Probowl selection Peppers/ Williams in Beason out

Recommended Posts

Well, we know that the Pro Bowl can be a stupid popularity contest some years. Regardless, I love seeing Panthers representing the team in the Pro Bowl.

So, who makes it?

All I know, if Beason doesn't make it, I will completely flip poo. I think he has the best chance to make it from our team and has absolutely lived up to his "Beast" nickname on every single snap through these first 16 games so far.

Peppers is 7th in the NFC regarding sacks. D-Will and J-Stew are both in the top 10 in rushing in the NFC, but I figure both are long shots now, considering Stewart's late surge and Williams' late drop out.

Even though our O-line has been banged up, we have great guys that won't get any attention. However, I think Kalil is a top 5 center in the NFL and deserves a Pro Bowl spot.

Any other input from you guys?

if we're lucky......none.

pro bowl is a joke. just a popularity contest where you play in a meaningless game but still risk injury.

players come back and tell the teams, "hey! i'm popular now and pretty special cause i got this here "honor" so i'm going to need more money cause somehow that makes me more valuable. pay me or trade me."

    • They can get film of all the games? Every team? Wow! Who knew… Our games with them are big examples of why they are in  the CB market so hard.   It is the study they do getting ready for the games.  Preparing to play against is a little different than just analyzing film in scout mode. Deeper dive. Then you are analyzing post game too.  This goes to why players often change teams but stay in the division. The opponents know each other on a higher level.  Plus if you lost to us, you used to get fired. Now you have to trade your first round pick. Moving up on the world. 
    • I honestly can’t believe this team’s turnaround this season. It’s surreal. Figured healthy we’d be fringe playoffs and with another lottery pick could finally turn the corner, but we don’t even need that. This group is ready. We haven’t played remotely well the last 5 games and yet still blew out 5 bad teams by 16+ each game like it was casual practice. We had a few solid teams with Kemba and Big Al but this is easily our best group since the original Hornets moved to NO. Man, what a shift in culture this new ownership group and front office has brought. So damn happy to see it after years of suffering and consistently meaningless games in this stretch of previous seasons.   Only 2.5 games out of the 6 seed, although Miami, Atlanta and Orlando have been playing well too. Gonna be a fun final stretch, hopefully we can get a top 8 seed at the very least. Celtics tomorrow will be a good test. Would be huge to keep the road winning streak up against a very hot top team on the 2nd half of a back to back. We’ve played Boston pretty well the last few years with much of this same group despite sucking so I do feel pretty good about it. Kon is due for a huge game coming off a few cold shooting games (although despite the poor shooting he’s been contributing well with defense, assists and rebounds).
    • It amazes me how underrated Horn has become after he finally was able to stay on the field. Sure last year wasn’t perfect but he was still a huge reason for our rebound defensively and I’d say he’s easily a top 10 corner. You don’t want to see Mike Jackson as our top corner. Any player is available for the right price but I’d be extremely hesitant to move Horn even for a big haul from LA.
