Pro Bowl announcement tomorrow

I was trying to rationalize how no Panthers made it. Then I figured, the record... then I saw that Kansas City has 5.. Mind blown. Oh well on the bright side you know the players are going to remember this and have an additional chip on their shoulder next year.

Yep.

Pro Bowl is about name recognition and early season stats for most positions. Gross has player respect and name recognition and that is a position where stats means little to nothing. Gross is our closet thing to a Pro Bowl lock.

Luke will struggle to be an alternate. His play vs others doesn't carry tons of weight in the matter

Gross... ur smokin dope...

You seem to confuse the pro bowl with who is playing the best at their position. They aren't the same.

When alternates are announced.....Gross and Smitty have best odds. Those odds have little to do with how they are playing this year and mainly name recognition and respect from peers

As I mentioned in the other thread, the biggest joke is Larry Fitzgerald being an alternate. He doesn't even have 800 yards. Outside top 30 in receiving yards! What a freaking JOKE!

I haven't seen where he ranks on the alternate food chain, just that he's listed as one. I'd venture to guess no higher than 3rd alt.

    • Either way there's some tough teams on the schedule this year, on paper anyways. 
    • Same. I would prefer a MNF game earlier in the season. As if more likely has some significance in case things go south this season. If we perform well enough we could even get another game forced to a Sunday night spot later in the season. 
    • Wanted to jump into this thread. Although I do not post anymore I do look in as there are a few old friends around. Loved hearing some of the names you mentioned.  Another  oldie is NanceUSMC.  He is the one who got me here from the old Observer forum.  Good guy and smart football guy. I have learned a lot from a lot of good Huddlers over the years, Over time. we have sadly lost a few who left this earth too soon.  Anyone who know of someone, it would be nice to try to make a list.  One of the more recent, CosmoGirl,  was someone that kind of hit hard.  Life sucks sometimes. Some of the best times were when we had our own tailgate and could meet up in person.  I think it made us better. Several dedicated volunteers, lead by LiverMush, started setting things up in the wee hours of each gameday morning.  Don't know all those regulars but I remember JakeFlake was one.  For you newbies...each game,  a Huddler (or a group) sponsored the food for each tailgate.  Eating was free but a donation was asked for.  At the end of the year those donations were used to buy bicycles for Toys for Tots.  Over the years Huddlers bought a lot of new bikes for kids for Christmas.  (I am guessing a couple of hundred each year.)  We had a good time getting together, got to make friends in person, and then got to feel like you were doing something good. It was truly a community. I got to meet Dan Morgan at one of our tailgates...he brought pizza from his restaurant.  How many of you remember that?  Glad the restaurant did not make it....lol. Not only have people changed, and come and gone.....but the entire nature and purpose has changed. Nothing lasts forever and we move on but we still like to think about good times. Same reason we take pictures. Want to ask a question I have not seen anyone else mention......who remembers    "The Couch" ?  We have argued, laughed, lived the ups and downs of football and dealt with a little real life along the way.  A thanks to  the Mods who keep this going.  I am sure they sacrifice a lot of their time out of love for the forum and the Panthers. Take care my friends and be well.  I will close with my new favorite quote which I think is greatly needed in these difficult times.
