If Gross makes the Probowl, I'd be disgusted. He's been getting worse and worse.

Unlike last year, Gross has been playing very well this year. It's hard to notice when the rest of the line sucks so badly but he's not even close to a weak link. That being said I don't think he's "pro bowl material" but far from undeserving.

CJ is probably the only guy who deserves it. doubt he gets in though. greg hardy has a better shot since he has more sacks which is what impresses the masses.

casual fans will see mike tolbert's TDs and vote for him. dwan edwards' sack count and vote for him. neither should be in it.

keek has a ton of tackles but also has made his share of rookie mistakes... plus navarro bowman and daryl washington have played out of their minds. cam is a fan favorite. gross and smitty have name recognition.

could see any of them getting in.

What???!?!?!

You must not have watched any of the games this season when he looked like a high schooler out there. You should go take a look at some stats on gross, they'll make you puke.

Whatever, a lot of probowlers are only in there because of their market and division they play in.

I like to look at the potential Panther probowlers in the perspective of "are they the best at their position within our division?"

-Luke is the best middle backer in the nfcs.

- CJ and Hardy were the best d-ends in the division this year, not saying they are the clear cut best, but this year Yes.

-Ryan Kalil is the best center (obviously not probowl material this year)

-Olsen would be the best tight end anywhere else, but the South has some stiff competition with Graham and Gonzalez.

-TD and Lavonte David are probably the best OLBers.

-And last but not least, if you polled every coach outside of the South on who they would want on their team the most of the wr's: 89, Julio Jones, Roddy White, Vincent Jackson, then I think the answer would be almost unanimous... Since Fitzgerald got Delhommed this year, I wouldn't be shocked if Smitty was voted in again.

Neither Hardy nor CJ getting in is the biggest middle-finger to the Panthers from the NFL in a longtime.

both of them have just over 10 sacks. as much as they may be one of the best DE tandems in the league, those aren't pro bowl numbers.

luke will be there for sure.

I don't think anyone gets in the Pro Bowl on the initial vote....maybe an alternate gets in after someone bows out.

Possible alternates.

CJ, Hardy, Luke, Smith, Gross, Tolbert

Fair or unfair, I don't think anyone gets voted straight in
