It's easy, and only takes a few moments.Spikes has gotten all kinds of love from various media outlets and members of this board. I don't know where the OP is getting the perceived slight or lack of love for Spikes.
Spikes is having a monster year. He is bursting through the line, clobbering guys, causing fumbles, disrupting plays, and in general just causing havoc. And he is not bad in coverage. He has become the enforcer in the middle that the Patriots have not had in years yet the douches in the press have hardly noticed; all they want to do is complain about the DBs. I don't get it....wait yes I do..baseball season is over so they need something else to complain about....

I wouldn't go so far as to say he's 'not bad in coverage', but I agree that he has been playing very well this year.
My only gripe about our LB corp is Mayo giving up short passes to RBs and TEs consistently.
In regard to being a Pro Bowler, I don't know about that. He'd be against the likes of Willis and Bowman, and they'll have more sacks than Spikes. Voters go for sacks.
Willis and Bowman play in the NFC. Spikes is in the AFC so they're voted separately.
