I really think Barnett and either Al Harris or Charles Woodson need to get in the pro bowl. These guys have been spectacular for the Packers.

I can't believe Al Harris has never been selected to the pro bowl.

Al Harris. There we go. I couldn't remmember his name. Even though he mugs WR's a lot, hes still a beast.

Yes! Barrett Ruud vote!

I watched him in the Tennessee game, and boy... he's EVERYWHERE.

Michael Boley deserves some mention, he's been all over the field this year.

DeAngelo Hall.. lol.

I don't think Tommie Harris deserves a trip this year, although he is a great great player. He's been banged up this year playing at about 70%.

Peanut Tillman deserves a trip to the pro bowl. Hall is garbage.

G0A, this is why you get blasted for being a homer. Griffin? Fletcher over Urlacher? Taylor, McIntosh, Samuels, and Sellers all definitely deserve to go. I don't know about the rest so far.

Griffin was a pure homer pick cuz I honestly can't think of more DT's in the NFC. I guess you could say Pat Williams but he gets overlooked a lot.

I don't see the big issue over Fletcher over Urlacher. I haven't been that impressed by Urlachers play this year. The Bears defense in general has been underachieving and struggling, especially against the run. Fletcher on the other hand has take us from the worst defense in the NFL to a top 3.

Urlacher had primary gap responsibility on both of Peterson's long TD runs yesterday and he wasn't anywhere close to where he was supposed to be. Cutback runners with quick acceleration have always made him look awful ordinary. But Urlacher has looked as good as ever in long spurts this year too. Tough call, but he's clearly behind Ruud and I'd put Tatupu in over him too at ILB. Fletcher has been good but not on that level.

Favre has been saved by a great defense this year. Put this year's Packers offense with last year's D, they'd be 1-5, and their would be calls for Aaron Rogers. Favre is not having a pro bowl season.

QB in the NFC is tough. Romo is a given, but who else? Hasselbeck, Kitna maybe?

At this point, Jeff Garcia is a lock.

Plus, he's a small, white, quick, and scrappy cast-off from the CFL, The voters seem to love that. (Doug Flutie)

Maybe, but he hasn't really been putting up eye popping stats. His team is good and he hasn't thrown a pick yet, though.

Oh, and KR/PR - who else but HESTER?

I vote Devin Hester/Adrian Peterson to play every offensive skill position in the Prep Bowl.

I can't help by make my opinions be known on just about every thread (At least for the AFC):

QB: Tom Brady, Peyton Manning, David Garrard (Screw you Carson Palmer)
RB: Joseph Addai, Sammy Morris ( :o ), Ronnie Brown
FB: Edit: Screw it, I'll go with the safe choice in Lorenzo Neal
WR: Randy Moss, Chad Johnson, Braylon Edwards, Dwyane Bowe
TE: Dallas Clark, Ben Watson
OL: Michael Roos, Logan Mankins, Kevin Mawae, Jake Scott, Ryan Diem (I'm not too sure about the last two, I'm pretty much just filling it out)
DE: Kyle Vanden Bosch, Jared Allen, Mario Williams, Ty Warren (Not too sure about this one either. All the Pats games I've seen, the focus have either been on either Adalius, Wilfork or the Corners)
DT: Albert Haynesworth, Vince Wilfork, Marcus Stroud, John Henderson
OLB: Keith Bulluck, Donnie Edwards, Bart Scott, Derrick Johnson
I/MLB: Adalius Thomas, Demeco Ryans
CB: Cortland Finnegan, Marlin Jackson, Champ Bailey (Edit:.. Oops, not Ty Law), Ike Taylor (?... Not too sure)
S: Bob Sanders, Chris Hope, Kerry Rhodes

Too many Titans, I know.

I see the Hill sig, yet I can't believe the comment. Is it due to the avi? Yes the D has been a great benny to Good Ol' #4 but, he's done more than his fair share.

Second in the L in yards? (yes I do know there is no running game, but with his performance this year, why stress the run?)

Okay, I'll give you the first and last week....not the best, but look at those middle ratings. And it is those middle games that very well could be considered the better of the defensive teams. Not to mention some REAL young receivers.

Sure, he's second in passing yards, he's had almost 50 more attempts than the next closest QB. Considering that the Pack's O is primarily short passes, Favre's completion percentage should be a lot higher than 64.8%.

A lot of his INT's have been particularly addle-brained. The pick last week that should've sealed the game for the Skins, if the D didn't force that fumble? Pro Bowl quarterbacks don't make those throws.

NFC QB's I'd put in the Pro Bowl before Brett? Romo, Garcia, Hasselbeck, Vinny T if he keeps playing like last week, maybe Warner, maybe Kitna, maybe even McNabb.
