NFL 2025-2026 Season

How ridiculos ....
After playing 7 games Wonder boy Sheddur Sanders is making the Pro Bowl (no wonder no one watches or plays in it)
Sheddur is replacing Maye because Maye is playing in another game, called the Super Bowl.

You mean Sheddur played so well that he's ahead of all the other QBs in the AFC ?
Please .... this is how players get gift Pro Bowl selections on thier resume.

Just so you know, Sheddur played only 7 game .... threw 7 TD's and 10 interceptions and a 56% completion percentage.

Wonder how that happened .... Things that make you go hmmm ....

I know its a replacement vote, but still, theres not an established QB thats better thats not in the SB ?????
Allen, Burrow, Mahomes ect ectect ...

Presumably they said no. The Pro Bowl is meaningless anyway. They should just name a first and second team and call it a day.

Sanders in the Pro Bowl seems crazy, but if you look at the stats... yeah... it makes no sense. He should be pretty far down the list. Granted, when you do look at the stats, the better stats are in the NFC. But still, the Cleveland Browns QB for half a season or so and not great stats? He does have a fanbase, which I don't quite understand either.

The Pro Bowl is about money. And with other QBs either disinterested or injured, apparently maybe even I could make a Pro Bowl appearance.

Pro Bowl rosters are determined by a combination of one-third fan voting, one-third player voting and one-third coach voting. Selected players can decline to participate if they choose. Other likely contenders from the AFC include two playoff quarterbacks, Trevor Lawrence (Jacksonville Jaguars) and Aaron Rodgers (Pittsburgh Steelers), along with Lamar Jackson (Baltimore Ravens) and Joe Burrow (Cincinnati Bengals).

Sanders has a base and he got the vote out (is that too political?). Seriously though, as long as he doesn't make a big deal of it and works on improving next year, this is an oddity, and nothing more. His base is rabid and irrational, but as far as I can tell Sanders hasn't been a head case. He has been a lot more settled than Manziel was. He might not be the QB of the future for Cleveland (he'd join a very large family of former QBs at that), but the Browns were doomed for a few years post the end of the Watson draft pick consequence.

They may as well make it a fastest this and that / football skills now.

Do they actually Play the game anymore ?

It hasn't been a real (tackle football, and barely that) game for 4 years. Since then it's been... wait for it... skills competitions and a flag football game.

It doesn't matter how rabid his 'base' was - they are at most 1/3 of the voting. Who cares about his swagger (well, apparently some are sensitive and they are, lol), if he doesn't have the output he'll be out of the league in a couple years.

My reference that you quoted was referring to 'season accomplishments' as an additional litmus test when it has nothing to do with the selection process. Then again, you could make a case that stats in general have no bearing either, it's a literal popularity contest among the 3 tranches.

I'm also not sure we even know how far down the voting he was, it's possible he wasn't #4 on the list, he could have been behind numerous injured quarterbacks like Mahomes, Nix and Jones.

I'm not disagreeing with you, more along the lines of just following up what you said. Though I can see apparently how that could have been interpreted based on my quotes.

As far as swagger, I'm not into swagger, but prefer performance. Sanders has a rabid base, but there are is a good deal of anti-Sanders sentiment as well. We'll see how Sanders does next year, if at all. The Browns are snake bitten by bad ownership decisions and mediocre coaching.
