Pro Bowl Skills Challenges

[Mr. Scot]

I've heard several people say The Pro Bowl should just be this. I'd have no problem at all with that change.

Yeah and put it back in Hawaii to give the players and their families a real vacation

Far more entertaining than the farse of a "game". The game itself is utterly useless.

Lol at Jarvis Landry throwing the ball better than Lamar Jackson. 
 

I think Landry was a QB in HS or something, but  that has to be embarrassing.

How about the skills challenge, then a party for the players and fans, they get a trophey & a bonus and we call that it. The game is just a terrible waste of time and completly unnecessary. 

[Mr. Scot]

This bit from Schefter was pretty funny too...

The league has been using it to experiment with stuff.

That's not really a good enough reason to keep it around either.

Was McCaffrey in any of the skills things?

[Snake]

Just expand the skills challenge and your good. The players like it and so do the fans.

I was thinking that a game of flag football would be a change.

The game now is basically 2 hand touch

Landry crushed some dodgeball too.

Yeah, I haven't watched the actual Pro Bowl in many years. I'd much rather they flesh out the skills challenges and make that the whole weekend.

The more pro football players become massive muscled specimens of athletic perfection, using highly scientific dietary and training regimens to condition their bodies for peak performance, making the game ever more violent in it's collisions, the more it seems playing any kind of all star game where the outcome is meaningless seems a bad idea. I concur, let the Pro Bowl become about skill display, which is a change of pace and far more interesting than the dullsville game with vanilla gameplans and common sense half speed play.
