buffaloboyinATL Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 He did not really have a great season, but due to injuries and playoff QB's he was just named as a replacement for Aaron Rodgers. This made me wonder, not that he was good enough, but what if Orton had been named as a replacement player. Would he still have been eligible, willing to play after he filed his retirement papers?

buffaloboyinATL Posted January 20, 2015 Author Share Posted January 20, 2015 LMAO!! Well, they must not have watched his playoff game...geeshHe had something like 19TD and 17 INT this year. Not exactly Pro Bowl worthy in my book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubba Gump Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 The Pro-Bowl is a joke and a waste of time. Every year more and more players back out of playing in it. They need to just name the players who would've made the team and skip the game. Anyone remember JR Redmond and that stupid Beach Bowl game he played in and ended up with basically a career ending injury? I don't think I've ever watched more than 10 minutes of a Pro-Bowl.

I believe it was Robert Edwards Pro Bowl is a complete waste of time and has been for a long time which they just made worse by playing it week before the super bowl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubba Gump Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 (edited) I believe it was Robert Edwards Pro Bowl is a complete waste of time and has been for a long time which they just made worse by playing it week before the super bowl I think you're right. Redmond may have been injured in a regular season game now that I think about. And I was gonna also say that moving the game to the off week before the Superbowl made it that much more of a waste. Seeing how quite a few players from the two SB teams usually make the PB team. I don't even know how the PB makes the NFL any money. Oops, just realized there was already another thread on the Pro-Bowl being a joke. Mods, please merge my posts if you care to.

They are in different conferences, but your point remains the same. Probowl is ridiculous as is. Should just be a list and not a game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Gianelli Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 I haven't ever played Madden, but could they set it up to just have the two teams play each other on Madden? That might attract more people, especially young gamers, than the actual Pro Bowl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
