The Cowboys were my favorite team growing up. They played in primetime a lot and in Hawaii, primetime is like 3:00 p.m. We were like, ‘Dang, it’s night over there. The sun is still up over here.’ I come from a family that are big Cowboys fans. But not anymore. Everyone is Dolphins fans. And then the ones who still support the Cowboys are probably not my family anyways.

Both have won their ten games and have lost just four. In this context, both are trying to win their respective divisions.

The game will be also interesting because two potential MVP candidates will have a face-off. Tyreek Hill and Dak Prescott. Both have been absolutely stunning this season and have earned their names in the MVP discussions. However, both have been left behind recently due to a couple of bad games and they will want to come back through good performance in the remaining games.

It’s going to be cool. It’s going to be cool for the moment, just being able to see the star. Being able to see those guys in their jerseys and whatever and whatnot. Some of the guys that are playing, I used to watch them while I was in high school playing high school football. And now I get to play against some of the guys on their team.

The Cowboys-Dolphins game will be a must-win for both teams. It is to be seen, who holds the last laugh in the high-voltage game.
