Pro Bowl Voting

[I'm the Mike]

Listen up you angry lot. It's time for us as the premier Carolina Panthers community to take care of our own and make sure our great players are recognized for their stellar play on the football field. Usually I can't be bothered with voting for random crap on the internet but this is the second best thing to winning a Superbowl and is our solemn duty as Panthers fans.

Panthers.com Recommended Pro Bowlers

My recommendations (your opinion may differ/homer picks in blue):

QBs:

Carson Wentz - PHI

Cam Newton - CAR

Tom Brady - GOAT

Russell Wilson - SEA

Alex Smith - KC (that TD/INT Ratio though)

Drew Brees - NO

(Honorable Mentions: Dak Prescott-inaccurate as hell, Matt Stafford, Big Ben, Jared Goff)

RBs:

Le'veon Bell - PIT

Kareem Hunt - KC

Todd Gurley - LAR

Leonard Fournette - JAX

Christian McCaffrey - CAR (Ehhhhhh)

Alvin Kamara - NO (6.5 yards per tote; gotta respect that)

WRs:

Antonio Brown - PIT

Deandre Hopkins - OHU

Stefon Diggs - MIN

Adam Theilen - MIN (If you haven't heard of him you aren't watching football. UDFA that is a great route runner and receiver)

Larry the Legend - ARI

AJ Green - CIN (means more to his team than any other WR on this list; getting it done on a crap team)

Doug Baldwin - SEA (again, Seattle probably doesn't win games without Baldwin on the field)

Devin Funchess - CAR (hopefully he keeps balling the rest of the way and puts himself in the upper WR tiers)

(HM: Julio Jones, TY Hilton, Mike Thomas, Golden Tate)

FBs:

Kyle Juszczyk - SF

Aaron Ripkowski - GB

TEs:

Travis Kelce - KC

Zach Ertz - PHI

Gronk - NE

Delanie Walker - TEN (Great in the open field; less production in the red zone)

OTs: Best Rushing Teams

Andrew Whitworth - LAR

Alejandro Villanueva - PIT

Daryl Williams - CAR

Hal Vaitai - PHI

Lane Johnson - PHI

Matt Kalil - CAR (fug it. Why not)

OGs:

Zack Martin - DAL

Trai Turner - CAR

Andrew Norwell - CAR

Brandon Scherff - WAS (Washington Post Article)

Kelechi Osemele - OAK

Larry Warford - NO

OCs: (R. Kalil is listed but has not played enough to warrant a vote IMO)

Travis Frederick - DAL

Max Unger - NO

Jason Kelce - PHI

Maurkice Pouncey - PIT If you needed another reason

DEs:

Julius Peppers - CAR

Calais Campbell - JAX

Demarcus Lawrence - DAL

Joey Bosa - LAC

Everson Giffen - MIN

Mario Addison - CAR

DTs:

Kawann Short - CAR

Star Lotulelei - CAR

Fletcher Cox - PHI (We saw first hand what this guy can do)

Aaron Donald - LAC

Geno Atkins - CIN

Deforest Buckner - SF (It's not all about sacks. Puts up great effort on a crap team by stopping the run and making tons of tackles)

ILB/MLBs:

Luke Kuechly - CAR

Bobby Wagner - SEA

Ryan Shazier - PIT

Zach Brown - WAS (Could go different ways, kwon alexander or vince williams, with this last selection but almost to 100 tackles and 2.5 sacks midway through the season is really good stats)

OLBs:

Thomas Davis - CAR

Shaq Thompson - CAR (Homer? Maybe a little but his play has stacked up this season)

Nick Perry - GB

Chandler Jones - ARI

Von Miller - DEN

Ryan Kerrigan - WAS

CBs: Top CB stats

James Bradberry - CAR

Patrick Peterson - ARI

Casey Hayward - LAC

Marshon Lattimore - NO

AJ Bouye - JAX

Jalen Ramsey - JAX

Josh Norman - WAS

Demond Trufant - ATL

(Honorable Mention: Adoree Jackson because of his multple position use and Prince Amukamara)

SS:

Mike Adams - CAR

Micah Hyde - BUF

FS:

Kurt Coleman - CAR

Kevin Byard - TEN

(HM: Harrison Smith, Earl Thomas, DJ Swearinger)

Kickers:

Greg Zuerlein - LAC

Jake Elliott - PHI or Harrison Butker - KC (Trolling RR)

Return Specialists: I look at guys that do both Punt a Kick returns

Pharoh Cooper - LAC or Adoree' Jackson - TEN

Andre Roberts - ATL (South Carolina guy)

(you could vote CMC here but his performance in this position has been average at best)

PS:

Mike Palardy - CAR

Shane Lechler - HOU (punting average and inside 20 - really its a wash. Only care about our guy)

Special Teams:

Who knows...LA Rams have the best ST stats so I picked that guy.

Ben Jacobs - CAR

Cory Littleton - LAR

 

Alright! Now get on there and vote.

So you're pretty much voting for a Panther in every category? We're finally a team with pro bowlers at every position like all the other ones in the league

[I'm the Mike]

Haha. I said I was going to put all my homer picks in. We all know that's why Mike Tolbert got in there last year.

Interdasting.  I was told by experts that Butker missed practice kicks, so the kid would never make it.

Oh, and it would be fugging awesome if, somehow, Super Mario made the Pro Bowl.  What a thrill that would be for him.

just vote for a Panther player for every position

Who told you that?

Remember when the Pro Bowl almost actually meant something?

Worst game of the season to watch, followed closely by the Hall of Fame Game that kicks off pre-season.
