Not really sure how good he is but all his Highlights have come from poor tackles, So it may be players are under estimating him or ???

Jackson, Fitz, Colston, White and possibly the G-Men's Steve Smith are the ones I think who will get the consideration for the NFC.

His TD's vs KC were missed tackles. He will play a real secondary on sunday vs the Eagles we will see if he is for real.
WR's usually take 3 years to come into their own, this is his 4th year.
Maybe you hadn't heard but there was a lot of talk about his potential and Dallas has been very high on this kid, all he needed was a chance and with the departure of T.O. it allowed Austin to challenge Crayton for more PT.
If he does not have a big game vs the Eagles on Sunday it does not mean anything really. The Eagles have shut T.O. down before, teams scheme to try and shut playmakers down and I'm sure the Eagles will turn on the tape from the last few weeks and look to contain him.

I think this is the case here. Like I mentioned the Cowboys have been high on Austin for quite some time. They have been developing this UDFA for the last few years.
Austin has more yards than all the WRs you posted other than Steve Smith and he only started 3 games, he SHOULD be headed to the probowl if he keeps it up.
Sidney Rice could also be mentioned

Seeing as how he plays on americas team, it seems very possible.

The love for Miles Austin has turned into NFL MVP talk of Tony Romo. ESPN is running a front page story of Tony's NFL MVP run.

I can't speak for everyone else, but I'm happy about it. As for Miles Austin, he's playing well and they're definitely getting more from him than they are from Roy Williams.
