Just Wondering... with Norm Hitzges

Did the Cowboys Just Wake Up? Or Is This a Tease? | Just Wondering with Norm Hitzges


Listen Later

It’s Monday, November 24th, and today Norm is just wondering: when was the last time the Dallas Cowboys delivered a win that made fans scream, throw things, swear they were done, and then pretend they believed all along?

Because after falling behind 21–0 — complete with a failed fourth-down attempt, a fumbled punt, multiple drops, and enough self-inflicted pain to qualify as performance art — somehow, someway, the Cowboys decided to be a football team again.

From there? Dallas chipped, clawed, and lucked its way back into what turned into one of their most meaningful wins in years — a 24–21 comeback over the defending Super Bowl champs, the division rival Eagles, and the team that’s made the NFC East feel like a one-team league.

 

So… what does it mean?

A turning point?

A false alarm?

A setup for heartbreak on Thanksgiving?

Well, buckle up — because Norm breaks down the chaos, the odds, and exactly what a path to the playoffs looks like now that this team has decided losing isn’t as fun as we all feared.

For now? We savor it.

For exactly three days.
