Everyone's favorite analyst...and by favorite I mean he's the worst the NFL has ever had...Charles Davis discusses KB's shot of making the Pro Bowl.  Now, I'm not saying he necessarily should, but Davis' argument for why he won't is completely destroyed by the last few seconds of the video.  Davis says "to make the PB as a rookie your numbers have to be so gaudy that they can't not let you in."  And the video ends with the other guy saying KB is on track to have the most yards by a rookie WR since 2004 (I'm guessing Boldin).  I think it goes without saying that his TDs are on track to be the most in a long time too.  Well, AJ Green was a rookie Pro Bowl WR and if KB's numbers are on track to surpass Green's then that undermines Davis' reason for KB not making it.  If anything, what keeps KB out of the Pro Bowl will be the overall team's lack of success this year (barring a miraculous turnaround and strong last 9 game stretch).

Right now, no.

And I agree, as a rookie your numbers have to be so good they can't say no. Doesn't matter how he stacks up vs old rookies. Numbers have to beat out current guys by a fair margin bc there past gives them a Pro Bowl edge.

Shula is treating KB like a rookie when he's def not playing like one!!!

Cam should be throwing to KB's way 15 out of 10 times, but Shula wants all of his players to be average.

89 looked slow and old last year due to Shula. Cam and KB is looking like JAG when they should be killing defenses every single week.

      This.  He knows where the seam is about to open, cuts, and accelerates hard. He’s slippery and tacklers always seem to be taking awkward angles to get to him. No dancing. Runs low and powerful. Almost never goes backwards for a loss. We’ve rarely had the guy who bounces off of tacklers. It’s nice seeing another one.

      I can't speak for others but yes I read it. The conclusions are based heavily around the use of the statistical metric DYAR created by football outsiders and used by ESPN for this article. It only includes players whose production began in 2000. But excluding HOF running backs who produced BIG in an iteration of the NFL that was not yet catered to making things much easier for offenses in order for them to prop up more recent candidates is rather absurd and seems like just playing favorites regardless of where one might fall on their opinion of the use of the metric in question.
