Aligning Pickens among 3 Cowboys Keys to beating Ravens in Week 3

For the Cowboys to beat the Ravens this week in brazil, they'll need to do a few things that won't come easy.

To secure a victory against the Baltimore Ravens in Week 3, the Dallas Cowboys will need to focus on three key aspects. First, they must stop Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson from scrambling. Despite his 6-foot-3, 252-pound frame, Jackson has been unstoppable, rushing for 212 yards with a 70% success rate. Dallas' defense has struggled against scrambles, often failing to hold the pocket or control interior lanes.

Next, the Cowboys need to effectively utilize rookie linebacker Jaishawn Barham. While Barham's impact has been inconsistent, he's shown promise as a game-changing force. By employing Barham creatively, Dallas may be able to counteract Derrick Henry's formidable running ability. Finally, aligning Cowboys cornerback George Pickens with Baltimore's top defensive backs is crucial.

By doing so, Dallas can exploit matchup advantages and open up opportunities for the offense. It's an uphill battle, but if the Cowboys can focus on these three keys, they may just pull off an upset.
