Re: Redskins in the Pro Bowl

I've voted about 100 times. I would ask that each one of us take about 5 or 10 minutes a day to vote for our guys. I'm trying to make a real effort to see that 2 of our players who always seem to get overlooked make it this year. London Fletcher and Mike Sellers. I vote for some of our other players also but sometimes I just repeatedly vote for those 2 to save time and I think the recognition they deserve is long overdue. America's southwest team is overrated as usual. It's time for Our Nations Team to represent. Let's bring it! Thanks guys. This public service announcement was brought to you by Dallas Sucks Ass Inc.

Re: Redskins in the Pro Bowl

We take Samuels for granted but he's a DAMN good tackle. Look at the holes he opens up week after week. We'll miss him when he's gone. He's in.

Re: Redskins in the Pro Bowl

Samuels: In

CP: Lock

Sellers: In

LF: Lock

LL: In

Carlos Rogers: Should be in

JC: He needs some big games to get his #'s up. If he does then yes, if not than no.

Cooley: Most likely in

Moss: Needs some more big games...more consistency

Someone mentioned Suisham: Uhhhmmm.. NO, not good enough

Re: Redskins in the Pro Bowl

I personaly think its too early to vote and I'm not just going to vote for someone because they are a Redskin. I know people do just vote down the team line but thats not what the probowl is suppose to be about.

Very true. I think its fun to see who's having a Pro Bowl type year and i think so far we have a # of them. But yes it's too early to be making reservations just yet.

While I respect your opinion, what it's SUPPOSE to be about and what it IS about are 2 different things. Look at last years PB roster. Something like 13 Cowgirls went to the ProBowl last year. It's suppose to be about the best players of the year making it, not a popularity contest. London Fletcher has never gone to the ProBowl. Somehow I find that offensive. I'm not voting for every Redskin on the roster but I am voting for ones deserving of it IMO. I also think it's to early to vote as I've already stated but I did'nt make the rules. I doubt cowgirl fans are waiting to see how their team does before they vote. For those who are happy with past results....hey..don't vote.

I think Carlos Rogers, London Fletcher, Clinton Portis Chris Cooley and Jason Campbell deserve to be in the pro bowl this year.

Re: Redskins in the Pro Bowl

This is a wild toss, but I'm going to but Horton's (AKA the Gem) name in the Pro Bowl. As of right now, he is one of the top 4 strong safeties in the NFC.

Re: Redskins in the Pro Bowl

GTripp, who do you think is the better option at SS other than Horton? The only guys that I think would give him a run for his money are Adrian Wilson, Jermaine Phillips, Quntin Mikell, Kevin Payne, and maybe Darren Sharper although he's slowed down some.

The only saftey I can think of that is good is Adrian Wilson. If he gets 5+ picks this season he's a lock.

Pro Bowl doesn't break down by safety type.

My four safeties if the pro bowl was tomorrow: Adrian Wilson (ARI), LaRon Landry (WAS), Nick Collins (GB), and Jermaine Phillips (TB).

Horton has been great for us, but his career has only spanned seven games, and you do need a certain amount of hype coming into the season to get pro bowl consideration. Horton will have a shot next year, if he can keep up this pace.

Payne's been great, but he's got the same problem as Horton.

I agree with your Landry, Collins, and Phillips picks but I am not to sure about Wilson. Are you putting him in based on his performances for years past? I know Wilson has been snubbed quite a bit, finally making it last year, but this year he's been injured and from what i've seen he's not the factor he once was i'm guessing it's because he's not 100% healthy. I understand what you're saying about the hype coming into the season, but to me the Pro Bowl is about voting for who's performing the best that particular season regardless of if they're a hyped vet or a rookie. I think Payne or Horton definitely deserve it over Wilson this year.
