It’s got nothing to do with the event itself, it’s about the accolade and it lessening the meaning of it, particularly for past players.

Just call it “The postseason games” or something dumb like that.  Then have pro bowl voting still and those players are then invited to participate in the event, but any alternates aren’t then considered “pro bowlers” 

I agree with that aspect.

The dumbest part about the pro bowl is it affects compensation and hall of fame credentials 

Not really. 

There is a big difference between being named an All-Pro and being selected to a Pro Bowl. Obviously, being named as an All-Pro carries much more cred than a Pro Bowl selection.

I hate the new format.  The old games were easy cash on the overs once the players stopped competing. 

Players these days don’t need the pay day of the Pro Bowl. Even the lower paid players are earning enough money to not want to risk an injury playing in a pointless game. Last year didn’t the winners take home around $100k and the losers around $50k?

Sounds nice to most of us, but to them, I can understand why some turn it down or half heartedly it if they play.

I don't care about them making money, I was talking about me making money!

The NFL Pro Bowl has become one of the more disgusting, disgraceful events in all of sports.  

It's past time to just eliminate it in terms of an event. Just do the voting, name the roster, and move on. When you get down to 6th and 7th alternates it's just absurd. It doesn't mean anything.

      Statistical reasons to Scratch Ickey from returning as a LT--Even in 2027

      By Soul Rebel · Posted

      Sound write-up MHS, as always.  Agree that the smart move that forward thinking franchises make would be drafting a tackle early, if not for sure in R1, depending on who's there. Based on early predictions we're choosing between Fano and Proctor. No brainer here...Fano all day. Proctor does not move the needle for me. In my mind, Icky has less future here than Brooks does. I love Icky, but he has been average as a top-10 pick, one good year where you saw the potential...and that was this year. He's built like a RT and his strengths are there, but he's always played left. I also feel like part of what has held him back from being elite, was his work ethic. He was known for it coming out, but feel like he fell right at home in Carolina and maybe didn't push himself as hard as he needed to. Throw in a major crucial injury that will take time to recover and a historical low return rate to current form, and the outlook is not great. Fano can play both sides and we need to also plan for Moton's departure. Either way, delaying drafting a tackle early this year will hurt us down the line. Our current OL is overpriced and needs to start adding draftees to start balancing out the inevitable changes coming in the next 2-3 years.  As others have said, maybe Icky can replace Hunt or Lewis in a couple years when he's fully recovered....IDK. Also not a guarantee, but then you have to figure out his contract and it becomes even more clouded.
