This shocked me until I realized that Demarcus Ware is in fact an OLB. I'm sure he won that award many times.

Ware was drafted as an outside linebacker, but he also played defensive end when the team converted to a 4-3.

?? This is awarded by the NFL. Not the media. Not the fans. This is a pure merit-based thing by the league.

It was a joke. Making fun of weenies around here who want to yell at the media when we don't win a particular award, or a player doesn't win an award or we are ranked too low in the power ranking, even if the media isn't even involved........... like last week when Wentz won the Pepsi Rookie of the Week award.

What makes Irving so disruptive? What are his strengths, brother? What stands out to you? I ask because your football acumen is almost second to none, especially DL.

Thanks, in advance :)

I get it.. but personally, I don't think it was really necessary. Sometimes just enjoy the ride and take shots in the threads that warrant them. But either way, this is a good thing. Go Cowboys and all that jazz. :)

Crazy how outside of this team, they recognize great play, but our coaching staff doesn't. Why he doesn't play more is beyond me?

For me its his speed off the ball, and his WINGSPAN. Man has eagle wings. He can grab you from pretty much anywhere on the line if hes in the vicinity. Crazy part is, hes still quite raw. Marinelli is turning him into a force.

If anything I hope this is a confidence builder for him. This guy could really be a marquee player for us.

Cowboys fans: Hell yeah!
Knowledgable Cowboys fans: All he needed was snaps.
A vast majority of NFL fans: Who?
The media: Dak or Romo?
The Dallas media: Didn't he get kicked out of college?
Ricky Jean Francois: We run the damn NFC Defensive POTW!
