The Dallas Cowboys continue to hold the attention of the football world, even a month after their embarrassing playoff defeat.

Since losing to the No.7 seed Green Bay Packers in AT&T Stadium during Wild Card Weekend, much has been said about the direction of the franchise and its most important pieces.

Quarterback Dak Prescott’s perpetual polarization continued and head coach Mike McCarthy is, justifiably, under more pressure than ever.

As the Dallas faithful mourn a once-hopeful season, one of their own – Hall of Fame receiver Micahel Irvin – shared the loss’ lasting impact on 105.3 The Fan.

I still feel the same pain that I felt when that abomination hit the field in the playoff game,” Irvin said. “Everything around me reminds me of the damn pain.”

The Cowboys have a habit of embarrassing themselves on the biggest of stages, and with the eyes and ears of the national media constantly locked in on all things Dallas drama, there was no shortage of media firestorms.

Dallas was outplayed and outcoached by a young Packers team that jumped out to a 27-0 start before ultimately winning 48-32.

Green Bay’s season would end a week later in the NFC Divisional Round against the San Francisco 49ers, in heartbreaking fashion.

Perhaps they saved Irvin and the Cowboys fans from a familiar kind of pain.

“I still ain’t healed …” Irvin said. “We had a great shot at being here. Seriously, this was the year … That was a hard loss. Hard to bounce back.
