Ravens at Cowboys Recap, Highlights, Final Score, More

The Dallas Cowboys moved to 9-1 on the season after beating the Baltimore Ravens by a score of 27-17 at AT&T Stadium
The Dallas Cowboys finally saw their run game slowed down against the stout Baltimore Ravens defense, but they still did enough to win at home by a score of 27-17. It was the ninth-straight win for the Boys, who own the best record in the NFL.
Baltimore started out moving the ball with ease and jumped out to a 7-0 lead. However, Dak Prescott and the Cowboys offense settled down and started picking apart the weak points. That led to a back-and-forth first half and 10-10 score at halftime.
However, the Cowboys at home came out firing in a big way after the half. Elliott found a bit more success on the ground, but Prescott shined. He was finding Dez Bryant, Cole Beasley, and Jason Witten for big chunks of yardage all day long. With their defense also stepping up, the Cowboys couldn’t be stopped in the second half, scoring 17 points in the final 30 minutes to secure the win.
Baltimore falls to 5-5 on the season, but they are still tied for first in the weak AFC North. As mentioned, Dallas sits atop the NFC and the league at 9-1.
Three Stars
Dak Prescott, QB Dallas Cowboys — After starting the game just 4-of-10 passing, Prescott settled down and took over. He finished with 301 yards and three touchdowns on the day.
Dez Bryant, WR Dallas Cowboys — The last two games for Dez Bryant have been amazing. A day after learning of his father’s passing, Bryant recorded six receptions for 116 yards and a touchdown last week against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Again facing an AFC North foe, Dez went off with six receptions for 80 yards and two scores.
Steve Smith, Sr., WR Baltimore Ravens— In what ended up being a losing effort, Smith recorded his 1,000th career reception. He finished with eight receptions for 99 yards and a score. This game could have gotten out of hand if not for his work.
