EnglishBengal Posted December 20, 2006 Report Share Posted December 20, 2006 By Adam Schefter Special to NFL.com (Dec. 19, 2006) -- Time to give a little shout out to all the players who did not get one Tuesday. And now, without further ado, the 2007 Pro Bowled Over team -- players that got overlooked. [u]Offense[/u] QB: Tom Brady, Patriots -- It's not often that Philip Rivers and Carson Palmer beat Brady. RB: Brian Westbrook, Eagles -- Andy Reid thought Westbrook was a slam dunk. Reid thought wrong. FB: Ovie Mughelli, Ravens -- Tough name to pronounce and tougher for linebackers to avoid. WR: Terrell Owens, Cowboys -- T.O. leads the NFL with 11 receiving touchdowns, which is nothing to spit at. WR: Roy Williams, Lions -- On a team with little offense, Williams has more receiving yards than every NFC receiver other than Green Bay's Donald Driver. TE: Kellen Winslow, Browns -- His latest problem is that Antonio Gates and Tony Gonzalez play in the AFC. G: Ben Hamilton, Broncos -- Somebody in Denver's offensive line has to make the running game go. G: Ruben Brown, Bears -- Used to be a regular Pro Bowl selection, and still should be. C: Nick Mangold, Jets -- Even better as a rookie than the more heralded D'Brickashaw Ferguson. T: Marc Colombo, Cowboys -- A scrap-heap pickup for the Cowboys has turned into a gem. T: Marcus McNeill, Chargers -- A second-round pick made an impact as a rookie; just ask LaDainian Tomlinson. [u]Defense[/u] DE: Leonard Little, Rams -- More sacks than Julius Peppers, more sacks than Will Smith -- and Little doesn't make it. DE: Trevor Pryce, Ravens -- Hard for an established Pro Bowl player, on a winning team, with 12 sacks to get bypassed. But Pryce did. DT: Warren Sapp, Raiders -- Still a force in the middle with eight sacks, and like Pryce, has a reputation that didn't count. DT: Luis Castillo, Chargers -- A player that might produce as much, if not more, than the more heralded Shawne Merriman. LB: DeMeco Ryans, Texans -- This rookie leads the league in tackles, shouldn't that be enough? LB: Ray Lewis, Ravens -- How does Ray Lewis not make every Pro Bowl team? LB: Bart Scott, Ravens -- Scott rang up nine sacks, eight pass defenses, and the hardest hit ever delivered on Ben Roethlisberger. CB: Nnamdi Asomugha, Raiders -- Asomugha should have picked off a Pro Bowl bid to go along with his seven interceptions. CB: Walt Harris, 49ers -- Matched against the top receivers in the NFC West, Harris still distinguished himself with an NFC-best six interceptions. S: Kerry Rhodes, Jets -- Rhodes did everything for the Jets -- pick off passes, force fumbles, recover them. Just didn't go to Hawaii. [b]S: Kevin Kaesviharn, Bengals -- No safety had as many as six interceptions, and Kaesviharn layed the wood, too.

Jason Posted December 20, 2006 Report Share Posted December 20, 2006 John Clayton did one too. No Bengals love though. He didn't think Carson should have made it over Brady. [quote name='John Clayton']3. Tom Brady, QB, Patriots: To be fair, the three AFC QBs who were named to the Pro Bowl -- Peyton Manning, Rivers and Palmer -- are having good seasons. Manning is the game's best quarterback and he showed that in beating the Bengals on Monday night. Rivers has led the Chargers to a 12-2 record. [b]But Palmer over Brady? Let's see. The Patriots have a better record and they beat the Bengals 38-13 earlier in the season. Palmer's stats might be better, [u]but Brady is a three-time Super Bowl champ[/u] who is on the verge on winning a division title.[/b][/quote] What the f#*k do his previous seasons have to do with [b]THIS SEASON'S[/b] Pro Bowl???

One of his main arguments was that Brady led his team to a better overall record. So fucking what? It's not Carson's fault his team has a shitty defense. Carson has overall better stats in almost every fucking category, but because his defense sucks, Brady should go ahead of him? Nice try Rogaine. Also, I like how he uses the argument that Brady should go because he led his team to a good record. But in the same article, he calls Sapp and snub from the Pro Bowl, despite leading the Raiders to an amazing record of 2-12. Contradiction at it's finest.
