Probably the greatest indictment of how bad Russell Wilson was this season.

We're friends and I trust you, but I STILL had to go check the stats to see if that was right. Wow. Also threw 3 INTS.

Reasons #493 is that they use the event as an opportunity to create products for the hobby. Would be super easy (barely an inconvenience) to get oncard superstar multi-autos.

Is the NFL Experience still a thing? SB week is another chance to do that.

There are 16 teams in the AFC, and they need to fill 3 sports for QB.

Patrick Mahomes was named the starter.
Josh Allen and Joe Burrow were selected as backups.

The backups, to those backups, were Tagovailoa , Herbert and Lamar Jackson.

Mahomes is busy, he cant play in the Pro Bowl. Allen says hes too hurt, the same thing Tua, Herby and Lamar said.

So, the backups to those backs ups were Trevor and Huntley. To play alongside Burrow. And with that, we have our 3 QBs.

But we also have 8 QB's that can say they were voted to the Pro Bowl. Thats half the AFC right there.

It just shows that the Ravens fans voted more than the Broncos fans, or Titans, Raiders, Steelers, Browns, Jets, Texans & Pats.

I'm going to assume, they called Russ Wilson, Carr or Mack Jones before they got the Huntly. And they all said they wouldn't do it. Even Davis Mills or Tannehill.

The good news is that I only threw two less touchdowns than a Pro Bowl quarterback this year. Maybe I'll get the call next year!!!

And, at the time he was selected as an alternate, he had started two games. Two.

Man, the AFC QBs weren't very good this year...

Man, that's the truth. But there had to be at least one player more worthy who was available to play.

Yeah, it's insane to think that those stats are legitimate. I would have double-checked it if someone else had posted it just the same. It's too far-fetched to be true, but here we are.

I wonder if there are any fines associated with pulling the injury card. Allen is "injured" but opting to play in the Pebble Beach Pro Am instead. I don't blame him one bit, but the league can't be happy with that.

ZERO chance this happens. They can't fine him. They send a letter to his agent but thats as far as it will go.

nah, he could just say he's not playing. They can't force you to participate in the dog and pony bowl.

Tyler Huntley has more Pro Bowl appearances than Jim Plunkett.

Let that sink in

I’ve long said the Pro Bowl should be turned into a skills competition and a glorified meet and greet with players.

Imagine being able to enter a hot dog eating contest against Aaron Donald. Or entering a Madden tournament and playing against Tyreek Hill. Being able to attend a film break down session with Belicheck.
