Westbrook should have made it without exception.

Will all the respect Westbrook gets from players and coaches, you think he would be a shoe-in.

Westbrook doesn't have to play in the Pro Bowl but he should have been voted onto the roster and not as an alternate.

I have no problem with him being on the outside regardless.  There's 3 spots and they went to Tiki, Gore and Jackson.  Tiki vs Westy could be argued all day and I don't think anyone could make a strong enough argument for either player to definitively prove that he is the one that should be there. 

QB Eagles

Forget Tiki vs. Westbrook, I think they should both be in and Steven Jackson should be out. It's real close though, you can't argue that Westy was blatantly robbed.

QB Eagles

By the way, are NFC tight ends really bad enough that LJ makes alternate? Wow.

Eaglez

I'm just surprised because 2/3rds of the votes come from coaches and players. And players always talk about how elusive Westbrook is and how difficult he is to tackle, and coaches always talk about how difficult Westbrook is to game plan for because he can hurt a defense running and catching the ball. With 2/3rds of the total vote, you would think Westbrook could make the Pro Bowl active roster on those qualities.

The NFL should take one fan for each pro-bowl player and treat them to a weekend in Hawaii...that would make it really interesting.

Otherwise...isn't there an 'All-Pro' selection as well? Does that have any weight as far as the Hall Of Fame goes?

At least Dawk made it over Sean Taylor. That should be enough to ignite ES

$10 says he doesn't go

No way.  Maybe $1.


I'll bet a Benny he goes. (He said this evening on Siruis' "The Barber Shop" he is looking forward to going out playing one last game with his brother. sniff sniff).

Damn Reggie Brown has 8 TD's this year  :o

Westbrook got robbed. Over 70 catches for 4 TD's. Over 1000 yrds rushing for 7 TD's.

The PB is nothing more than a popularity contest.

And, yea, Westbrook got humped. He's been too much of a contributing factor (which is what's supposed to count) to have not gotten in.
Maybe the voices aren't real, but, they've got some pretty good ideas...
