Fourth-and-Long Face: Norm’s Cowboys Reality Check | Just Wondering with Norm Hitzges

Norm wakes up choosing honesty and film study. With Mary riding shotgun (and running the board), “Just Wondering” turns into “Just Wondering How This Team Scores.” From C.D. Lamb’s ankle to a pass rush that couldn’t pop a balloon, Norm sifts through Pro Football Focus grades, calls out the talent gaps, and wonders aloud if “pretty good” Dak can carry a not-so-pretty roster. It’s witty, cranky, and very Norm—peppered with Mary’s sponsor reads, steakhouse cravings, and a plea for chunk plays before the Packers and Lions show up with receipts.
