ARLINGTON, Texas – Painful as Sunday’s loss to Seattle might have been, it came with some serious perspective just before the halftime break.

Right before the teams headed to their locker rooms, the game ground to a terrifying halt for roughly 10 minutes when Seahawks receiver Ricardo Lockette was rendered motionless by a big block delivered by Jeff Heath during a punt return.

“My intention wasn’t to hurt him, obviously. Just trying to play hard, and it’s really unfortunate that he got hurt,” Heath said. “Once I saw that he was down like that, I felt horrible – because all the players in the NFL, it’s one big brotherhood. You don’t ever want to hurt a guy.”

Lot's of interesting postgame stuff.

Michael Bennett called Garrett and the team "classless." Never mind his "classless" shot at Cassel's knees on the last drive. He absolutely did that on purpose.

Then, of course Dez going off in the locker room on reporters.

Told reporters to "Get the **** outta here..." among other f bombs. Finally, two Cowboy P.R. guys escorted him into the trainer's room to finish dressing. If you didn't see it, don't don't worry - every news outlet in America will run it I'm sure. Some reporter from Fox apparently putting a Vine together that shows Dez saying that Lockett deserved the hit.

Just another week.

Jesus, that's terrible. A man gets injured, something that looked serious, and the media tries to create controversy out of it?

Media today makes me sick.

Not only that, but Dez could've been talking about something else at that moment. Both benches had cleared so there was a lot of jawing on both sides.

Agreed.

And the thing that annoys me to no end is that will be a story and that will be accepted as truth.

Why? Because some jackass found a clip, guessed at what Dez was saying and ran with it.

The ridiculous thing is, we've all seen A Bad Lip Reading -- essentially that's what you have here.

That's the media for you. Get's everyone in a frenzy over something Dez doesn't say just to try to stir up controversy for Dallas. I'm shocked they haven't made a big deal about Hardy talking to Mincy on the sidelines yet. Even though they were both sitting down and Hardy was explaining something to him it looked as though Hardy had emotion on his face. If that's not a ground breaking story I don't know what is.

Dez is not a problem, leave him alone. Media has tried to make him a distraction for 5 years now. He's not, get over it.

Applications for some of these writers must ask "Can you create BS on a moments notice?"

Why can't Dez just learn to shut his mouth? This was my biggest fear going into this year. Dez gets paid....then becomes uncontrollable. So much for "RKG".......this team has quickly turned into a bunch of ________. :(

Serious question...

Shut his mouth? Hardy gets vilified for saying no comment. Dez gets vilified for speaking. The Cowboys can't win (no pun intended).

Have you seen the video? I have. He got busted running his mouth..... And now he is trying to sheepishly defend himself. I'd post a link but I'm on my Amazon fire TV box.....and can't post a link.

Dez doesn't need to do anything else but be Dez.

Not true....I'll post the link when I can. And then you can judge for yourself.

No thanks. I've seen the vine. But you're going to ignore what a Seattle player is saying? A player who was actually on the field?
