Pro Bowl 2008

Portis has more yards, one less TD. Barber only beats him in YPC. I still think that's crap. Not to say Clinton should have made it either, but damn Barber?!

Just like Barber, Hamlin has had a "good" reason, but not a Pro Bowl worthy one.

If he'd gotten in over Westbrook I'd say it was a travesty. I don't really think Portis has had a season worthy of a Pro Bowl nod. That he didn't get in after the 2005 season is the real snub. If we weren't basing the thing on name recognition and the amount of Cowboy fans there are I'd say Ernest Graham actually might have deserved an invite over Barber. Still, there weren't a lot of dominant backs in the NFC this year. Apart from Westbrook and Peterson (both of whom have also missed time to injury) there really wasn't a clear cut #3.
