Rico Dowdle explains his secret for success

Dallas Cowboys running back Rico Dowdle has been one of the bright spots for the team this season.

Since he was given the RB1 role and the team abandoned it's running back-by-committee approach, Dowdle has been one of the best backs in the league.

His mindset is a large reason for that.

Dowdle explained his motivation for success in a recent discussion with the media.

Dowdle is second in rushing yards since Week 9, and has one of the best yards per carry averages in the NFL.

We will see if he can keep the hot streak alive.

Up next for the Cowboys is a trip to Carolina to take on the Panthers. Kickoff is set for 1:00 p.m. ET on Sunday afternoon.
