Why did Driver make it? So many more deserving players this year imo.

Yeah, I've heard a few different mediots say that he is the best at his position in the league. I certainly thought he was deserving.

I think Mario Williams deserved to go. He's having a real good season after struggling last season.

I would have taken Taylor over Parker.

Ellis is officially a LB. Umenyiora is a DE.

clinton portis - sad to say but he deserves it more then barber

How is it "sad to say"? He doesn't even average four yards a carry and has two (yes, two) runs longer than 20 yards. If he deserves it, you have to include Edgerrin James as well. Both are equally unimpressive and are only in the statistical realm they are because they have got the work.

Barber has a higher YPC, more touchdowns, more 20 yard carries and more receptions and all while averaging less than 13 carries a game.

And if we took the same approach Washington has done in his case with the rotation with Betts (do not start the inferior player)l it would be even more lopsided in Barber's favor.

as a cowboy fan i agree. as a football fan i say no. Portis has had the better yr. and he's done it with a horrible OL play

Please quit saying yr and abbreviating, and stuff like that. Its annoying to many people, and its not hard to type out year.

Now that that's out of the way, Portis hasn't had a better year. The one thing he has done better statistically is yardage, which should be so given the fact that he has 100 more carries than Barber. Barber is averaging a whole yard more per carry too.

Give me a reason other than the O-line why Portis has had a better year. The O-line isn't a good reason because you could counter that with the fact that Barber has 100 less carries.

Parker leads the NFL in rushing yards he has to go.... I'm not surprised Taylor didn't make it, he is having a good year could make an argument over maybe Addai but Addai has 14 TDs and over 1400 all Purpose yards, while Taylor has 4 TDs and almost 1200 yards all purpose.....

Surprise Super Mario didn't make it, I do think he is the biggest snubbed of them all....

Odds are, the answer your going to get isn't going to be to your liking.

13 sacks should get you in the pro bowl

shows you that the average fan is really based on the name, rather then the play. and why the probowl is a joke, and should be canned all together.:D
