AFC Pro Bowler

Slater only needs 6 more Pro Bowls to tie his dad!

At leas McCourty wasnt on it.Man i hope this guy turns it around.So Victor Cruz didnt make it on the nfc or did he?

 

[MoLewisrocks]

Aaron Hernandez getting some love from NFLN as a snub. . . . and GRONK will be appearing a little later on the show.

He is likely the first alternate and Gates has been battling injury all season. I'd just as soon not see Hernandez get too much love just yet. It goes to their heads so easily. Gronk seems better grounded and focused to deal with the fawning. This will just cost us ($$$) is the way I look at it with the young'uns. Totally screwed up Merriweather's self image and made him virtually uncoachable. May have led McCourty to not work on his game as hard as he should have during the lockout.

So what happens with players who make the pro bowl and have to play in the SB?

Kinda surprised GB only has 6 (4 starters) for all their hype and being 14-1.

they actually have 7

but i don't think raji or their center really earned it as much

raji's cool but i don't think he's all that this year

raji's another "name" pick

they don't play in the pro bowl, and someone takes their place

Don't play in the SB

Hernandez must be feeling pretty miffed as to why he's not in there...slightly better year than Gates...I think he's been marginally better and should have got in. Complete snub.

Brian Waters got the love from players and coaches to move him up into the starters role...fans didn't get him enough votes, so glad people saw sense. Mankins shouldn't be in there.

Wilfork is one of those ones you could argue either way. Lots of competition at the tackle spot.

ok how in the **** did rivers make the pro bowl?


what universe am i living in where that happened?


the players like him that much?


i love the guy, but his season was ****

Looks are other options

Raji has been nowhere near Pro Bowl level this year. Just another one of the Packers' overrated defenders this year. Sitton (guard) deserved to be in the Pro Bowl more than any Packer other than Rodgers.

I just noticed, Maurkice Pouncey starting over Nick Mangold?

That has to show player/coach hatred over the annoying JEST.

Congrats to the 8, and here's hoping that they are all otherwise engaged.

BTW, if you want to talk about players who didn't deserve to go, start with D'Bustashaw.

Everyone named today is a Pro Bowler, period, even if they don't play by choice, injury, or Super Bowl participation.

Pro Bowlers in the SB will be replaced by the top alternates; alternates are only Pro Bowlers if they actually play.

you know what's lame?

even people who show up to the pro bowl because 5 other qbs passed, become known as pro bowl players too

vince young is a pro bowl qb in the past


how gay

 

[ctpatsfan77]

One other fun fact: in terms of fan voting, the top three AFC vote-getters were all Patriots (Brady, Welker, and GRONK).

It's one of those annoying tid bits that catches you of guard during a debate.

"whatta ya mean? He's a pro bowler"

"he was good enough to make the pro bowl last year"

replacement hacks

Slater is going to the Pro bowl? for what? seriously.

Great point, he is easily the best center in the league. Flip a coin between him and Revis as the best player on that roster.

 

[BaltimorePatsFan]

Maurkice Pouncey is soooo overrated it's not even funny. Kid's eventually going to end up in the Hall of Fame thanks to his 10+ Pro Bowl appearances based on reputation alone even though he's an above average center at best. Alex Mack/Chris Myers deserve the nod over him.

Also, as much as I (still) love Big Sey, not sure if he has deserved the last few Pro Bowl selections.

Ray Lewis definitely doesn't belong there either.
