While Derek Cardenas delivered a dominant performance on Friday, a win just wasn't in the cards for Edcouch-Elsa. Despite the defeat, Cardenas was still balling out as he picked up 1.5 sacks and made 11 total tackles (3.0 for loss). Cardenas is crushing it when it comes to sacks: he's posted at least one every time he's taken the field this season.

Looking ahead, Cardenas and Edcouch-Elsa will challenge Porter at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The Yellowjackets are a perfect 6-0 against the Cowboys going back to October of 2015, a lead they'll look to extend.
