Ravens vs Cowboys Preseason Betting Prediction

The betting outlook for this matchup leans toward Baltimore both on the field and in the market. The Ravens’ combination of elite rushing production, explosive efficiency, and proven success against Dallas makes them a strong preseason pick, particularly if the offensive starters get extended reps. On the other hand, the Cowboys’ defensive struggles could keep the game high-scoring, which makes the over a tempting wager, especially considering six of the last seven Ravens-Cowboys meetings have gone that way. While preseason volatility means nothing is guaranteed, the numbers point toward a Ravens cover and a game total that trends toward the over.

Ravens vs Cowboys Preseason Betting Prediction: Baltimore

The Baltimore Ravens step into Week 2 of the preseason with momentum and betting advantages on their side. Historically, they’ve dominated the Cowboys against the spread, going 8-1 in their last nine meetings, and their current roster construction suggests they could extend that trend. Offensively, Baltimore is a machine — ranking first in the league in both rushing yards per game (192.84) and yards per play (6.84). They are also third in overall scoring at 30.05 points per contest. This efficiency is supported by excellent ball security, as they commit the fewest interceptions per game in the NFL. The Ravens also thrive in road games, covering in 4 of their last 5 visits to Dallas, and their recent track record against NFC East opponents — winning 15 of their last 19 matchups — gives them another reason for confidence.

Ravens vs Cowboys Preseason Betting Prediction: Dallas

For the Dallas Cowboys, the preseason is an opportunity to fix glaring issues before the regular season begins, particularly on defense. Dallas ranks near the bottom of the league in points allowed, giving up an average of 27.53 per game, and is especially vulnerable against the run, where they sit 29th at 137.12 rushing yards allowed. Despite these defensive concerns, Dallas games have been entertaining for bettors who prefer overs, with each of their last five contests going above the total. However, their betting form has been poor, with just two wins in their last 11 home games and a 3-6 ATS record against AFC opponents. That said, preseason games can bring surprises, especially if younger players step up in big moments.
