Julian Edelman and Danny Amendola break down the 2008 preseason showdown between the Cowboys and Texans. Amendola reflects on life as a Texas kid chasing the NFL dream, what it felt like to get cut by Jerry Jones on Hard Knocks, and how that game became a turning point in his career. They also talk about high school rivalries, playing in iconic Texas stadiums, and why Dancing with the Stars might be tougher than Special Forces. Brought to you by TRANSFORMERS and Hasbro.
