What Happened in the Last Seven Seconds?
Here’s the short version: Dallas tied it, then Baltimore won it with no time left.
With 23 seconds to go, Ravens cornerback Nate Wiggins was flagged for pass interference on CeeDee Lamb. It was a penalty for grabbing a receiver before the ball arrives. It gave Dallas first and goal on the Baltimore 2. After an incomplete pass and a false start, the Cowboys settled for a 23-yard field goal from Brandon Aubrey. They led 31-31, with seven seconds left.
Then came the drive of the season. Lamar Jackson fired a 27-yard pass to Zay Flowers and called a timeout with one second remaining. Loop, who missed a big kick last season that would have sent the Ravens to the playoffs, sent the 56-yarder inside the left upright.
How Did the Game Swing Before That?
The Cowboys started quickly
Dallas led 10-0. A sack by Ravens linebacker Roquan Smith on third-and-goal limited the Cowboys to a field goal on their first drive, but a failed fourth-down try by Baltimore handed Dallas good field position.
Derrick Henry and the Ravens hit back
Baltimore scored on three straight drives to lead 17-13 at half-time. Running back Derrick Henry scored twice, and the Ravens finished with 192 rushing yards on 38 carries.
A blocked kick and a fumble changed the mood
Safety Keondre Jackson blocked a 59-yard Cowboys field goal attempt. Earlier, tight end Jake Ferguson fumbled a shovel pass. Lamar Jackson then found Chris Moore for a 4-yard touchdown to make it 24-13.
Dallas roared back
Ferguson recorded a 19-yard touchdown, while Lamb grabbed a two-point conversion to score 24-21. Dallas made up a distance of 96 yards, including a 49-yard pass to Lamb, and KaVontae Turpin’s 9-yard run sent the Cowboys ahead 28-24. Rookie tight end Matthew Hibner grabbed his first NFL touchdown with one and a half minutes to go to make the Ravens ahead at 31-28.
Who Played Best in Ravens vs Cowboys?
| Player | Team | Key numbers |
| Lamar Jackson | Ravens | 15 of 20 passes, 186 yards, 2 touchdowns |
| Derrick Henry | Ravens | 2 rushing touchdowns |
| Tyler Loop | Ravens | 56-yard winning field goal |
| Dak Prescott | Cowboys | 25 of 40, 276 yards, 1 touchdown, no interceptions |
| CeeDee Lamb | Cowboys | 7 catches, 112 yards |
| George Pickens | Cowboys | 82 receiving yards |
Dallas actually had more total yards (415 to 378) and Prescott didn’t throw an interception. But the Cowboys lost a fumble, had a kick blocked, and gave up 10 points in the final 90 seconds. Baltimore had no turnovers.
Was the Pass Interference Call Fair?
It depends on who you ask. Broadcasters Jim Nantz and J.J. Watt were not happy with certain calls, while Cowboys fans were apoplectic. Meanwhile, critics of Dallas blamed the team itself, citing a poor play near the goal line and the decision to kick off to Baltimore, which gave the Ravens a touchback and a first down at the Cowboys’ 35-yard line.
I think it’s a good call. Dallas was out of timeouts and had the ball at the 2 with 23 seconds to go. They eventually kicked a field goal to win the game.
What Does This Result Mean for Both Teams?
For Baltimore, it was a demonstration that the ground game continues to be a winning formula, as Henry and the Ravens rolled to a 192-yard performance on the ground and Lamar Jackson was dialed in when the pressure was at its peak. However, the nine infractions that were called for 78 yards still need to be cleaned up.
For Dallas, it was a harsh lesson in finishing, as despite a strong effort from Prescott and his receivers, the Cowboys were unable to put the game away and record their second loss, dropping them to 1-2 on the year. Injuries were also a concern for Dallas as they head into a busy October, as both Locke and Jalen Thompson left the game with injuries to their foot and hamstring, respectively.
What Happens Next?
The Ravens host the Tennessee Titans on Sunday 4 October (6pm UK time), with the Ravens being overwhelming favourites, with an 86% chance of victory, according to SportRadar data, and the Cowboys have a long flight home and lots of questions to answer.
