Jebus, this thread has more dirty tainted homers than a Barry Bonds MVP season.

 

I'd love to join in the blatant homerism and yell and scream about my players not getting in, but I'm a Giants fan. :D

Has anyone confirmed for sure the two weird Green Bay picks (Driver over Jennings/Harris over Woodson) - seems really strange that the two are ont he same team, and there's no f'n way either Driver or Harris should be there. It's one thing to debate Welker and whoever or Taylor and FWP (in both cases, they got it right), but Driver vs Jennings, Colston or a number of others doesnt' even seem close. And I watched Harris a few times. All I can say is for a cornerback, he makes a good safety.

At least this locks in that Jon Gruden should be NFC coach of the year - Gruden has coached a team with apparently less elite talent than SF, Chi, Phi, or Was to a division title.

take off your HOMER GLASSES

the 4 guys that made it:

Starters:

Moss: I dont think i need to post his stats, do I?

Wayne: 82/1280 9 he has 14 less catches but 276 more yards and 1 more TD then Welker

BackUps:

Housh: 101/1028 11 TDs he has 5 more catches 24 more yards and 3 more TDs then Welker

Edwards: 69/1170 13 TDs he has 27 less catches, 166 more yards and 5 more TDs then Welker

 

This has nothing to do with regards to respect about Welker...the four guys voted in were all deserving to be in over him.

 

And let's not forget that not everyone that has a great season can make it. It's been a great year for receivers....Wleker certainly deserves to go, but does he deserve it more than the 4 selected?

Pro Bowl tally:

 

Number of deceased players: 1

 

Number of players from teams that were 0-13 when voting closed: 1

 

Number of players from the 10-4 Jaguars: 0

 

Number of players from the entire NFC South: 0

 

I guess that if you want to make the Pro Bowl, you have a better chance of doing so by being dead than by playing in the old Confederacy.

Driver, who just eclipsed 1,000 yards in a season for the fifth time last week, even went so far to say if Jennings had been a first alternate, Driver would have considered giving up his spot so Jennings could go. Jennings, a second-year pro, leads the team with 12 touchdowns.
So why not step down anyway & let someone else go who is more deserving?

2. Clark, Miller and Winslow all deserve it more then Gonzo.

 

3. I agree that Freddy never gets his props and probably deserves it more the FWP but FWP does lead the league in rushing yards.

 

I think that Miller deserved a spot on the probowl roster. He may not have as many receptions or yards as some others but IMO he is the best true TE in the AFC. He is not a WR that lines up at TE. He blocks better than any TE I have seen this year, runs crisp routes, has good hands and has a nose for the endzone. A good case could be made for Miller.

 

I am amazed that someone that has rushed for over 10K yards in his career has yet to go to a probowl. Taylor is having another great year and is putting up good yards in a RBBC situation. Tayler deserves to be there this year as well.

...."It's something that's not really on my mind right now," Colston said. "You know, it would have been great, but we've got the Eagles coming in and it's pretty much a playoff game for us. ... We've got something special going here with a possible shot at the playoffs so that's definitely No. 1."

 

..."He absolutely deserves it," said Brees, who started in the NFL's all-star game last season after leading the league in passing. "Certainly, every year, there are guys who get left out of the Pro Bowl. There are so many great players and it seems like there are so many guys who are deserving and don't make it because ... there are only so many spots.

 

"That was unfortunate but Marques is the kind of guy who can take that in stride," Brees added.

 

...."I've got a lot of respect for the four guys that did make it and just to be kind of mentioned in that group is an honor for me," Colston said.
