Key matchups of the week:
Cowboys @ Ravens – The Cowboys have never beaten the Ravens (0-3) and things are not looking much better for them this week. The Ravens defense has shown vulnerability so far this season, but a porous Cowboys offensive line could be just what the doctor ordered. Dallas quarterback Tony Romo will have to make smarter decisions than his last outing. The Cowboys need to get running back DeMarco Murray involved early in the game. Murray averaged over 100 yards in his last 2 games against the AFC. Dallas is 4-0 when Murray has rushed for 130 yards or more.
Bengals @ Browns – This in-state rivalry has been a one-sided affair lately with the Bengals winning 13 of the last 16 games. Bengal quarterback Andy Dalton has a career 114 quarterback rating against the Browns for a 3-0 record. The Browns have a rookie quarterback, Brandon Weedon, and a rookie running back, Trent Richardson, who each posted career-high yardage against the Bengals last month.
Patriots @ Seahawks – The Patriots lead the NFL with a 33 point per game average. The Seahawks have allowed the 2nd fewest points in the NFL. This game pits the top offense against the top defense.
