NFL Fans Call Out Prescott, Cowboys for Slow Start in Loss to Lamar Jackson, Ravens

Sam Hodde/ The Dallas Cowboys had a great opportunity to claim a marquee win in Week 3. Instead, the Baltimore Ravens left AT&T Stadium very happy.

Baltimore won 28-25 after dominant performances from Lamar Jackson and Derrick Henry. Jackson went 11-of-13 for 173 yards and a touchdown in the air while also adding 10 carries for 75 yards and a touchdown on the ground.

Henry's day was even stronger, as he dashed for 151 yards and two touchdowns on 25 carries. Baltimore led the game 28-6 heading into the final quarter but a late charge from Dallas made it competitive.

The Cowboys defense allowed 456 total yards from the Ravens offense and allowed Baltimore to possess the ball for 34:45 seconds.

Dak Prescott went 28-of-51 for 379 yards and two touchdowns in the game, but more production early could have made the final outcome swing Dallas' way.

Fans took to social media to criticize Prescott and the Cowboy's slow start and debate whether his hefty contract is worth it.

The Cowboys still have plenty of time to improve the record and the losses have come to teams that could still be playing when the playoffs start. Still, it was the second straight week where the offense failed to grab a lead early and the defense allowed the other team to have a hot start.
