00:00And it's a big Cowboys game this week, obviously taking on the in-state Houston Texans there
00:21at AT&T Stadium on Monday night.
00:23Brian's been previewing on film both the defense and offense of these Houston Texans.
00:29There are no secrets anymore.
00:32What I wanted to ask is, you know, they're passing game, they're getting Nico Collins
00:35back.
00:36Brian averages 17 yards per catch, 113 per game.
00:41We'll get more on that here, maybe coming up in the expressway at 520 is joining us
00:46now.
00:47Brought to you by Keurig and Dr. Pepper is Cowboys linebacker Eric Hendrickson.
00:50Good afternoon.
00:51How you doing?
00:52What's up?
00:53Yeah.
00:54You tell us what's been the emphasis this week as you go up against one of the best
00:57teams in the AFC.
00:58What are you guys working on?
00:59Shoot.
01:00Playing good defense.
01:01I feel like they obviously have a lot of weapons.
01:05Good run game.
01:06Good quarterback.
01:07Just trying to get our matchups right, get our play set, and have a good week of practice.
01:13How about the theme at home?
01:15We've been used to the Cowboys being quite successful at home, but not quite this year
01:19yet.
01:20Can you put your finger on anything that's contributed to that?
01:23No.
01:24I feel like it's just a collective.
01:25Obviously, it's team sport.
01:27I'm excited to get that first one under the belt.
01:31What do you think?
01:32Could you use a little help from the fans here as far as the volume?
01:35What do you think about our Cowboys fans?
01:36We love them.
01:37Sometimes we say we're a little bit too polite and quiet down here in Texas.
01:41We need to get a little bit more rowdy.
01:43What do you think?
01:44I feel like we've got to give them something to cheer for.
01:47We've got to make the game fun and interesting, and then everything will be exactly how it
01:51should be.
01:52What do you think about playing on Monday Night Football?
01:54Does it still have that same aura?
01:56When I was a kid, it was like Monday Night's the primetime night.
01:58I feel like some of the better games now, maybe they've flipped to Sunday Night Football.
02:01I don't know if that's changed at all for you as a player.
02:03Yeah, I don't know.
02:05I feel like there's just certain games, certain feelings, certain atmosphere, any point of
02:13the year.
02:14I remember we had a game last year on a Sunday, just a day game in Foxboro, but it was like
02:18a rainy game.
02:19I feel like even then, it just kind of felt like, okay, this is like the football games
02:24that I was used to seeing as a kid.
02:27I feel like any time you can get yourself in that kind of mindset, especially on a Monday
02:29night, you've got to go for it.
