Beck Water Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 1 hour ago, Back2Buff said: 7 of his teammates are going, yet he just leaves them hanging to go golf? Where is the support for the lineman and WR that were there for you all season? Maybe he needs a little time away from the "fiery competitor" who was screaming at him while he was trying to figure out the defense on a Surface and the OL who left him with 0 time to throw and a good covering of bruises. If I were Diggs or Allen, though, I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for Eli Apple to cover that couples counseling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donuts and Doritos Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 This might be the most entertaining Pro Bowl ever, in a car crash kind of way, it's awful but you can't pull your eyes away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerome007 Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 As a fan I would have watched it with Josh there. Plus he meets other top players, and of course he's there with some teammates, to lower the sting of the sour ending. 3 hours ago, Big Turk said: Trevor Lawrence should be the replacement. What a joke. That's what I read at first. A backup QB with just a few games? WTH is that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Source: I am a golfer and I occasionally throw a football. A UCL tear is not the same as golfer's elbow. You can swing and hit a ball just fine without further damage to the UCL, which is why you saw Shohei Ohtani hitting, but not pitching in 2019 following his UCL injury. Josh will be fine.

Warcodered Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 So does this mean Josh is still a 1 time Pro Bowler? The one time being the year there wasn't a Pro Bowl so there wasn't a reason for him to opt out. 😭 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once guys start opting out any scrub can get in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Utah John Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 I think the NFL must be contacting potential replacement players to see if they'll agree to show up, before announcing their names. Saffold and Huntley must have been the only guys who answered the phone. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dhgold Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 Someone might have already pointed this out, but of the 32 Bills players ranked by Joe Buscaglia for The Athletic, Saffold has the lowest grade for the season, D+. Saffold's weekly grade was also regularly at or near the bottom. It bears repeating: The Pro Bowl, what a joke. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess not. No way in hell. The pro bowl is a joke. The flag version is even worse. No one gives a crap attending this embarrassing league event. Just announce your end of season pro bowl awards. Let these guys shut it down. Josh, keep your drive right on the 18th. Edited January 31, 2023 by LABILLBACKER Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalosouth Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 Good for Huntley. He will have Pro Bowl QB before his name which is a accomplishment and a nice recognition. Nobody cares about the pro bowl right? Shouldnt it just be like 'Rock and Jock'? Get celebrities, musicians and league stars have them all play to promote the game for kids or just for ad revenue. Dpoy, Opoy, MVP are the highest person awards you can win right? Pro Bowls go next man up when the best are getting rest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Hindsight Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 So the AFC pro bowl QBs are Lawrence (ok), Carr (Benched by his own team and went home the rest of the year) and Snoop Huntly (started 4 games) Like i get that it doesn't mean much, but that is digging down into the QB room. Case Keenum was about 4 calls away Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TampaBillsJunkie Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 7 hours ago, Mr. WEO said: Why? It's a commonplace contract escalator. Last year Jason Kelce got an extra $500K, Xavien Howard on the Fins got an extra $1 million, for example. You want to overpay Saffold and Huntley and a host of other players who do not deserve Pro Bowl cred. They are there because 4,5,6 guys ahead of them bowed out because it's a joke of a game. And I'm not talking about escalators, I'm talking about guaranteed money and extensions where an agent would try to use it to drive up the price.

The only kind of cast you get from these types of post season activities is the ones you put on your arms and legs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
