4. The Emergence of Sean Lee

The Dallas Cowboys are finding out what Lee can do at full power and optimal health.

If the linebacker can stay on the turf for two more games, this will be the first time the long-time Cowboy has played a 16-game season.

The 30-year-old has 140 tackles with two games left to go.

Lee has registered 10 tackles or more in nine games so far this season.

Though he has no sacks or interceptions to his name so far, the former second rounder will play a pivotal role in helping the Cowboys get through the playoffs and into the Super Bowl.
