Pro Bowl thread

Let’s see these rules in action. I think the 4th and 15 thing is too easy and vulnerable to fake DPI calls. Unless it was at your own 10 yard line then teams will think twice

I haven't watched the pro bowl in years, I think it's a waste of a game and for so many years the Pats had no one there as they were preparing for the SB , but I might tune in today as I am craving some football, any kind will do right now !

They should have this game after the SB like they used to.

They LITERALLY are not tackling! What a freaking joke! I need those 42 seconds of my life back.

Are they making NBA style fouls at least?

No, because the ball carrier just stops when touched. You need to tune in just for a few seconds to see what a farce this is. I feel sorry for the poor idiots who bought tickets to that thing.

This game has been two hand touch for a while. Lineman are standing up too.

Time has come !

Go team !

Beat that other team.
They are full of jerks !

I can’t. I don’t want to ruin my childhood memories of the Pro Bowl. And all those shots of the women in bikinis.

Honestly they should just do some sort of flag football or skills competition thing and call it a day because the game is beyond garbage.

I like the idea of trying new rules but do it in the preseason when players are actually interested in playing.

Or just vote for NFC/AFC “team of the years” and just have the recognition.

I suggested this years ago: get rid of the game and replace it with a televised awards ceremony featuring video clips of individual highlights. Players don't want to play the game anyway, no need to keep doing it half-assed.

This was today?

Wilson gave Brees his starting spot. There is some speculation that Brees may retire. I don’t think he will, but that is the only semi-meaningful thing to come out of the pro bowl.

This ****s embarrassing I was at 24 I saw it in tv and thought it was practice, when did they stop tackling each other

Fake Football

The 4th and 15 rule thing just seems like a new and arbitrary addition to give the losing team a basically unfair shot. The onside kick is basically using the same rules as a regular kick off, just strategically short and played to induce a muff.

I'd say if anyone wasted their time watching the pro bowl...you need to find a hobby, a wife, husband, or start a family...

There were some interesting hints that maybe, just maybe, Brees could retire.

He didn't sound certain about coming back when interviewed, plus Wilson gave up his starting spot to Brees.

I wonder how this would affect Brady, in that perhaps he considers the Saints if Brees retires. That would be wild.

Didn’t watch it. Get rid of it!
