In this episode of Just Wondering, legendary broadcaster Norm Hitzges doesn’t sugarcoat a thing as he dissects the Dallas Cowboys’ exhibition performance against the Baltimore Ravens. From Joe Milton’s painful stat line to a run game stuck in neutral, Norm lays out exactly why fans should be concerned heading into the regular season.
With Baltimore outgaining Dallas nearly 400 to 176 yards, Norm highlights the Cowboys’ offensive dysfunction, a defense that looks just “okay,” and a coaching staff with tough decisions ahead. He also widens the lens, touching on the Texas Rangers’ struggles, blown leads, and dwindling playoff hopes—before teasing some extraordinary adventures and upcoming football picks you won’t want to miss.
It’s vintage Norm: sharp, witty, brutally honest, and endlessly entertaining.
