Crazy the NFL INT leader in Kerby Joseph with the Lions isn't even on the ballot!

 

And apparently it's going to cost him player performance bonuses next year of almost $4 million...

 

Ridiculous...he should be pissed although they will likely make him one of the highest paid safeties soon enough.

Yea I don’t understand why organizations still include pro bowls as escalators in contracts. All pros and statistics based escalators should be the norm not the joke of a pro bowl

Nope, this isn't in the contract, this is part of the NFL's player performance bonuses/escalators. If players drastically outperform their contracts, they get player performance bonuses and it's structured in 3 levels. He already hit the first 2 levels, level 3 would have been making the Pro Bowl.

The way the voting works I'm guessing Allen doesn't get in.  Players and coaches will pry give the nod to Lamar, Mahomes, and Burrow because it's always been a popularity contest.  There's other elements involved that tip the scales in those three players favor that I won't get into.  I remember Reuben Brown making it every year even though he didn't deserve it some years.  Mahomes will get in for the same reason.

 

I'm going to predict that only Dion Dawkins is selected.  Cook is pry around 40% as he'll pry come down to him, Mixon, or Chase Brown for that third spot with Taylor and Henry as locks.  His lead leaguing 15 TD's may get him in.  You could make a great case for Christian Benford but he pry doesn't have enough name recognition. 

Allen the starter:

Fair. We don’t have superstars other than Josh. Dion is very good

 

[T.E.]

Remember in 2021, when Allen had 40+ TDs and didn't make it because Lamar Jackson went instead during a year where he had 16 TDs and 13 INTs?

 

Entire thing is a complete joke now. Guys under 25 won't believe this, but it used to be a legitimate and fun game.

but i read here hamlin sucks????

[Ya Digg?]

So the Ravens have 9 pro bowlers and the Bills have 2. Interesting…

[Chandler#81]

I’m glad Spencer Brown got noticed. He could become a regular PBer..

I’m the one that said it! 🤷‍♂️

Christian Benford is a major snub imo.  Lock em up long term, make Benford a cornerstone.

 

Taylor Rapp is deserving too imo.  Groot too.  Lock him up too, when we re-sign Benford.  Signing Groot and Benford is a stellar move imo

Will love arguing with Ravens fan about Lamar’s value to his team now.  And Josh is also named the starter.  This all bolsters Josh’s case.

So, besides Josh the Bills have one other offensive starter.

 

Besides Jackson, the Ravens have 5 other starters.

Four other offensive players outside Jackson. Allen clearly working with less - MVP secured.

[Gregg]

Cook should be on the list. Next to Allen he is our best player on offense.

Yea no Cook is ridiculous. 5 more TDs than Mixon. 

[YoloinOhio]

Cook should be 1st team

 

very surprised to see Oliver and kincaid

 

happy for Hamlin and Benford. Great stories

 

josh over Lamar as pro bowl starter Would make Lamar as mvp look really weird

So there are 5 RT in the AFC better than Brown, but yet only 3 safety's better than Hamlin??

According to Pro Bowl voting, he’s comparatively better than Benford, Bernard, Spencer Brown, Rapp and Rousseau
