Probowl selection Peppers/ Williams in Beason out

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."

    • He makes a good point about Wallace.  In fairness to Wallace it is hard to play your position as freely as you need to when your defensive line is getting pushed around like ragdolls.  One of the greatest attributes a defensive line has is sucking up blocks, freeing up your linebackers.  Our defensive line couldn't suck up a lollipop more or less blocks.  I think Evans, Sanders and Tremble are going to be a really nice TE group.  I can see all three getting time on the field.  If Sanders can improve as a blocker teams won't be so inclined to believe it is a pass play whenever Sanders is on the field.  Ryan Fitzgerald, I think was an awesome pick-up. Hopefully he can fill our kicker void. Luke Kandra many turn out to be our next Norwell.  Everything I have heard about him says he's a beast.  He needs some refinement, but the good news is he's got Hunt and Lewis (arguably the best guard tandem in the league) to learn from. 
    • Great teams build through the draft and have several young players that start that are on rookie contracts. It's important to hit on players in rounds 4 thru 7.  These should be future starters and solid depth.  When you hit on most of your picks you free up a lot of cap space for those one- or two-year players to fill spots you are thin at. No GM is going to perfect on all their picks.  You're going to whiff every once in a while.  That was Hurney problem.  He'd nail the first pick but after that it was reach after reach and we couldn't get any depth on this team. I'm excited about Morgan as our GM and hopefully he'll be around a long time.  It will be even better if Canales can continue to grow as a head coach, both in the development of young players and play calling. I remember last season after Young came back in the lineup and started to perform well.  We saw different plays I had only seen other teams use.   If Canales's play design and play calling continue to grow. Morgan and Canales will be linked together for a long time.  It would be nice to see a Coach and GM together for a decade or two. Go Panthers
