drive that ended with West’s 18-yard touchdown run behind blocks from Ducasse and fullback Kyle Juszczyk.
“It’s one more step to where we want to be, ” said Elliott, who has 1,102 yards. Play actions, boots – they executed well.
Most importantly, it was the third consecutive scoring drive for the Cowboys as they began to sort out the Baltimore defense.

That’s because they have playmakers. In the end, Baltimore made too many mistakes, including 10 penalties for 116 yards. Their next three games will all be played at 4:25 p.m. ET or later, ensuring all eyes will be on the Cowboys as we inch closer to football in January. The Ravens certainly were no cake walk for the favorited Cowboys. The Ravens marched right down and kicked a 46-yard field goal to take the lead, but with just 1:37 remaining in the quarter, Prescott was able to get his side into field goal range as well. Then there were the high-percentage throws underneath to Cole Beasley and Jason Witten, plus a smart single coverage shot to Brice Butler. The two hooked up for two touchdowns, while Bryant had six catches for 80 yards overall.
Since when has that stopped him.
Smith’s replacement, corner back Shareece Wright continued to struggle in the game. They didn’t care that the Ravens were smothering them early.
The Ravens did find their groove in the first quarter and went with a strategy uncommon for the fifth-worst rushing offense in the National Football League by involving running backs Kenneth Dixon and Terrance West. There is no Aqib Talib at cornerback. “But until you see it for yourself, then you’re just, ‘calm down, ‘ but it’s hard because he keeps yapping after every play”.
STEELERS 24, BROWNS 9: Le’Veon Bell scored on a 1-yard run after time expired in the first half, and Pittsburgh (5-5) had eight sacks as it snapped a four-game losing streak with a victory at Cleveland (0-11). It’s been that way for years now.
Baltimore is the kind of team that should give the Cowboys trouble. One major difference was that the Cowboys had almost an 11-minute advantage in time of possession. That speaks to Dallas’ dominance rather than a fault of the Ravens.
