Probowl selections - No Bills Selected

[DieHardBillsFan]

White only has had one pick this year. ProBowl's are for players with numbers. Not that he isn't a top 5 CB in the league let alone the AFC. Just would not have expected his selection.

Agree with this.

 

Several solid players but great player? No. I don't see one great player on the roster. 

Also agree. There are a lot of snubs that deserve it more than most Bills players.

Jay, is that possibly a star trek next generation reference, when Geordi is on the hallow deck with the designer of the Enterprise D trying to figure out a way out of the ancient mine field?

 

...or did I just show my geek card?  

[row_33]

Gilmore and Brady (dubious this year) were the only Pats

Gilmore has been their best player. No doubt about it.

It actually wasn’t, it was a Simpsons reference. But I’m wearing Spider-Man underwear if you want some company in the geek department.

Jay, she makes a references along the lines of "You have to try my..." and I believe it was Scungilli.

 

I am bugged that I missed that it was a Simpson's reference!

 

...good stuff all the way around.

Disappointing yet there's still an opportunity, many who are selected maybe on a team that will play in the Super Bowl and will opt out.

Lorenzo Alexander says Bills must win more

Leave it to 35-year-old Bills captain Lorenzo Alexander to put everything into perspective despite having a Pro Bowl caliber season and not even getting the nod as an alternate.

"Obviously when we have a great defense you want guys to get rewarded," Alexander said. "There's a couple of factors that go into that. Obviously us not having a great record ourselves, and then there are a lot of good football players. When you look at the list you're like, 'OK, well who do you replace?'You replace him with some of our guys then it's an up-cry for that same guy that got replaced. It's hard. You got a lot of good talent and that's what the NFL is all about. Next year when guys have a chance, we've gotta win. And when you win you get the fan vote up because everyone's chatting about what you're doing. And then people around the league recognize winners and then they're more apt to vote for you over another guy. And that's what it comes down to."

...Tre hit a couple of speed bumps, but he has been solid overall.......one of the commentators (senior moment: Tasker??) called Lorax the "ageless wonder" when he came up with that big 3rd down stop....oh well.....Pro Bowl=Tidy Bowl...........

Although Carucci report Kyle is 1st Alternate-

 

 

They actually have 4th alternates? The Pro Bowl is a joke now.

[TroutDog]

None of this is surprising given the record and the blow-outs to begin the year.

People actually care about the Pro Bowl?

many players have bonus money tied to making the Pro Bowl

which is why it should be a League choice and not a Fan choice.  

 

 

whats it also say if you make  the Pro Bowl but bow out for some reason other than a major injury.  

 

[LABILLBACKER]

The Pro Bowl might as well be a flag football game played on the beach. I care about winning the afce and consistently going to the playoffs each year. Not how many Bills make a popularity contest.

Kind of thought Hauscka and White would make it. Not that I was planning on watching either way though.

The thing about special teams players, at least with fan voting, the average fan doesn't know anybody more than Vinatieri, and their own kicker. Plus, Hauscka had been missing a lot during the voting. Those of us who know, understand it's mostly the new holder, but most people just see the misses.
