The Baltimore Ravens find themselves at a critical juncture in the season, starting 0-2 for the first time since 2015. Facing a must-win game against the Dallas Cowboys, the stakes are high as no team has won the Super Bowl after starting 0-3. Both teams enter this matchup desperate for a victory, especially the Cowboys after a heavy defeat to the New Orleans Saints.

Head Coach John Harbaugh emphasized the need for a focused week of practice to tackle Dallas' formidable defense, spearheaded by elite pass rusher Micah Parsons. The Ravens aim to reinvigorate Derrick Henry's performance against a struggling Cowboys defense, while the secondary must contain the impact of standout receiver CeeDee Lamb.
