Samuel and Scrabble were a push to me. Tiebreaker was the fan in me. Asomugha has really, really stepped up his game this year. Fabian Washington, too. I just wanted to get one of them some recognition.

Adalius Thomas better not get snubbed again this year.

Thomas has a tough road to hoe.

The AFC is littered with strong candidates at OLB:

Shawne Merriman
Shaun Phillips
Joey Porter
David Thornton
Mike Vrabel
DJ Williams
Cato June
Derrick Johnson
Ian Gold
Angelo Crowell
Rosevelt Colvin
Keith Bulluck
Eric Barton
Clark Haggans
Bart Scott

You can only vote for two.

Thomas would be a fine pick. But Scott would be, too.

Understood. It just seems to be very tough for rookies to make the pro bowl. Plus Parker's next 2 games are TB and Cleveland at home, he should rack up big numbers.

He will definitely make it this year. IMO he is a legit candidate for DPOY

LOL, if you say so, sport. Now I've heard it all....the Cardinals poor defensive play is due to Wilson?!??! I'd suggest you turn on the tube and watch a game or two before making assesments in the future, bud.

AFC

QB: Peyton Manning, Carson Palmer, Philip Rivers

RB: LT, Larry Johnson, Joseph Addai

FB: Lorenzo Neal

WR: Chad Johnson, Andre Johnson, Reggie Wayne, Javon Walker

TE: Antonio Gates, Todd Heap

OT: Tarik Glenn, Marcus McNeill, Jonathan Ogden

OG: Logan Mankins, Pete Kendall, Brian Waters

C: Dan Koppen, Jeff Saturday

DE: Jason Taylor, Derrick Burgess, Trevor Pryce

DT: Jamal Williams, John Henderson, Richard Seymour

OLB: Adalius Thomas, Shawne Merriman

ILB: Zach Thomas, London Fletcher

CB: Champ Bailey, Asante Samuel, Chris McAlister

SS: Kevin Kaesviharn

FS: Kerry Rhodes

K: Matt Stover

P: Brian Moorman

KR: Justin Miller

ST: Jarrod Cooper

NFC

QB: Drew Brees, Tony Romo, Marc Bulger

RB: Frank Gore, Tiki Barber, Brian Westbrook

FB: Justin Griffith

WR: Roy Williams, Steve Smith, Marques Colston, Darrell Jackson

TE: Alge Crumpler, Chris Cooley

OT: Jammal Brown, Walter Jones, John Tait

OG: Shawn Andrews, Steve Hutchinson, Jahri Evans

OC: Olin Kruetz, Jeff Faine

DE: Julius Peppers, Aaron Kampman, Leonard Little

DT: Pat Williams, Kevin Williams, Tommie Harris

OLB: Julian Peterson, Scott Fujita

ILB: Brian Urlacher, Chris Draft(obligatory homer pick)

CB: Terrence Newman, Charles Woodson, Lito Sheppard

SS: Adrian Wilson

FS: Brian Dawkins

K: John Kasay

P: Mat McBriar

KR: Devin Hester

ST: David Tyree

And before someone calls me a homer for putting Kasay up there over Gould, let me explain my reasoning. Yes, Gould is an impressive 26/27, but he hasn't even attempted a FG of 50+ yards in his 2-year career(much less made one). Kasay is 18/20 this season, but his only misses are from 53 and 65 yards. I think elite kickers should be able to make long field goals, can Gould do that? Another thing, has Gould actually had to make a pressure kick all season? Kasay has a game winner this season for what it's worth.

This is pretty damn on point for me too. Only notable changes I'd make are:

AFC TE's: Winslow & Gonzales
AFC SS: Sean Jones
AFC FS: Ed Reed
NFC WR: Donald Driver (instead of Darrell Jackson)
NFC ILB: Nick Barnett (instead of Chris Draft)

Tampa Bay isnt that terrible against the run are they?

Xulu Bak · #25 11-29-2006, 05:40 AM

Stats can be deceiving, but there is no way Ed Reed should be in the pro bowl over Kerry Rhodes...

Kerry Rhodes: 80 tackles, 4 sacks, 3 int, 6 PD, 3 FF, 1 FR
Ed Reed: 39 tackles, 0 sacks, 2 int, 2 PD, 1 FF, 0 FR

Textbook voting on a name, not how a player has played.

Steven Jackson should make the pro bowl also

I was extremely impressed with Rhodes at the Bears/Jets game.

Sippio · #28 11-29-2006, 05:45 AM

Man Lee Evans is/was so close.. damn good for nothing McGahee & O-line that force JP to have games with under 100 yards passing

... Yes it's true, i'm not blaming JP anymore because i see his upside.. It shames to admit how mediocre our 0-line is. But not to derail the ProBowl thread..

Aaron Schobel needs to be on some list..The dude is all-balls! to many here's surprise i don't make excuses for the Bilsl & their players often but Schobel is the bright spot on our D-line. It really hurts stats that the D is always exuasted because the offense is in CONSTANT 3 & outs.. I don't even know Schobels sack stats but i've a feeling their not top 5 in the AFC. Does run support count towards pro bowl recognition? I doubt it.. I don't mind him under the radar.. Phins & Jet fans will prop him, and i know Pats fans & Matt Light will too..<Works for me...

--Brian Moorman and Shane Lechler are both awesome. Moorman Buffalo, Lechler Oakland..lol But in Lechlers defense i do believe he would still own in teh wind & cold.. Moormans stats imo are easily #1 in the NFL right? He did pretty much win the Phins game for us.. Well besides Culpepper sucking..

-Jason Taylor is awesome. Man Jimmy Johnson is freakin amazing at drafting gems in mid-late rounds. JT is such a unique DE with his speed,strength & toughness,leadership..

I wouldn't really have a beef with any of those changes, the AFC tight ends in particular were really hard to decide on.

I almost put him, but I never see the bills play (see the chiefs way more than I want), and Allen is a very impressive complete young DE (something rare anymore) that just seems to have a knack for making a big play at the right time.
