Speaking of kickers, I'm not here to toot my own horn so I'll look at this objectively; Doug Funnie does not have the highest accuracy rating but he has put the ball up more than anyone else. (hint for kickers, if you have to put the ball up alot, stamina will have a big effect on your accuracy, I found that out the hard way) He is the highest scoring player in the entire league also. If Iwas going to choose a pro bowl kicker, I'd go with a guy that has been tested and still proven he can make it happen.

If GMs are gonna be able to vote, I obviously cannot and will not vote for my guys but that is the same formula I will use when looking at other players.

Doug is a fine kicker no doubt...but for all positions, it should not just be about being on the best team and thus getting the most opportunities. Some players are doing more with less and deserve recognition...IE...the FS for Oakland caught my eye...playing well without a ton of help!

I tried to give every team a vote myself. I know this isn't baseball but some guys are stuck on some less then talented teams. Now kicker and punter was kinda a shitty way to get 2 teams in but hey I tried.

Doug Funnie has had a lot of practice and I would be willing to give him some credit but only 1 tackle? You gotta get your nose a little dirtier then that.

OH, I think anyone in the league should be able to vote, you can't obviously vote for anyone on your team but after that who cares. If it brings more excitement to the league it is all well and good. I would love to have my whole team cast a vote it would just mean that none of my players would go to the Pro Bowl. If you want to make it more lopsided then Owners=3 votes, GMs (up to 3)= 2 votes, and players=1 vote. What is wrong with random people voting? If they care enough to spend some time it works for me.

I might agree with this idea, but will have to think about it more. Really, in the end, it doesn't matter who votes as long as it is done in an orderly fashion so that we get the votes to count.

top offencive lineman. you cant go just off of pancakes. the teams that pass more dont get as much pancakes because they are protecting the QB and not trying to plow the DT down. They stay back to not get beat. Look in the stats, the teams with lots of pancakes are leading in rushing. the teams that pass dont have alot of pancakes.


Then how would you measure the top PASS BLOCKING linemen? Good luck w/that, bro!



Even in NFL, pancake is the only stat for OL and nobody seems to care. we never hear about the pancake leader. there is only one way to see who the best lineman is, WE FIGHT!!!, ONE ON ONE, LAST MAN STANDING WINS

From what I have seen, if you are winning the sim runs more. If you are losing, the sim passes more. The number of pancakes is an excellent barometer for the success of the team.


GRRR, YOU DIDNT LOOK AT THE STATS.
the dirty man-whores are 2nd in the conference in passing with 2 losses

Anyone who doesn't think Chucky (Big Nose) Connor is a pro bowler is crazy. The dude has more than twice as many forced fumbles as the next best guy!
