The Dallas Cowboys’ 1-2 start has brought renewed attention to the team’s coaching staff after a late loss to the Baltimore Ravens in Brazil. The defeat was decided on the game’s final play, and coverage from Blogging The Boys said coaching has been a concern in both of Dallas’ losses this season.

The Cowboys had a chance to take control near the goal line but did not run the ball during the final series. The possession ended with two incomplete passes, a Dak Prescott scramble and a false-start penalty on Terence Steele. Running back Williams did not receive a carry during that sequence.

The loss also extended a stretch in which Prescott is still seeking his first victory against a non-division opponent since last Thanksgiving. Dallas also dealt with injuries during the game, including setbacks at safety.

Jalen Thompson and P.J. Locke are expected to miss more than four weeks, according to comments cited from the Cowboys. Malik Hooker could have a chance to return this week. The team is examining ways to address the safety position while Thompson and Locke recover.

Rookie linebacker Jaishawn Barham was identified as a positive development for Dallas. He made two fourth-quarter stops against the run, including a fourth-down goal-line tackle of Henry for a loss that returned possession to the Cowboys. Blogging The Boys compiled the coverage and analysis following the Ravens game.
