LAKE FOREST, Ill. - Middle linebacker Brian Urlacher will lead a brigade of six Bears to the Pro Bowl, the team's largest contingent since sending six players following the 1990 season.Five of the Pro Bowlers play on the Bears' No. 1-ranked defense. While Urlacher will make his fifth trip in six NFL seasons, safety Mike Brown, cornerback Nathan Vasher, linebacker Lance Briggs and defensive tackle Tommie Harris are being honored for the first time.The Bears offense will be represented by center Olin Kreutz, a Hawaii native who will be making his fifth straight Pro Bowl appearance in his home state.
Derrick Brooks, Ronde Barber and Josh Bidwell will represent the Buccaneers on the NFC Pro Bowl squad.
The Philadelphia Eagles today announced that linebacker Jeremiah Trotter was named to the NFC Pro Bowl squad.It is Trotter's fourth selection to the Pro Bowl during his eight-year NFL career.Last year, the Eagles originally had nine Pro Bowl selections with running back Brian Westbrook joining in later.
He didn't really deserve it this season but he should've gone ahead of Vick last season so I'd say it all worked out for him.I heard Delhomme made it
Does the Pro Bowl have to have at least 1 player from each team? If so, Law shouldn't be much of a surprise. After all, who else deserves it. Mawae or Martin are the perenniel Bowlers, but they're hurt.Totally unworthy....He has been mediocre at best this year...Jets: Ty Law
He may have 6 picks, but he has been out of position, slow, and gotten burned numerous times all season...
he has also taken an absurd # of penalties...
Talk about skating by on your rep...

Wow, no Eli?Thought I read he was the top vote-getter from the fans (as far as NFC qbs go)Per NFL Radio

Wow. What an unbelievably bad pick. Manning, Brunell and maybe even Bledsoe should be going ahead of Vick.Per NFL Radio

Fitz, post 25Curious to see which of Fitz/Boldin gets it. That ought to be interesting.
Wow. I don't like it. Identical receiving yards (Anquan having 10 more rushing yards), Fitz has 2 more TDs, but Anquan also missed a few games with an injury.Per game, Anquan has been better.Fitz, post 25Curious to see which of Fitz/Boldin gets it. That ought to be interesting.
From the article: "Only 3 linebackers in NFL history have made more Pro Bowls."Is there really any question anymore about his HOF credentials?Derrick Brooks...will represent the Buccaneers on the NFC Pro Bowl squad.
Agreed, I think Boldin is the best receiver on that team.Wow. I don't like it.

Seems like there are a few of these every year. Name recognition picks.Michael Vick on the pro bowl team is an absolute joke.
And on the other side, so is Joey Porter. Completely ridiculous.

The problem is there are QBs who are not only having better seasons but their teams are as well. It's one thing to slide Vick under the guise of "all he does is win" which is why he got selected last season and more deserving QBs were left out. It's another to select him when there are other considerably more legitimate options on teams having better seasons than the Falcons or the same as the Falcons.I am not a fan of the Falcons or Vick, but it seems that in the real world of football (as opposed to fantasy where stats are king), Vick is a player that opposing teams absolutely must game plan around. While his ability to make plays with his feet don't add up to fantasy points, that ability keeps drives alive and ultimately helps put points on the board.
My personal opinion is that while Vick's weakness as a pocket passer will perpetually limit the ultimate success of his team in the postseason, his strength as an elusive and mobile QB is the reason his team is as competitive as it is.
I can understand why the fans wouldn't vote for him, but I can understand why the other 2/3 (players and coaches) would.
