The Dallas Cowboys had a great opportunity to pull off a spectacular win in Week 3. Instead, the Baltimore Ravens left AT&T Stadium very happy.

Baltimore won 28-25 behind dominant performances from Lamar Jackson and Derrick Henry. Jackson completed 11 of 13 passes for 173 yards and a touchdown through the air, and he also had 10 carries for 75 yards and a touchdown on the ground.

Henry's day was even better, rushing for 151 yards and two touchdowns on 25 carries. Baltimore led the game 28-6 heading into the final quarter, but a late rush by Dallas made it even more exciting.

The Cowboys defense allowed a total of 456 yards to the Ravens offense and gave Baltimore possession of the ball for 34:45 seconds.

Dak Prescott finished the game 28 of 51 passing for 379 yards and two touchdowns, but a better early performance could have tipped the final score in Dallas' favor.

Fans took to social media to criticize Prescott and the Cowboy's slow start and debate whether his lavish contract is worth the money.

I hope people finally stop calling Cowboys fans followers, because not a soul would choose to

The Cowboys still have plenty of time to improve their record, and the losses came against teams that may still be playing when the playoffs begin. Still, it was the second week in a row where the offense failed to get an early lead and the defense allowed the other team to get off to a good start.

Dallas will look to change that in Week 4 when the team faces the New York Giants. Both teams enter this game 1-2, with the only wins coming against the Cleveland Browns.
