It's sad that TD will probably never make a Pro Bowl due to 3-4 OLB's and 4-3 OLB's being grouped together. They really just need to make a damn edge rusher position and lump all the 4-3 DE's and 3-4 OLB's together. 

They need to either remove or greatly reduce the fan voting aspect. How would you put together a team with them split out? Im not saying it can't be done but how?

I think I actually just had a better idea since you're right that splitting out edge rushers into their own separate group would be too complicated and make positional groups likely too complicated for an average fan to understand.

So since they don't even do teams by conference anymore and there are roughly 16 3-4 teams and 16 4-3 teams in the NFL, they can just separate the voting for the front 7's of those two defensive alignments. Then whenever it is time to do that stupid draft or whatever they can just choose between the 3-4 and the 4-3 defense and they get the entire front 7(starters and backups) for whichever one they choose.

That way 4-3 OLB's get their due and 3-4 DE's not named Watt get their due.

So, looking at Panthers pro bowl history, looks like we sent 7 players in 2013 and 8 players in 1996.  Sure hope we can at least match our 2013 total!

Here are the 8 Panthers I'm voting for the most consistently.

  • Cam
  • Greg
  • Kalil
  • Turner
  • Luke
  • TD
  • Josh
  • KK

I've also thrown in votes for Norwell and J Stew and Gano.
