Your Pro Bowl snubs?

Yup, that confirms it, you have not watched any Charger games this season.

Or I am aware that he averages less than 5 catches a game, has but a mere 9 TD's (two more than Steve Smith who had a bad QB throwing to him for over half the season), and in the middle of the season played mediocre or worse for 5 consecutive games. All of this with a really good QB. Feast or Famine players do not deserve to be in the pro bowl.

You mean 1 less TD than Wayne, and the same amount as Johnson.

Averaging 4 more ypc than Wayne, and 2 more ypc than Johnson.

One more 100 yard game than Wayne, and the same amount of 100 yard games as Johnson.

Yea....he's feast or famine all right. Come on man.

Not even sure why I am arguing with a Gator fan anyway.

Starks was a far more consistently disruptive player than Mario Williams this season, but the nod went to the "name" player.

and Lousaka Polite

Fullback: Lousaka Polite, Dolphins – Polite was a short-yardage conversion machine while also paving the way for a dominant rushing attack.

It's mostly large fanbase/big market oriented propoganda BS anyways. the pro bowl is a fuging joke. Lot's of guys more deserving are snubbed year in and year out. who fuging cares? I remember Urlacher having better numbers than Lofa Tatupu in 07 but getting snubbed highly in part because of the Bears having such a shitty year. I personally wouldn't want my players risking an injury before the Superbowl this season. It's more unlikely it will happen, but it could.

Like 400 yards less than Johnson on the season. Like 30 less catches. 2 games of less than 30 yards receiving. Johnson definitely gets the nod.

Wayne has more yds, more TD's, more receptions. And one game of less than 30 yds, which he caught a TD in.

Maybe you feel he deserves the pro bowl. But BIGGEST snub? Absolutely not. I would say Beason is a much bigger snub than Jackson. Sounds like you listen to Schefter.

And that's very original and clever of you to criticize gator fandom. You are wise.

    • Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
    • Well, we got our answer on Army today.
    • Not a chance the SEC could compete with the NFL.  In the large cities that are not in the Southeast, (LA, NYC, Chicago, SF) College football is an afterthought.
