The 3 we have there are probably the only ones we'll get, but I'll take it. I'm still hoping Robbie can make up some ground to get ahead of Akers as the kicker.
Lance Briggs seems to make it every year, don't see why he wouldn't this year either.
Mendenhall should not be a pro bowler. Also, you forgot OG and OT.
First off, why not Mendenhall at that last spot? Secondly is have not been keeping track of those two positions, lastly who cares about those two positions?

First off, b/c in the AFC he's 6th in yards per game, 8th in YPC (for anyone w/ >200 carries), 6th in rushing TD's, and 5th in total rushing yards.
Let's compare that to CJ, who should probably be the third back in: again, these rankings are among AFC RBs... 5th in yards per game, 5th in YPC (again, for anyone w/ >200 carries), tied for 3rd in rushing TD's, and 4th in total rushing yards. Statistically better in every category. I would argue that McFadden, Charles, and Hillis deserve the 3rd sport more than Mendenhall (in that order).
Secondly, that would have been fine if you wouldn't have included C solely so you could mention Pouncey.
We all want to root for "our guys" but GTFO w/ that homer ****.
EDIT: and Aaron Smith too...you can't be the best at your position for the year when you play half a ******* season

Where's Roethlisberger, and Hines Ward, and Mike Wallace, and Max Starks, and Casey Hampton, and Ike Taylor???? Come on there's nowhere near enough Steelers on that list
Man, that'd be so funny if McNabb made the Pro Bowl this year and the Redskins were forced to give up a 3rd round pick to the Eagles instead of a 4th round pick.
Pollard, in the Pro Bowl? I was under the impression that he has been underwhelming this year.
Pretty much another linebacker, extremely underwhelming in pass coverage but from what I have seen (I haven't watched every Texans game) he seems to be laying the lumber and playing well to decent against the run.

How about Cameron Wake. He only left off the league leader in sacks.

Why would a 3-4 rush-backer need to go to a game to play in the 4-3 where he can't blitz? Oh that's the right the Pro Bowl is horse ****. Sorry my bad, ignore this post.

They're still considered OLB's and get honored for their output during the season. I have no problem with a guy like Wake getting voted in. Hell Merriman made it for about 4 years straight.

It wouldn't be a problem if they correctly merged 3-4 OLB and 4-3 DE positions. Since they are nearly identical.
NFC:
QB- Michael Vick
RB- Adrian Peterson
FB- Heath Evans
WR- Roddy White
TE- Tony Gonzalez
T- Chad Clifton
G- Josh Sitton
C- Shaun O'Hara
DE-Julius Peppers
DT- Ndamukong Suh
OLB- Clay Matthews
ILB- Brian Urlacher
CB- Charles Woodson
FS- Antrel Rolle
SS- LaRon Landry
K- David Akers
P- Ben Graham
Ret- Devin Hester
ST- Heath Farwell
Don't care about the AFC, someone else can post it.
LOL @ Chad Clifton and Charles Woodson being the top vote-getters at their position. I don't know how Clifton got all those votes. He's wearing down and might not make it that long being able to walk.
And Woodson isn't even the Packers best CB anymore. Tramon Williams covers a lot better than Woodson.
I'm happy for Chuck, but still, Tramon has been better for sure.

Mike Wallace, Maurkice Pouncey, Casey Hampton, James Harrison, Lawrence Timmons, Troy Polamalu all have good chances.
Out of them i would say, Harrison, Timmons and Polamalu make it in.
I'll be suprised if Timmons gets in over Mayo. Mayo has been putting up a ton of tackles, and is going to get a lot of votes.
I'd really love to see some Mike Wallace love get him into the Pro Bowl. He really has had a great season. He's 5th in the league in receiving with over 1100 yards, and has 9 touchdowns. There's a lot of good AFC receivers, I would think Wayne and Bowe are certainly going to make it, but I'd love to see Wallace get in.
Troy and Harrison should be locks. Hampton is iffy, Wilfork definitely deserves a spot more. I think Timmons earned it more than Mayo, but I think Lewis and Mayo get the bids. Pouncey and Wallace I think could get left out because of the fan vote and the fact that other players have reputations behind them.
