It’s no surprise that Dez Bryant would get noticed for his three-touchdown outburst against the Eagles Sunday.
What’s surprising is how long it’s been since a Cowboys wideout has had that kind of outburst in December.
Bryant was named NFC offensive player of the week for his evisceration of the Eagles, which included six catches for 114 yards.
According to the league, he’s the first Cowboys wideout to win the award since Michael Irvin.
That’s a lot of bad December football in between, but Bryant’s performance might help changes some of the team’s recent problems getting to the postseason.
