00:05 >> Seems like everybody is going to be going to the window with the Dallas Cowboys here.
00:10 Before I give you the numbers, I will give you Dak Prescott.
00:13 Cowboys have eight wins and right now none of those teams that they've beaten are over 500.
00:18 So can they beat some good teams?
00:20 Here's Dak.
00:21 >> Yeah, I mean, the NFL is tough in general.
00:24 I've never, I've said it over and over, get obsessed with records or
00:29 say this team is good or bad based on this record.
00:31 I mean, injuries, a lot of things play into records a lot of times.
00:34 But understanding, yeah, that the teams we've played haven't, records haven't been great.
00:38 But I can promise you everybody that comes in and
00:40 everybody that we play, we do get their best shot.
00:43 And I'd say I don't think everybody else does that.
00:44 But when you play the Dallas Cowboys, I can promise you the other teams,
00:49 it is a little bit bigger than some of the games that they play.
00:51 And that comes from people around the league, they always talk about it.
00:55 Players that come in, free agents that come in, they mention it.
00:57 So we're getting people's best shots.
00:59 And then now as we move forward in teams with better records,
01:02 we're still gonna get their best shot.
01:03 And so it's important for us, as I said, to continue to grow and
01:06 build on what we've done.
01:07 >> I don't disagree with what he's saying, Joe, in terms of, yeah,
01:12 probably every team gets up when they wanna go play the Cowboys.
01:16 Especially since most of the time you're gonna be in a desirable television
01:20 location too, whether it's primetime like tonight, 425 on a Sunday, etc.
01:25 But the proof is in the pudding, Joe.
01:27 And it is what it is for the Cowboys and the Dolphins kinda also.
01:31 They've beaten a lot of teams this year that aren't very good.
01:34 And when they've played teams that are better than them,
01:38 they haven't gotten the job done.
01:39 And you kinda have to carry that until you go and you win some of those games.
01:43 >> And it's not just the Cowboys.
01:47 It's Mike McCarthy has this habit of beating the less thans.
01:53 And then all of a sudden getting outcoached or
01:56 shooting himself in the foot when the games matter the most.
01:59 There is no denying the Cowboys have been unbelievable,
02:02 not just this year at home, but going back in the last year.
02:05 But you're talking about now five straight 20 plus point wins at home this year.
02:13 They're going for a six straight now this season,
02:16 which is kind of unprecedented here.
02:18 I think it's only happened once or twice.
02:21 And I think you gotta go back to the greatest show on turf in order to see
02:25 a team that's actually won more straight double digit games like this by more
02:29 than 20 points.
