Derrick Brown Snubbed

[OnlyPantherFaninMaine]

MVP of our defense and arguably the best defensive linemen in the league this season was left off the Pro Bowl rosters. Seattle’s interior going to feel that disrespect this Sunday. 
 

Jaycee Horn the only Panther elected.

Wow

[t96]

Pro Bowl has been an absolute joke for like 15 years now. Absolute scrubs get in every year when the initial dumbass voting happens and more especially when damn near every player picked initially and many of the replacements back out. fuging Tyler Huntley was a "pro bowler." And Luke won DROY without making the pro bowl. 

 

So this doesn't surprise me one bit and I don't care about it either.

Yeah agree with t96, Pro Bowl is not a worthy award and hasn't been for a while. People make the pro bowl on name recognition only all the time. All-Pro team selections is the real award for these guys.

I always feel like the Pro Bowl to a large extent rewards so many guys for the prior season vs the current one.   It's really weird.  DB missing last season really hurting him.  

we have seen that before with DB.  Dominate season.  No Pro Bowl.  Catches it the next year.

It shouldn't be voted by the fans, too many casuals out there who know nothing

[UnluckyforSome]

It matters to the players, at the very minimum it matters to the players financially.

My general observations:

• 6 Ravens selected. Why? They're not even that good this year.
• Only Jags player to get picked was their long snapper. That's insane for one of the better teams in the AFC this year.
• Travis Kelce making it is a joke at this point. He's a shell of his former self. Swifties voting I guess.
• Glad to see both Maxx Crosby and Brock Bowers make it for the Raiders despite the team being so awful. Both are top-3 players at their positions for sure.
• Who the hell is Drew Dalman?
• The Vikings being shut out is kind of crazy. Not their best year but there is a good amount of talent on that team.
• I'm positive the Panthers would have been shutout if not for Jaycee Horn having so many INTs.
• Derrick Brown is better than every DT that made it (on both sides) with the possible exception of Jalen Carter.

Staying under the radar. Hate he missed out on it, but we are all better when they think we're less than we are.

It's our job to change their minds, hopefully in February.

We all know he deserves it but it was also pointed out that he’d need to post 7 or more sacks prior to selection in order to get the recognition.  Hes got 5.  He’ll probably end up with 6-7.

Doesn't matter tho, we know what we got.

It's a  popularity contest unless you have some crazy stats.  Positions like DT are not going to pop with sacks or tackles so arguably the best defensive tackle in the game gets snubbed because he's on a team that doesn't get a lot of national media coverage.

Pro Bowl is largely irrelevant players dont even want to play it anymore

[PootieNunu]

Fan voting is a joke. Remove that poo so players that deserve it get to go, not just name recognition guys.
