That's what happens when you play for a franchise that is always overhyped.

What are you talking about? We are never overhyped like the Cowboys. There's always a lot of attention on our team because of our owner and because of our market. But the Cowboys are always overhyped by their bandwagon fans and the media.

This year was the first time in a long time that we've actually been overhyped. Maybe the '09 year when Florio had us in the Super Bowl, but even still, I don't really buy that logic.

The skins were not overhyped. RGIII was overhyped.

I'd say we were overhyped; we were considered the dominate force in the East headed for a long playoff run.

ROY, lead the team to the division title. Star is born whether you like it or not.

He didnt lose the game last night, but you cant depend on him to win it either. His rating mirrors the play of the 'boys in December, he is certainly a contributing factor.


Another Ive noticed and is back up by numerous stats, Dallas has built a secondary that is brutally horrible. Brandon Carr is a free agent bust, as perdicted, and is being grossly over paid. Mo Claibourne is a f*ckin draft bust. I remember people claim he was going to be better than Patrick Peterson a previous LSU top 5 CB. Peterson right now is a top 5 CB. Claibourne is a top 5 biggest bust of the last 10 years. Hard to believe, but Cowboys Safety play is much worse than ours. Merrieweather > Barry Church which is crazy to say, but very true.

Here's blurp about the preview to last night game:

The Cowboys secondary will be tested Monday Night against this dangerous duo of wide outs. Brandon Carr has been the constant of this unit, starting every game with three ‘green’ graded performances in this area – his best coming against the Redskins, who targeted him 12 times and got four catches, 55 yards, and three passes defensed for their efforts. However, the former Chief has also had four ‘red’ graded performances in coverage, the worst coming against Calvin Johnson, who ate him alive. Despite a clutch late-game interception last week vs. Oakland, he still gave up 70 yards on four catches to the Mike McGloin/Andre Holmes pairing. Orlando Scandrick, normally a slot defender, but moved to the outside sometimes due to injuries, has been much more consistent with only two bad performances. Former first-rounder Morris Claiborne continues to battle injuries and appears to be a bust, while also owning the worst coverage grade on this unit; it’s unclear if he’ll play in this contest. 2013 fourth-rounder B.W. Webb has seen more snaps as a result of injuries and, while he hasn’t embarrassed himself, he still conceded a TD to the Giants two weeks ago. Meanwhile, the safeties are also a liability – rookie third-rounder J.J. Wilcox and undrafted rookie Jeff Heath have combined for a horrific -11.2 coverage grade this year. Barry Church has been significantly better, but still has more negatively graded performances on the year than positive.
