Since Pro Bowl voting began on Oct. 13, the Redskins have put out out quite a campaign. According to the totals, Washington has four players among the top-10 vote getters regardless of position and conference.
The Cowboys? Only one - Jason Witten at No. 10.
Running back Clinton Portis is No. 2, tight end Chris Cooley is No. 6, wide receiver Santana Moss is No. 6 and quarterback Jason Campbell is No. 9. If that's not a challenge for Cowboys' fans, I don't know what is. I think I know the reason why the Redskins are doing so well. Check this out. How could Jerry Jones not have thought of this?
Voting on NFL.com runs through Dec. 9.
As for the Cowboys, quarterback Tony Romo and wide receiver Terrell Owens are not among the top five at their positions. DeMarcus Ware is the only Cowboy to lead his category, outside linebackers. Witten and Flozell Adams are No. 2 among tight ends tackles, while Marion Barber and Deon Anderson are third at RB and FB.
Nick Folk, Felix Jones (kick returner) and Keith Davis (special teamer) are fourth in their category. Andre Gurode, Leonard Davis, Ken Hamlin and Zach Thomas are fifth at center, guard, free safety and inside linebacker.
