I've always been correct you've just all been reluctant to agree with me.

Just from a Packers point of view it is ridiculous Rodgers never made the pro-bowl. Equally Woodson was selected when Tramon Williams has been better and how Chad Clifton has been selected i'll never know. If any Packers lineman should go it should be Josh Sitton.

It's just a popularity contest that isn't popular anymore, the reason they have moved it to before the SB is because more people will be interested in watching it because theres still a game after it, I wouldn't watch it if it was still after the SB because it's basically a payed vacation for the players and not even upto the standard of most preseason games. With it filling in the week between the championship games and SB I will watch it because it passes the time and gives my an nfl "fix".

I don't know how many votes have been polled this year but I wouldn't be suprised if it has been dropping year on year.

Having said that Cassell is a lot better statistically this year than a lot of others and that's why he was so high on the voting

More like it shows once and for all you were wrong about him but as always you will still think you are right and the experts (including me ) are wrong.Anyway Rodgers will still have a chance to play if someone drops out as he won't be in Dallas Well done Matt well deserved

This year Matt Cassell had the 4th most passing TD's in the AFC and 3rd least INT's in the AFC and they are the first stats people look at aswell as how many wins the players team had therefore he deserves his place in the team

I'd be interested to see a stat for Cassel and his passing when he's had to actively win the game. He's had a good season no doubting it. But he certainly isn't a top QB and to use a call up to the Pro Bowl as evidence of him suddenly being one is daft. He has ridden a superb running game all season long. Look at the stats he posted up in the playoffs when the Ravens shut the running game down.

KC Passing Yards: 30th in the NFL
KC Rushing Yards: 1st in the NFL

That is all.

Al Saunders is the New OC in Oakland. Only English OC in the league, and his playbooks are known for being huge and complicated, but he did run the #1 offense in the league from 2002-2005. And that was with Trent Green at QB.



It could be about to get even more fun, rumours of Ochocinco to Oakland.

Tramon Williams added to the pro bowl. Highlights just how terrible the pro-bowl/pro-bowl voting is.
