Briggs is questionable, but the other three were pretty much locks. But someone explain to me why Jason Witten is in

Not sure who else you'd put in there. Frankly, I wouldn't have put Briggs in there at all.

I understand your point, but we only have one starter (peppers) & I am not counting Hester as a starter because it's special teams. We had a few more guys that should have been considered, IMO (Chris harris, Peanut Tillman, Idonije & Matt Forte)

The only one of those four I'd consider is Harris, and that's a long shot. The Bears picks are fine.

Agreed. The other defensive ends from the NFC are John Abraham and Justin Tuck. Can you really say Idonije has been better than either of them? Nope.

Safeties from the NFC: Nick Collins, Antrel Rolle and Adrian Wilson. Good players there.

DeAngelo Hall got in as a cornerback strictly because of his 4 INT performance against us. Otherwise, he wasn't good. The other two are Asante Samuel and Charles Woodson; two players who are light years better than Tillman.

Forte is the next most deserving Bear but he didn't deserve a spot over Turner, Peterson and Jackson.

The pro bowl snub was Aaron Rodgers.

Thanx for the info, ChronicKerr.

That's why I posted weeks ago in this thread that Chris Harris was deserving of the Pro-Bowl.

Urlacher and Briggs both pulled out of the pro-bowl.
