Vote our boys into the probowl
 
Lets keep on voting folks, because of the injuries in the NFC alot of our defensive players who usually dont' get mentioned are in the hunt so do you part Warpath!!

by the way Taylor is posting similar numbers to Dawkins right now

Maybe Taylor, Definitely Washington and Griffin, but who else? I think Portis could make a late season push, but I'm not sure. I guess I could see voting for Smoot also.

SmootSmack 12-08-2004 01:35 PM

How about Shawn Springs?

I Think Portis Gets In Only If Someone Gets Injured. He Needs To Score More

Ummm...Cooley has the best numbers of the fullbacks for the NFC. I know he isn't a true fullback but based on the list they have he has to be the starter. He has over twice as many TDs as anyone else and is second in catches. Seems weird but I have to vote for him.

Vote these jamokes into the Pro Bowl and most of them will get significant cash bonuses from their contracts. Given the sterling team record, is that the lesson you want ot teach these guys - it doesn't matter if you lose twice as often as you win, we'll help you cash another big paycheck?


Best thing that can happen to these folks is not to make the Pro Bowl and have them listen to the talking heads on ESPN say that the reason they did not make it was because the team record was not what it should have been!

I think anyone that plays primarily H-back gets put in the "fullback" category, since he technically lines up in the backfield most of the time.

He does have very good stats compared to most of those fullbacks, and I think he deserves a vote. Cooley's one of the few players on this offensive team about whom we haven't had many bad things to say, and he's certainly been one of the only consistently good players, providing several of the rare highlights on that side of the ball.

As far as Pro Bowl players coming from losing teams, I don't think you can point a finger at Cooley for any blame in the Skins' losses. But he definitely played a big part in the wins this season, so I think you can make a valid case for him being in the Pro Bowl, despite his team's record.

This is exactly what you get when you let fans vote people in. Everyone who is a big-name all star is going to get voted in. I mean lets be honest, would Arrington have made the pro-bowl last season if not for his reputation? Now that we deserve it with some lesser name guys, were gonna get scrwed. Look at MLB, they let the fans vote the people in and Nomar Garciapara had the leading amount of votes in the middle of june, and had yet to play a game all season. I think the pro-bowlers should be picked by the coaches.

Isn't NFL pro bowl voting by coaches, players and fans?

Daseal 12-09-2004 07:37 AM

I thought it was, but any idea how it's weighted?

SKINSnCANES 12-09-2004 02:32 PM

how awesome would it be if our rookies, cooley and taylor, ended up making the probowl and winslow is at home, lol.

joecrisp 12-09-2004 02:41 PM

I'm pretty sure the votes of the fans, coaches and players are weighted equally; in other words, fan votes, despite the enormous volume (over 55 million votes cast last season) still constitute only one-third of the overall vote, with the coaches' and players' votes also counting one-third each.
