Norm Hitzges is back in the saddle and just a little fired up about the Cowboys. After a nail-biter against the Eagles, Norm reminds us why one game doesn’t write the whole season — no matter how many fumbles, drops, or heart palpitations it caused.
With his trademark mix of humor and hard truth, Norm dissects what this close loss might really say about Dallas (and maybe what it says about Philly, too). From Daron Bland’s absence to the Cowboys’ suddenly-thin secondary, Norm lays out why the upcoming matchup with the Giants is a must-win — and why early-season hype can make fools of us all.
Then it’s onto the college gridiron, where Norm delivers a takedown of cupcake scheduling season. He explains why schools like Grambling gladly cash million-dollar checks to get flattened by Ohio State and why those lopsided wins make quarterbacks’ stats look shinier than they really are.
If you’re a Cowboys die-hard, a college football purist, or just love Norm’s blend of storytelling and sports therapy, this episode will hit the spot (and maybe save you from some premature panic).
