Good for them! They'll be paying through the nose to retain these players in coming months. 😃

If I were GM.. TRADEBAIT.

At least, that's how I can churn out Super Bowl victory after Super Bowl victory in Madden.. I don't even play the games, either.

No, it's not.

In the AFC, people are pretty honest in filling out the roster spots.

In the NFC, the Vikings are this years' Redskins.

I think it's a disgrace.

Shut down fan voting, if you ask me.

Pro Bowl voting

The Packers dont have anyone among the leading vote-getters in the fan vote for the Pro Bowl. The fans, coaches and players each count for one-third of the total vote.

Charles Woodson ranks second among cornerbacks, just a few thousand votes behind Philadelphias Asante Samuel. A.J. Hawk ranks third among inside linebackers. Aaron Rodgers is a distant third among quarterbacks behind Drew Brees and Brett Favre. Brees has 1,120,535 votes less than 400 votes more than Favre.

Atari Bigby ranks fourth among strong safeties, Nick Collins ranks fourth among free safeties, John Kuhn ranks fourth among fullbacks and Desmond Bishop ranks fourth among special-teamers. Clay Matthews ranks fifth at outside linebacker and Mason Crosby is fifth at kicker.

Voting continues until Dec. 21 at NFL.com. The Pro Bowl teams will be announced on Dec. 29.

I'd rather have the entire starting NFC lineup consist of Vikings, while our guys are relaxing and drinking maitais. Let the Vikings absorb the exorbitant costs of paying for Pro Bowlers.

And I'd just like to enjoy a Pro Bowl where I can see the best players in the league play a nice game of football. Just without thinking about the finances for five seconds.

I want to see Aaron Rodgers, Charles Woodson, Nick Collins etc. get what they deserve.

Do you really think that these players wouldn't want any money if they didn't go to a Pro Bowl? I'm pretty sure that we've paid Rodgers big time, already, and that Nick Collins will want a big deal regardless of another Pro Bowl selection.

On the other side, maybe this can get us players. If you see that a team has quite some individual talent, you're more likely to join them. If we get a great speaker like Rodgers over there, he can do some of that recruiting that everyone was so high about last year.

Looking at the numbers and the impact players have had I think Aaron Rodgers, Charles Woodson, and Nick Collins are solid for the Pro Bowl. Assuming they carry, two free safties? Darren Sharper will start for the NFC for sure.

Ryan Pickett is a Pro Bowl worthy player this year, but the tackle position is four-deep in the NFC. I would put Darnell Docket, Kevin Williams, and Jay Ratliff as the three NFC guys. Pat Williams would be the top alternate. Pickett the 2nd if they have one.

Donald Driver has a outside chance at making it because he's the most popular Packer player and the fans will come out and vote for him. He's also been solid this year, but DeSean Jackson, Larry Fitzgerald, Miles Austin, Margues Colston, Steve Smith, and Sidney Rice are probably ahead of him.

I'm not sold on Austin though, but Dallas fans always get their guy in.

The last guy that I think has as solid as a chance at making it is Clay Matthews. There are no Pro Bowl worthy outside linebackers in the NFC this year. Ware's numbers have fallen and Lance Briggs hasn't been that great this year. Honestly, I fill out the Pro Bowl ballot not as a fan, but as who deserves to go, and Clay Matthews was on my ballot.

If I had to guess right now, Green Bay would send four to the Pro Bowl this year with Driver as an alternate.

Mucky Tundra (15h) : Stinks for Lloyd. Hoping he comes back strong for next year

Zero2Cool (3-Jan) : Packers placed Marshawn Lloyd on reserve non-football illness list

Zero2Cool (3-Jan) : Luke Getsy been helping Packers defense. He's former OC Bears/Raiders and our old QB coach

beast (2-Jan) : Thanks dfosterf, I'm still kicking myself for last week, as I forgot to change to pick Vikings and Lions... after putting in a holding spot.

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : First alternate: Elgton Jenkins Other alternates: Jordan Love, Kenny Clark, Keisean Nixon, Tucker Kraft, Josh Myers, Jaire Alexander

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : Pro Bowl still a thing? Guess Packers have three. Jacobs, Gary, McKinney.

dfosterf (2-Jan) : It's a mine field with all the players sitting, etc

dfosterf (2-Jan) : There was quite a bit of "chalk" matchups this year it seemed, but not this week coming up

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : Or we got better and by we I mean everyone except me

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : We have about six that by percent would have won nearly any season. I guess 2024 was predictable 🤷

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : You can check previous seasons. I quick did it and don't think anyone hit 70% before

dfosterf (2-Jan) : Hats off to the Beast

dfosterf (2-Jan) : I'm at 71.76% in pick 'em. 2nd place. Beast is at a flat 75% 9 games ahead. That 75% has got to be unprecedented this late in the season

beast (2-Jan) : I don't care deeply, just want some good entertaining games

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : BTW, not serious.

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : You don't care about it either!!!!

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : NIL and Portal killed college, no one cares about it.

Mucky Tundra (2-Jan) : outside of Texas-Arizona St, it's been a snoozefest

beast (2-Jan) : I expect Georgia will change that tomorrow, but we'll have to wait and see. If they do, then only Big 10 and SEC are left.

beast (2-Jan) : So much for Conference Championship meaning something as 100% (so far) of the conference Champions lost their first playoff game.

Zero2Cool (1-Jan) : Jaire had surgery, season over.

Mucky Tundra (1-Jan) : I guess I need a new sig Pic. Boo

Mucky Tundra (1-Jan) : Eric Dickerson approves of this decision

beast (1-Jan) : Eagles are resting RB Saquon Barkley, so there is no chance he breaks the record despite being just 101 yards from it

Zero2Cool (1-Jan) : Patriots are waiving veteran pass rusher Yannick Ngakoue

beast (1-Jan) : Happy New Year's 🥳🎉

beast (31-Dec) : I want to them chant some songs for Daniel Whelan

beast (31-Dec) : Let's win one! Also, hopefully the Irish will stand with Daniel Whelan

Mucky Tundra (31-Dec) : After London and Brazil, I could go without an overseas game for a while

Zero2Cool (31-Dec) : Packers. Steelers. Ireland. 2025. Reports say.

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Matt Lafleur on if Jaire will play again this season. "Yeah I don't know... he's been dealing with swelling."

Mucky Tundra (30-Dec) : After the way they played for most of the game yesterday, I don't see how you can sit anyone for the whole game

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : I'd say play everyone. Going into playoffs at 7th seed on two game lose streak - yucky

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Do the Packers have any best players?

beast (30-Dec) : Play or Rest*

beast (30-Dec) : Should the Packers play or free their best players vs the Bears?

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Packers should be 3 - 2 in the Division. Bonkers being swept by both Lions and Vikings. yikes

go.pack.go. (30-Dec) : All crazy stuff…and good point beast

beast (30-Dec) : Packers should be 0-5 in the division, can't say I saw that coming, even 1-4

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Sam Darnold 35 TD's ... another one

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Baker Mayfield, 39 TD's ... can't say I saw that one

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : No matter who is playing as 7th, I think we want them to win. Get rid of 2nd seed haha

go.pack.go. (30-Dec) : That would be dhazer who was rooting for Minnesota

beast (30-Dec) : Well, Commanders are currently the 6th seed and Packers the 7th

beast (30-Dec) : Who was it in Chat, that wanted the Vikings to win (because Lions fans upset them) because Packers could not lose the 6th seed?

beast (30-Dec) : If Falcons win, Packers stay as the 6th seed and Falcons lead the NFCS, if they lose, Commanders 6th and Bucs take NFCS lead

beast (30-Dec) : Win or Loss, the NFCS is going down to week 18

Mucky Tundra (30-Dec) : if the Falcons win, how does that affect the overall NFC playoff picture? Does it mean that the NFC South comes down to week 18?
