The shocking part was they did not appear to be any changes from the Saints game to the Ravens game. They played exactly the same defense and got run over again.
If they really wanted to stop the run they could do it. They could play 5 DL like the Eagles do. Or by committing more than just the front 7, run blitzing is a thing everywhere else but Dallas apparently. Or how about the radical idea of playing Kneeland at RDE and Parsons at OLB? It should come as no surprise the last 2 weeks teams have run directly at Parson the majority of the time as he cannot shed the run blocking as easily as he can the pass blocking. Kneeland eating those blocks and letting Parsons run downhill on running downs seems too logical for Dallas.
But instead of trying anything to change it up, they stuck with the same defense and got run over the same way again.
