NFL News OT: Shadeur named Pro Bowl replacement

[Ring 6]

Imagine being an AFC QB and having him picked over you.

Every starter and a few backups had to have said no right?

 

[Ring 6]

This is even worse than Corky Jones' 2021 "pro-bowl" selection (after others turned that one down too).

Far worse. Jones was a playoff qb with above average stats.
Sanders sat the bench then sucked when he did play.

 

[JoeSixPat]

So with Josh Allen now out of the Pro Bowl does that mean Tua gets a shot too?

 

[PATSYLICIOUS]

Pro bowl season! Imagine him under the tutelage of Jordan palmer

Maybe. . . .

The Pro Bowl has really become a joke. They will really put anyone in it.

At this point, they should just name Pro Bowl teams like they do with the All Pro team and just label the Pro Bowl game something else so they can fill a roster without giving undeserving players a Pro Bowl birth.

Mary and Joseph just stop doing the “pro bowl “.

What a farce.

I mean…Mac Jones was a “pro bowler”

 

[PancakeBlockPaul]

Corky says sup?

Is there a predictable, transparent process like that?

Apparently the no Pro Bowl still makes money. Haven't watched it for years.

I think they go down the list of highest vote getters until someone says yes

If they made the last place NFL team play the runner up for the NCAA title, people would absolutely watch.

Furthermore, the humiliation of an NFL team losing to a college team would serve as a counterbalance to teams that try to tank to get the #1 pick.

What an absolute joke… The pro bowl is one of the biggest embarrassment and professional sports… This was just a little courtesy nod to daddy Deion. This guy sucked year and will most likely continue to suck! Maybe every other quarterback in the AFC declined the offer to go to the pro bowl and that’s what they were left with was him…Embarrassing NFL!

The new embarrassment is the HOF selection committee.

I was going to say Sanders selection isn't as bad as Tommy Hodson Junior's in 2021.....

Of course this is silly - but it's actually a good thing for the NFL's ratings. Sanders is a trainwreck - which brings a lot of eyeballs.
Also - he'll probably be great in a flag football game where no one really cares about defense that much. That's what he should be doing full time. He should start training specifically for the Olympics in LA in '28.

 

[TheRainMaker]

This is a Twilight Zone episode where Shadeur Sanders makes the Pro Bowl, but BB doesn't make 1st ballet HOF.

McCorkle wasn't nearly as bad as Shadeur Sanders was in 2021.

You were pretty close — Allen’s replacement is Joe Flacco!

 

[sb1]

Dobbs was robbed of a pro bowl spot.

 

[JoeSixPat]

You were pretty close — Allen’s replacement is Joe Flacco!

I was really pulling for Russell Wilson but honestly Flacco should have gotten the nod before Sanders who only had 8 starts.

Heck, Tua should have gotten the nod over Sanders
