Ravens vs. Cowboys: 4 Ravens who must step up in Brazil

Sunday’s showdown with Dallas may be decided by the Ravens who aren't generating many headlines

The Baltimore Ravens have been reflecting on recent performances, identifying areas for improvement after a less than stellar game. The focus lies on specific players who must step up to secure a victory in their upcoming match against the Dallas Cowboys in Brazil.

Firstly, guard Vega Ioane has shown potential but needs to improve his run-blocking and pass protection. His performance against the New Orleans Saints revealed significant room for growth, requiring further development before facing the formidable Dallas defense.

Secondly, linebacker Calais Campbell has not been able to capitalize on his leadership role due to a lack of impactful plays. Missing tackles and failing to contribute in crucial moments highlight the need for increased production, especially against a Dallas defense known for their pressure and pass rush.

Thirdly, safety Malaki Starks, despite receiving high expectations, has encountered challenges with targeting and completion rates from opposing quarterbacks. With Dallas boasting a formidable passing attack, Starks must convert his potential into tangible results to make a difference in the Ravens' defensive game plan.

Lastly, wide receiver LaJohntay Wester, who has been stepping in for injured teammates, must elevate his game to provide consistent support. With the potential loss of Rashod Bateman, Wester could be a critical factor in the Ravens' offensive strategy. He will need to deliver reliable plays to keep the Cowboys at bay.

All these players possess the ability to turn around their performances and significantly contribute to the Ravens' quest for a crucial win.
