Re: Here are our pro bowlers

Does anyone have a link to the rosters, or is this just coming off from the NFLN? I'd like to see if the Cowboys actually got the 11 Pro Bowlers that were mentioned in another thread.

Edit, yes 11 "boys" made it. 5 of 11 starters on the offense. Where is that vomit emoticon when you need it.

Re: Here are our pro bowlers

what wr would you boot for welker?

wayne & braylon edwards clearly deserve it.

i suppose you could make a case for tj housh ... they will certainly end up with similar stats.

Re: Here are our pro bowlers

great to see 7 of 11 starters are pats.

Re: Here are our pro bowlers

There is no way that Matt "False Start at Home" Light deserves to be a Pro-Bowl starter. Kopen is marginal in my book too. Nice to see Vrabel and Wilfolk get some props. The whole thing is a POS IMO. The goal is to win the SB not get guys into the PB. That's for losers like SD.

Re: Here are our pro bowlers

They need to expand the roster to at least 45 but preferably 53. League is cheaping out not doing so. Only 4 WR and 2 TE, tough to run some offenses with those personnel...

And yet 3 QB's, all of whom will play unlike in real life...

Welker should be the first alternate added at WR or KR or STer.

I hope Light now plays like a pro bowler from here on out.

And Welker won't be accused of tearing up his team in the process, which is the current situation with TJ and CJ in Bunglesland.

There should be 5 WR in a league obcessed with offense that sends 3 QB's to the Pro Bowl every season.

I agree, this was the discussion on the NFL network about this position and the pro-bowl for the AFC, its deep.

Re: Here are our pro bowlers

Is there anywhere to check in on the alternates? I'm curious how the numbers look there. I know the Cowboys got 4 alternates in addition to their 11 players.

is the nfc really that bad, that they have to take the entire dallas cowboys team as their pro bowl roster?

The correct name is Matt "Drive Killer" Light!

Wow, no Jaguars and no one at all from the NFC South.

8 Pro Bowlers

Eight Patriots were selected to the Pro Bowl today:

Tom Brady, Dan Koppen, Matt Light, Logan Mankins, Randy Moss, Asante Samuel, Mike Vrabel and Vince Wilfork.

More to come.

 

[oldskool138]

At least Hanson didn't get in. He was leading all punters in the fan voting for a while.

 

[Scouse Patriot]

Wes will be gutted he didn't get to go. He's worked solidly all season and his numbers aren't that far behind. They should send 5 recievers.

i dont think welker is a snub..some recognition..maybe but look @ what hes done and others

Welker: 96 catches 1004 yards 8 TDs
Edwards: 69 catches 1,170 yards 13 TDs
Housh: 101 catches 1028 yards 11 TDs
Wayne: 82 catches 1280 yards 9 TDs

i think if Andre Johnson was healthy all year he would've easily gotten 1 of the spots

Johnson 85 is also having a nice year quietly. 85 catches 1265 yards 6 TDs

again..these guys are their teams go to guys while Moss is ours so a slot WR wont get as much recognition as the #1 or #2 guy

Welkers doing a great job but to take 2 WRs from THIS offense..1 that has slighty worse #s than others than got in..it would be unfair

I'd also like to find out who the alternates were

It's hard to argue that any of them aren't worthy. Welker and Warren are the two that had a case, but imo were by no means 'snubbed'.

Warren was listed as a DT on the ballot, wasn't he? Along with Warren there are a number of more deserving candidates than Jamal Williams, who has had a pretty medioce season (partly due to injuries).

Other than that, everyone who was deserving actually did make it. Makes a nice change.

 

[Patsfanin Philly]

8 Pats made it this year and i can think of 6 Pats who have made it in the past.......

Troy Brown, Junior Seau
Adalius Thomas, Larry Izzo, Tedy B.
Richard Seymour...Did I forget anybody.....?

It's nice to have a locker room when you have 14 guys who have been to the Pro Bowl and others who are on the cusp (welker/Warren)....pretty good models for the younger guys...

 

[homerpatsfan]

a snub for welker,no doubt,so glad to see vrabel!!!!
