The Ravens face a true road test on Sunday against the Dallas Cowboys

One of the most intriguing games this week in the NFL features a match-up of two division leaders. The Baltimore Ravens sit at 5-4 and are riding a two game division win streak. They sit atop of a disappointing AFC North, who will most likely only see one team make the playoffs this season. The Ravens face a tough end of the season schedule, but control their own destiny. A win against the Cowboys this Sunday can solidify themselves as AFC playoff contenders and give them a whirlwind of momentum going forward.

The Dallas Cowboys come in at a scorching 8-1 and hold a two game lead over the New York Giants in the NFC East. They are playing the best football in the NFL right now and are fighting for the #1 overall seen in the NFC. Tony Romo and DeMarco Murray are a thing of the past and have been replaced by two fantastic rookies in Dak Presscott and Ezekiel Elliot. A win against the Ravens would avoid another 8-8 season and would give Cowboy’s fans a sigh of relief.
