Ravens Win With Walk-Off Field Goal at Maracanã

This outcome underscores the NFL's push into Brazil, signaling new momentum for the league's international series.

Overview

  • Tyler Loop kicked a 56–57-yard field goal as time expired to give the Baltimore Ravens a 34-31 victory over the administratively home-designated Dallas Cowboys on Sept. 27, 2026.
  • The finish capped a back-and-forth game in Rio de Janeiro in which Baltimore recovered from an early deficit with two rushing touchdowns from Derrick Henry and late passing plays from Lamar Jackson.
  • Dallas rallied in the fourth quarter behind Dak Prescott and CeeDee Lamb to briefly take the lead, but Brandon Aubrey's late 23-yard field goal left seven seconds on the clock for Baltimore's final drive.
  • The result moves the Ravens to 2-1 and drops the Cowboys to 1-2, with Baltimore set to host Tennessee and Dallas scheduled to visit Houston next week.
  • The Maracanã event combined sport and spectacle with a halftime show by Ricky Martin and Pedro Sampaio and a soccer-flavored moment when Loop celebrated in Cristiano Ronaldo style, reflecting the NFL's effort to localize its product in Brazil after two prior games in São Paulo.
