D. Hall is our lone Pro Bowl selection

Witten and Ware were deserving, and I don't have a huge problem with Mat McBriar being the punter for the pro bowl team, but that would make three Cowboys players already. The idea that they should get more than that is ludicrous.

I don't think Dallas deserved 5 Pro Bowlers.

But in defense of Ratliff, the guy is a very undersized NT in a 3-4. He is a converted 4-3 DE. And was a 7th round draft pick.

3.5 sacks for an undersized NT who is constantly fighting off double teams is pretty good IMO.

You not making a defense for Ratliff your making an excuse for him.

Dallas had the worst Defense in the NFC, Ware is the best OLB in the conference so I can agree with him but ratliff had a very avg season. Miles Austin got snubbed IMO he still had a solid season without Romo for most of it.
