FartWaffles 1,857 Posted December 21, 2016 Happy for Clowney. Well deserved. He's come a long way since battling all those injuries, and then bulking up to play 5TDE did wonders for him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SteVo+ 3,702 Posted December 21, 2016 Random thoughts: Joe Thomas, what a legend. Amari Cooper? Meh. You could argue he's not the best receiver on his team. Look at all those Titans. That's a team building their roster the right way. Happy for Jason Peters and Fletcher Cox. They both deserved it. Got damn all those Cowboys. You can't argue with any of them, though.

Favre4Ever+ 4,476 Posted December 21, 2016 One of the first times I think the Packers got a little hosed.I think David Bakhtiari belongs in there somewhere, Jordy Nelson belongs in the WR group, and Mike Daniels belongs along the defensive line... Oh well, of all things to get snubbed for, it isn't that big of a deal to get snubbed for something that is almost worthless. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DonovanMcnabb for H.O.F 2,241 Posted December 21, 2016 Nelson over Weddle is a problem, Sean Lee and Telvin Smith I believe also shoulda made it. No Lions on is kinda sad, but honestly I don't care about the pro bowl, and the Lions won't be eligible to play in it for obvious reasons... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thanatos 2,847 Posted December 21, 2016 Mike Tolbert being on this thing is a joke. Any Panthers fan would tell you he does not deserve it. His play has been abysmal, he's on it solely because of name recognition. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oochymp 2,393 Posted December 21, 2016 (edited) Look at all those Titans. That's a team building their roster the right way. No kidding, I never thought I'd see the day when the Titans made this list: Also, Mariota and Conklin are alternates, Mariota will probably end up in based on how many QBs usually bail on the game Edited December 21, 2016 by oochymp 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Favre4Ever+ 4,476 Posted December 22, 2016 It's in Orlando, too... Who the hell wants to go there? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bangy 19 Posted December 22, 2016 OBJ, Jenkins and Collins are well deserved. Glad Harris got the ST nod too. Jenkins and Collins in my opinion have both been playing at defensive player of the year calibre and deserve to go and OBJ despite how shitty our offence has been at time was a clear choice. I'm actually quite happy to see both the Titans and Raiders having a lot of players up there, both have had shitty years but through a proper rebuild have progressed really nicely Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Milla4Prez63 678 Posted December 22, 2016 Happy for Mike Evans to get his 1st Pro Bowl. McCoy going 5 in a row is dope too. I think David, Alexander and Grimes have chances to get in as alternates too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thanatos 2,847 Posted December 23, 2016 Lavonte David may be the most underrated OLB in the NFL. He's a top-5 OLB year in and year out, the position is just stacked as all hell. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ATL_Predator+ 1,196 Posted December 23, 2016 We might have the most players in this game...too bad they'll be playing for the SB against the Seahawks in February. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

seanbrock 1,684 Posted December 27, 2016 Lavonte David may be the most underrated OLB in the NFL. He's a top-5 OLB year in and year out, the position is just stacked as all hell. Sacks are overvalued and get a lot of votes when it comes to making pro bowls. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Milla4Prez63 678 Posted January 2, 2017 Lavonte David kind of had a down year this year IMO, he still was making plays but I don't think I've seen him make more mistakes in a season. He really settled down during the 5 game win streak though. Kwon Alexander has been the best LB overall this year for us IMO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oochymp 2,393 Posted January 25, 2017 (edited) From Paul Kuharsky at ESPN (Source): Philip Rivers is a fine quarterback, but he was presumably the 10th choice for the AFC's Pro Bowl roster. He'll get a sixth Pro Bowl on his résumé after the three elected players fell out -- Trump's Bitch because he's in the Super Bowl and Ben Roethlisberger and Derek Carr with injuries. Tennessee Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota, who was the first alternate, gets no credit for a selection, because he suffered a broken fibula in Week 16. It appears after Mariota, Andrew Luck (who had recent shoulder surgery) and Alex Smith were, in some order, the fifth and sixth choices. Smith will play, as will Andy Dalton who looks to have been seventh. Trevor Siemian and Tyrod Taylor also passed on invitations because of injuries, which got the league to Rivers, the 10th guy in a 16 team conference. all the more reason they shouldn't play the game, declare full rosters and have the skills competition, but don't let people so far down the list add a Pro Bowl appearance to their resume also, who added the filter that turns T om B rady into Trump's Bitch? I can't decide whether it's amusing or obnoxious Edited January 25, 2017 by oochymp Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
