Cowboys HC Mike McCarthy Drops Game-Changing Announcement Ahead of Must-Win Battle vs. Ravens
The Dallas Cowboys and Baltimore Ravens are set for a pivotal clash in Week 3 that feels like a “must-win” for both franchises. After a humiliating 44-19 loss at home to the New Orleans Saints, the Cowboys are under immense pressure to bounce back. Meanwhile, the Ravens, who were the top seed in the AFC just a season ago, find themselves winless at 0-2, desperately needing to avoid falling into an 0-3 hole.
As tensions rise for this highly anticipated matchup, Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy delivered some significant news for Dallas’ offense. Tight end Jake Ferguson, who missed the game against New Orleans due to a knee injury, is expected to return to the lineup on Sunday. According to McCarthy, Ferguson “looked good” in practice and is anticipated to be a full participant, providing a major boost to the Cowboys’ offensive attack.
Ferguson has been a rising star for Dallas, proving to be a reliable target for quarterback Dak Prescott. His return could be the difference in a game where every offensive play will matter. Across his career, Ferguson has made an impact with 93 catches, 950 receiving yards, and seven touchdowns, and his presence will be crucial as Dallas looks to shake off last week’s disastrous showing.
This Week 3 matchup isn’t just a battle for a win—it’s a turning point for two teams with high expectations and early-season struggles. Both the Cowboys and Ravens face the pressure of performing with their seasons teetering on the edge of uncertainty.
