Dallas Cowboys head coach Brian Schottenheimer isn’t taking the Baltimore Ravens’ loss lightly. The Dallas Cowboys have now had two preseason games, and both have yielded unfavorable results, with the 31-13 loss to the Baltimore Ravens stinging a little more than it should at this time of year.
Cowboys head coach Brian Schottenheimer did not give backup QB Joe Milton III a vote of confidence after Saturday's loss to the Ravens.
A RLINGTON, Texas -- Another week, another mostly rough start for the Dallas Cowboys offense led by backup quarterback Joe Milton in a 31-13 defeat against the Baltimore Ravens. He finished with 122 yards and an interception on 9 of 18 passing, and he was replaced by Will Grier with just over nine minutes left to play in the game.
Yes, it is preseason, but we wanted to see an improvement from last week’s game, and we didn’t get it. Just 176 total yards to 399, the Cowboys only had two third-down conversions from 11 attempts, only ran 47 plays, and gave up 148 rushing yards.
