2009 Pro Bowl


...more players may make it, if these players decide not to join, or become injured/unavailable.

Can't believe Ben didn't make it. He led his team to comebacks and the defense he be facing can't beleive it.

And Matt Cassel why didn't he make it either.

I agree with you there, Nothing against Brett Favre, he had a good year, but compared to Matt Cassel, and more importantly Philip Rivers, who I think should have gotten in, I think Brett's inclusion was more of a legacy vote, rather than what he accomplished this year. But we don't know how the rest of the regular season will play out, or what the playoffs will bring, so we'll just have to wait and see.

Maybe I'm a little biased but where's John Abraham at?
And defiantly Calvin Johnson.

Roethlisberger has had a really solid year, and has made a few nice drives, but I don't think he's one of three deserving QBs to make it, from the AFC this season. And Favre and Cutler (who both got in) weren't spectacular. Cassel, Rivers, and Pennington may have been more deserving.

The NFC has the best defensive ends in the league, and it was a shame that John Abraham got left behind. The Pro Bowl should carry four DEs.

And Calvin Johnson was pretty deserving, but being on a horrible team really hurt his chances. The same with Greg Jennings. Maybe either one could have replaced one of Arizona's receivers (although that'd be hard to argue because both are great).

I sure would have liked to see Philip Rivers in the Pro Bowl..

I think the AFC will win, with Ed Reed, Troy Polamalu, and Ray Lewis on defense, I think the AFC will take the win.
I do like the NFC though, my fave team is the Giants (my bro is a Giants fan and is hoping the NFC will win.)

I think it has to do with how long they leave in Peyton Manning, because last year he started and got them a nice cushion between the NFC and the Derek and Big Ben screwed it all up.

Boy way to d**k Rivers. I hate the guy so much, but he should have gone in rather then Favre.

I'm marginally happy with the rest of the picks.

About receivers, there are far too many freaking great receivers to see them all go.

Well this will probably be the most dominant safety tandem, with Polamalu and Reed for the AFC.

i dont get the jeff feagles pick, there are 10 punters in the NFC with higher punting averages than feagles and i beleve Steve Slaton should have gotten in over ronnie brown

Nah, Romo was injured for a while, and the other three NFC picks were more deserving.

One word why Feagles is in: clutch.

See what happened in their game against the Panthers? The Giants punter had a kick to down Carolina on their one yard line, then had a 50+ yard punt in overtime.
