I think by virtue of this last weekend Brunell gets a mjaority of the nods from the voters over Bledsoe.

Overall I think Hassleback is a lock, Delhomme probably is 2nd and the third spot is between Brunell and Eli. Who knows which way that goes. I think both have had some good moments and some not so good moments. Either way in normal eyar neither gets a nod. Guys like McNabb and Culpepper will alwasy go ahead. If Brad Johnson had a few more games under his belt he'd be a lock.

I think you're right. I might add, if the voting were after this Sunday's game, that might affect the outcome as well.

Ok I know you guys will laugh at this question, but is the Pro Bowl selection 100% fan choice? Because if it is I do not think Brunell will get it. If its not and it is a combination of media and whatever else, I think he might. Nevertheless, I doubt he will be a starter, simply because Brunell has not been consistent throughout the year. There were some games where he looked really bad. But at the same time who else has not been inconsistent in the NFC. Pretty much all the QB's have had ups and downs. God I hope Vick doesn't get in, hes a great athlete but he is a terrible QB, and I do not think he will ever win a SuperBowl. I think I saw some sports writer who said that too, but I think its simply because he is NOT a good pocket passer, and all the good teams in the NFL mainly have pocket passer. Anyways that is a totally different debate, end of my rambling.

I believe it's 1/3 fans, 1/3 coaches and 1/3 players.

The voting for Pro-Bowl and the ALL-Pro selections are different. The latter, I believe, excludes fans.
