Brees replaces Big Ben (after Rivers passed on it as well)

Brees is 1st alternate, Rivers is 2nd alternate, Russell Wilson is 3rd alternate, Matthew Stafford is 4th alternate

Rivers is in as the replacement of the winner of Brady/Luck in the AFCCG

crazy that Brees wasn't in the Original Six QBs selected to the Pro Bowl, as he and Peyton Manning were the only two to finish Top 6 in passing yards, passing TDs, and QB rating:

#4 yards, #2 TDs, #4 rating -- Peyton Manning

#1 yards, #5 TDs, #6 rating -- Brees

There were 3 other QBs to finish Top 7 in each category, all 3 were in the Original Six selected to the Pro Bowl:

#1 yards, #7 TDs, #3 rating -- Big Ben

#3 yards, #1 TDs, #7 rating -- Luck

#7 yards, #3 TDs, #2 rating -- Rodgers

The other two in the Original Six selected to the Pro Bowl were:

#14 yards, #4 TDs, #1 rating -- Romo

#10 yards, #5 TDs, #5 rating -- Brady

as for Rivers, Wilson, Stafford being selected as 2nd to 4th alternates, it should have been three of these four:

#16 yards, #16 TDs, #10 rating -- Wilson

#5 yards, #10 TDs, #11 rating -- Matt Ryan

#8 yards, #8 TDs, #12 rating -- Rivers

#6 yards, #9 TDs, #15 rating -- Eli Manning

as for Stafford, not only should he be below those four, but also below Tannehill, Flacco, and Cutler:

#11 yards, #12 TDs, #14 rating -- Tannehill

#12 yards, #12 TDs, #16 rating -- Flacco

#10 yards, #10 TDs, #17 rating -- Cutler

#14 yards, #14 TDs, #21 rating -- Stafford

but as it is, Stafford, as the 4th alternate, has a good chance of going to the Pro Bowl...

Detroit Free Press yesterday:

"If two of Manning, Rodgers and Romo pull out of the game, as expected, Stafford would head to Arizona for Pro Bowl festivities next week."

    • The defense is 28 out of 32 in salary cap allocation for 2025. We have a ton of resources tied up in the offense including the highest paid OL in the league multiple 1st round WR's and multiple recent draft picks across the offense at TE and RB and we have two 1000 yard backs. Bryce and company couldn't get past Tyler Shough and his crew in 2 games. That's all there is to it. You can spin it and put the entire onus on the defense to your heart's desire it doesn't change the fact that this is an OFFENSIVE team now. If you want to argue that we should revert back to a defensive identity as we have been in the past which has brought us success then I will agree with you on that. But as it stands the onus is on the offense because that is where we have invested through the nose. Dave Canales and Bryce Young need to do a hell of a lot better than they have against the rebuilding Saints who without us should only have 2 wins this season.
    • Bryce is not trending up. He is the same QB he has always been. Bottom of the league in most categories.  If Canales thinks he can build a contender with Bryce then he is a bigger idiot then I thought.  Offense next year will have the same issues and be just as inconsistent as it was this year.  We have seen Bryce’a ceiling and it is 175 yards a game and that is not a QB you keep around as your starter. That is barely a backup.   
    • Looks like Darnold should have had at least 3 picks. That'll get ugly in the playoffs eventually. Can't deny his physical talent though. You either have that or you don't. Mike Macdonald is a legit coach.
