The Ravens beat a well-rested Dallas Cowboys squad by the score of 34-17 to advance to (7-5) on the season and keep their playoff hopes alive. It was a relatively uninspired performance from the Ravens defense — one that was on the field for 77 plays and 32:18 while giving up 388 yards of offense to the Andy Dalton led (3-9) NFC East cellar dwellers. And while there were weaknesses on display that must be addressed, the game’s ultimate outcome never seemed to be in doubt. And that’s a good thing.
Once again, the Ravens will have a short week of preparation as they get set to take on the Browns this Monday Night.
