Series Series tied 1–1 after meeting No. 2 since 1999 Full series history
Dallas spent its long break after Thursday's 24–16 home defeat reviewing all three phases. The owner says nobody is being fired before the October 18 trip to Green Bay.
Ravens linebacker Trenton Simpson, Jets safety Minkah Fitzpatrick and Broncos guard Ben Powers drew the largest fines, and five players were docked for hip-drop tackles.
Atlanta will play Sunday night without its veteran edge rusher, who has concussion and neck injuries, and lost a linebacker to injured reserve on the eve of Baltimore's visit.
