No Pro Bowl for Kurt Warner??

[TJ]

According to Mike Sando on ESPN, Kurt Warner is 4th in voting for NFC QBs behind Drew Brees, Eli Manning and Jason Campbell. He is about 27,000 votes behind J.C.

Utter blasphemy if Warner isn't in the Pro Bowl this season after all of the MVP talk.

 

[sportznutt]

Subjectively yes, but those are still 3 great QB's in 2008.

 

[Sandan]

Compared to Warner this year, give me a break damn popularity contest

 

[crisper57]

He'll get in. The DC rats are out voting in force. The other voters will get him in.

LOL! Did you actually call Jason Campbell a "great" QB?

 

[TJ]

Eli Manning and Jason Campbell are "good" QBs. Kurt Warner and Drew Brees are "great" QBs

 

[HeavyB3]

The flaw of letting people vote, people are idiots.

 

[abomb]

Several threads on this.

Good lookin' out.

 

[moklerman]

I would actually enjoy seeing Warner win the MVP and not get into the pro bowl. That "might" force some change.

 

[Spielman]

It's also a flaw of having people vote long before the season is over, and having the voting finish up before the final couple of games have even been played. As long as that's the case, it's hard to take the pro bowl very seriously.

 

[TJ]

So here's the plan:

Since we play the Giants this weekend, we hit Eli below the knees, knocking him out for the season. Then, Kurt is a lock for the Pro Bowl!!!

I KEED I KEED

Curt may have the distinction of being the first MVP not voted to the Pro Bowl. And if this happens, maybe, just maybe, they'll end the silliness of fans picking who goes to Hawaii.

Who is Curt, does he play with Antron ?

the Pro-Bowl is for the fans. The All-Pro list is for the players. Hell, a lot of players don't even want to go to the Pro-Bowl. Not sure why this always ruffles some many of your guys feathers. We all know the Pro-Bowl is a popularity contest so who cares who's voted on to it?

 

[Renz]

Don't the players and coaches also vote for the Pro Bowl? I thought the fans counted for 1/3 of the voting and players/coaches counted for the other 2/3.

 

[Renz]

I looked it up, the fans count only 1/3 towards who makes the Pro Bowl or not. With the players and coaches voting, there's no chance that Kurt doesn't make it.

I'm assuming some players may have incentive clauses in their contract regarding the PB. They might care.

I wasn't sure whether or not that was the rule, because your general fan doesn't know anything about football.

Good, Kurt should get in
