In this episode
Calvin and Michael kick off the episode with a recap of the Cowboys’ big victory against the Rams in Los Angeles. [1:18] Jerry Jones was as happy as we’ve ever seen him after the win, and [2:20] quarterback Dak Prescott explains the Cowboys’ growing confidence. [6:00] Defensive end DeMarcus Lawrence talks about how multiple players are contributing on defense.
[9:40] This week’s guest interview is with kicker Brett Maher. After being cut during his first stint with the Cowboys, Maher has made 13 of 14 field-goal attempts this season. He talks about his new mental approach.
[19:50] Calvin and Michael also preview the big Sunday night matchup between the Cowboys and Eagles, and discuss how the winner will be in the driver’s seat in the NFC East. [23:45] The episode wraps up, as always, with the I Disagree segment, where we debate the weakness of the Cowboys’ defense.
