Because the Pro Bowl is a very poor indicator of talent.
Like I was saying to someone in a PM, Jacksonville and Tampa both had ZERO Pro Bowlers. Does anyone really think we're that much better a team than they are? Maybe a little better, but not 13-0 better.
Let's face it, every year we talk about guys making the Pro Bowl off name recognition when they didn't deserve it, or at the very least weren't clearly better than other players at the same position. We had a ton of guys in this year because 1) we had a great record and 2) we're the Cowboys and are on TV a ton. It doesn't mean our talent is really that much better than what other teams have.
