I'd doubt it unless his numbers increase. He has alot of comp too...but he is starting to create a buzz at his position. 

If he keeps up his play it's possible. Maybe as an alternative player at best though. Esp with our W/L record as it is. 

I actually didn't think Burns was going to make it over Reddick so who knows. 

His play has been impressive.

The actual game will go away but the selection to the team will still happen.

Yes and the players are still rewarded with bonus money but I don't know if there is a percentage of that based on winning match ups and tournaments. It was time for it to go. It was no longer entertaining, especially when a high number of selections would opt out.

Some opted out, especially the ones in the Super Bowl.  Game was boring but they have a replacement events that sound like it will be fun to watch,

I was surprised both Sanchez and Vilma hyping him up. So it is obvious he is gaining traction and as the choice is in large part a popularity contest he has a shot.

I think he needs "smack the guard on his ass and the level the qb" kind of highlight play the tip the scale.

I remember when they actually played

Ok, for those interested, the Pro Bowl has been renamed to the Pro Bowl Games. There is a flag football game, and the website only describes a week-long celebration with fun skills competitions but does not mention what those may in fact be. At 1 point I had heard that there would be a players Madden tournament, but maybe that is not included in the official slate of Pro Bowl Games week.

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
