Probowl selection Peppers/ Williams in Beason out

Well, we know that the Pro Bowl can be a stupid popularity contest some years. Regardless, I love seeing Panthers representing the team in the Pro Bowl.

So, who makes it?

All I know, if Beason doesn't make it, I will completely flip poo. I think he has the best chance to make it from our team and has absolutely lived up to his "Beast" nickname on every single snap through these first 16 games so far.

Peppers is 7th in the NFC regarding sacks. D-Will and J-Stew are both in the top 10 in rushing in the NFC, but I figure both are long shots now, considering Stewart's late surge and Williams' late drop out.

Even though our O-line has been banged up, we have great guys that won't get any attention. However, I think Kalil is a top 5 center in the NFL and deserves a Pro Bowl spot.

Any other input from you guys?

if we're lucky......none.

pro bowl is a joke. just a popularity contest where you play in a meaningless game but still risk injury.

players come back and tell the teams, "hey! i'm popular now and pretty special cause i got this here "honor" so i'm going to need more money cause somehow that makes me more valuable. pay me or trade me."

    • Yeah but jumping up in the draft to get a project #2/3 WR is just plain not smart. I am down on XL because the thought was that he could be a potential #1 WR and he has been anything but that so far. Also, the idea of him as a slot is even more upsetting because you pass on several more productive slot guys(McConkey being the most obvious) that were TREMENDOUSLY more NFL ready. I was not a fan of the XL move at the time and I am not a fan of the decision in short term hindsight either. He is just simply going to have to be a guy that proves it on the field to me. McMillian was my #1 WR in this draft and I was a pro-McMillian guy. However, he isn't gonna get treated with baby gloves either. We are in the era of rookie WR's putting up 1k+ yd seasons with regularity. He's going to(barring injury) have to be one of the top 2 or 3 WR's in this class in terms of production. And that's being very generous to him. He really needs to be THE guy from this class. It isn't like he is gonna have a lot of guys taking catches away from him.
    • Thought this was an interesting moment of candor. See the 2:00 min mark. TD said he made the decision that he wanted T-Mac as our 1st round pick back in January. Dan chimed in and said he made the decision early as well (indicating the same time frame).
