The Pro Bowl is a joke. The players only care if they are selected for the first time or if they have an incentive clause in their contracts for selection.

Even I turned down presenting the Pro Bowl live on Sky a couple of times. "Dancing with celebrities in pads". Pick the teams, just don't play the game.

I agree the game is a joke but after the *** the Bears have been through in the last few years it’s nice just to have players recognised as some of the best in the game. I think it’s a joke that the fans get a say in the vote. Too many players get picked because it’s a popularity contest. I agree a proper panel should pick the teams but not bother with the game.

A friend of mine who played offensive line in the NFL in the 1980s told a great story about lining up for a play and the five offensive guys agreed to vote for all the four defensive linemen opposite them if they did the same. They all agreed and then the QB called the play and they carried on.

I loved watching Derek Henry at ‘Bama and he’s looking pretty special at the Titans

Go Tide!!

And this over protection of the quarterbacks is a bloody joke. Can’t tackle and land on them. Why are they different from the other 10 guys on the field?

I would say GO CARDS, but they are playing just as bad as they have been doing so all season.
At least they'll get #1 draft pick and hopefully fire Wilks in the morning.

Not goin well for the Steelers.

Think I’ve picked a new team each year, so I’m gonna pick a playoff team to keep the interest going. I’m going Seahawk’s

Back to the Steelers next year if I remember 🤣

The Black Monday carnage is in full flow. Todd Bowles (Jets) and Dirk Koetter went last night. Marvin Lewis in Cincinnati, Adam Gase in Miami and Vance Joseph in Denver all gone today and Steve Wilks in Arizona has told his coaches he is out as well.

Do you think do Chiefs defense do enough to give them a shot at the superbowl?

Thankfully Broncos have sacked Joseph - was always the wrong appointment , now I wouldn’t mind Keenan being given the boot as well. For some reason would be really interesting to see if Eli Manning would like a new final challenge

What’s the record for sackings post regular season and pre playoffs?
