Power Rankings Roundup: Cowboys' brutal loss has surprise effect on Week 4 standing
Week 3's last-second loss was devastating to Cowboys Nation, but the team showed enough to actually boost their standing in most power rankings.
In a surprising turn of events, the Dallas Cowboys' last-second defeat to the Baltimore Ravens did not cause significant disruption to the team's standing in most power rankings. In fact, the Ravens' narrow loss to the Cowboys even resulted in a boost in their own ranking in several outlets. The primary blame for the loss was placed on head coach Brian Schottenheimer and his team's questionable play-calling and clock management decisions in the game's final minutes.
While some observers may have expected this outcome from Schottenheimer, who is just entering his 20th NFL season, the loss could still have a lasting impact on the Cowboys' season. Despite the setback, the overall consensus among power rankings suggests that the Cowboys are still a formidable team heading into Week 4.
