ARLINGTON, Texas -- Joe Flacco didnt care that Baltimore was playing the team with the NFLs best record, and John Harbaugh didnt seem to either.The quarterback and the coach believe the Ravens are up there with any opponent despite Sundays 27-17 loss to the Dallas Cowboys that dropped them back to .500 -- but still tied for first with Pittsburgh in the AFC North.Oh, and Baltimore (5-5) has a win over the Steelers.Were definitely good enough to win any game we play in the National Football League, Harbaugh said. Our eyes go to next week against Cincinnati at home. Six-game season and we need to take care of our business, and part of thats improving.The Ravens forced punts on the first four Dallas possessions -- a first against the Cowboys this season -- and held NFL rushing leader Ezekiel Elliott to 26 yards in the first half.But Dallas had scoring drives of 92 and 88 yards to start the second half, breaking a 10-10 tie. And the Ravens couldnt stop the Cowboys after Flaccos scoring pass to Steve Smith got them within a touchdown in the fourth quarter.Five straight scoring drives is impressive, Baltimore safety Eric Weddle said. Its the little things that count when both teams are good.Dallas rookie Dak Prescott threw three touchdown passes, two to Dez Bryant , in his first game with Tony Romo as the backup. The Cowboys (9-1) have a franchise regular-season record with nine straight wins, topping the 1977 team that started 8-0 and won the Super Bowl.I am going to continue to stay away from it, said ever-optimistic Dallas owner Jerry Jones, whos been known to engage in Super Bowl talk in the past. I can hang my hat on this little thing called nine wins in a row.Things to consider after the Ravens lost to the Cowboys for the first time, a span covering five games:SMITHS MILESTONE: The 16th-year receiver can move on to trying to reach the postseason for the sixth time in his career after becoming the 14th player with 1,000 catches . He caught eight for a game-high 99 yards, including the 5-yard score and a toe-tapping gem for No. 999.Bittersweet, I guess, he said. Id give all that back to win, to be honest.THE ROMO FACTOR: The 36-year-old who broke a bone in his back in a preseason game was active for the first time since last Thanksgiving, and was the backup for the first time in 10 years. Now that those milestones are cleared, the Cowboys press onward with Prescott, who is second to Ben
