Week two was not kind to either of these two teams. Baltimore and Dallas were combined 15.5-point favorites, and both lost outright. The Cowboys were outclassed from the beginning to the surging Saints, while the Ravens blew a late lead as the biggest favorite of the week. Below, we will take a look at the Ravens Cowboys preview and add a best bet to sweat on Sunday afternoon.
Baltimore Ravens at Dallas Cowboys Preview and Predictions
The Ravens did not have plans of being 0-2. They were a trendy underdog pick on the road in week two and were massive favorites in week two. When you take a look at the game, they truly did not play all that bad. A few bad decisions and bad breaks cost them the wins. The Ravens are not used to being in a hole after two weeks of the season.
I know the Cowboys lost but this was sooo smooth from @_CeeDeeThree 😤

Dallas played one very good game and one awful game. They truly could not have looked worse at home against the Saints. I am not ready to call New Orleans and the elite team yet; I believe Dallas just had an off game. Although Dak has not looked like the best quarterback in the league, he does look like he has a newfound confidence.
Both of these teams have electric offenses and defenses that can make game-changing plays. The short spread tells us that this can easily go one way or another.
First Half Over 23.5
Both of these teams are going to come out with a vengeance after what happened in week two. These two teams have hopes of winning the Super Bowl and are surely not going to let two bad weeks ruin those dreams. The full game total is set at 48.5. The first half number is a lot more enticing. 23.5 is the first half total and I see various routes for this to go over the number. Look for Dak and Lamar to come out hot and feed off each other’s energy. Indoor games always call for fireworks!
Ezekiel Elliott ANytime Touchdown +140
The Cowboys and Elliott have a lot to play for this week. After breaking down the Baltimore Ravens at Dallas Cowboys Preview and Predictions, I expect Elliot and this Dallas offense to come out with a vengeance and try to be the better backfield this week. Elliot knows Henry is pounding the rock in by the goal line, and he knows he still has that in him.
