Celek should have made it over Witten. Years are comparable, but the TD receptions are what put Celek over the top. No argument there at all.
Witten is the best TE in the game...he didn't have the TDs this year, but he is close to a 1000 again and has the most receptions of any TE
"Austin made the play, Austin saved the day" Brad Sham
Hell no slandog.
The stupid statement he made about Celek and Witten. Celek is an average TE at best. Witten is a HOFer. Stats don’t tell you crap about aTE and the value he is to your team. It just shows he doesn’t know sh!t about football, but that’s not a news flash.
How bout dem Frogs!!!!
I thought so....not sure what the deal is with this and I see it alot...
Seems like when you reply to a post it gets pushed down from the post you are replying to at times….Makes it diffcult understanding who the poster is replying to like in this case..Maybe Grizz or Aaron can shed some light on it….

Romo deserved it over Favre
but if we don’t make it to the SB, he’ll be 1st alternate. Either way, he’ll be playing in Miami.
In Romo we Trust
Mcnabb is I think
and bawk and the rest will try and justify why he is First alternate. lol could be funny….but McNabb shouldn’t be ahead of Romo if you go by what he says stats of this year only.
"When people talk about Super Bowl dynasties they mention the 1970's Steelers, 1980's 49ers, 1990's Cowboys and the current New England Patriots, but nobody has dominated the Super Bowl like Anheuser-Busch. In recent years, Budweiser has been the MVP of Super Bowl advertising -- making another company the favorite to win the Ad Meter poll was never an option."

Brees and Favre were shoe ins
and the media is in love with Rodgers, so I figured Romo would miss out.
Oh well.
Do not worry. (Matthew 6:27)
wow just 2.
I knew there wouldn’t be many but….Witten just didn’t have enough TDs to make it as a starter I guess…

Here's hoping he beats both of them at something more important this season!
"Everybody wants something but nobody wants to pay the price" - Michael Irvin
How So?
His team has a better record, he has more TDs and less INTs. Did you watch every game Favre played? And this is from someone who actually likes Romo.

They don't have a better record yet.

Romo has been more consistent
Favre hasn’t played well since the Vikings began their December swoon.
In Romo we Trust
I figured Romo was out because of Brees, Favruh and Rodgers
too bad. This might be his best season yet. Congrats to the rest though.
FREE THE OGLETREE!!!
Romo will be the second alternate....Favre wont play in the Pro Bowl and that team isnt making the Superbowl
Minn is a one and done team….they look awful right now

Bengals having zero PBer's is ridiculous....
Say what you want about them, but they’re winning their division, and playing good football.
I’m sure the coaches will make one (at least) or two guys from their squad an alternate.
Yeah...
although they haven’t been lighting it up the last few weeks.
I thought that one of their O-lineman would probably make it though.
by The Immortal Iron Fist AKA AFB on Dec 29, 2009 8:00 PM CST up reply actions
i don't know their defensive players
offensively they haven’t performed well
If Antwan Odom hadn't gotten hurt for the season
He probably would’ve made it, he had what, 8 sacks in 5 games? Granted, 5 of them in a single game, but still. He would’ve contested for the league lead.
Definitely, I voted for Leon Hall the couple of times I did it.
He and Jonathan Joseph shut passing games down.
Cowboys are one of only four teams with 6
I was surprised any O-linemen made it.
Do not worry. (Matthew 6:27)
How does Romo not make it?
Oh well, I don’t want any of these guys to play. I would rather them be preparing for a much more important game.

I can understand Romo not making it...
even though he deserved it. He got caught in a numbers crunch when there are a lot of QBs having great seasons. I’d imagine he’d be the #4 QB if one of the first 3 drops out for any reason.
Otherwise, not sure about Gurode or Bigg making it. Neither has been all that impressive to me.
On the defensive side of the ball, I think Jenkins and Brooking were deserving.

I hope this list is irrelevant
the SB teams will not be there anyway because of the timing.
FREE THE OGLETREE!!!
Biggest snub is Jenkins
Not a lot of people know his name yet though .. but I think people will know it by post-season’s end.
Romo has been excellent, but with the other guys in the NFC, and their numbers, it was gonna be hard. Good thing though, when Troy was winning Super Bowls, he often got overlooked for the guys putting up big yards and touchdown numbers like Favre and Young, but Aikman was the most effecient. Lets hope the same reaps true for Tony.

Still, I would just as soon not have any pro-bowlers. I don’t care about that game. The one after it is the one I’m interested in.

You kind of have to start being talked about before getting invited.
It’s like we all knew that Ratliff was a badass, but John Madden says it on national television and all of a sudden it’s like Wow go Ratliff.

by The Immortal Iron Fist AKA AFB on Dec 29, 2009 8:01 PM CST up reply actions
Give him another year....
and if he continues his high level of play…he should be a shoe-in next year.
Brooking has been nothing short of fantastic for us
But I wouldn’t put him in over Patrick Willis and Jon Beason/London Fletcher. Fletcher definitely deserves a nod, it sucks that he’ll probably retire without the recognition.
I think that Austin
got robbed of his starting position by Jackson. His number are better in almost every category (except plays of 40+ and YPC, only a 2 yard difference) and Jackson got the start, not right. More yards, catches, TDs, YPG, first downs, less fumbles. Jackson deserves the kick returner, but not starting WR
Love the both of them but Jackson has something like 10 plays of over 50 or more...
add to that his numbers from the line of scrimmiage are more and his returns on special teams gave him the nod over Austin
"Austin made the play, Austin saved the day" Brad Sham
They are totally different kind of players
DeSean will not go over the middle like Austin, Austin can’t go deep like DeSean.
by DatNguyenNguyenScenario on Dec 29, 2009 9:26 PM CST up reply actions
wrong
Austin can get deep every bit as good as Jackson. Austin is a complete WR, Jackson is a one trick pony
In Romo we Trust
It's a hell of a trick
I live here in the Philly area, I see all his games. He’s one of the biggest threats in the league outside of Chris and Andre Johnson.
by DatNguyenNguyenScenario on Dec 29, 2009 9:30 PM CST up reply actions
Maybe Because
a) He isn’t a native of Philadelphia. People often root for the team they grew up with—for example, displaced Eagles fans now living in Dallas. Should they now root for the Cowboys? OR
b) His family lived elsewhere previously and carried a loyalty to another team before they moved to Philadelphia, and he followed their tradition of rooting for them. OR
c) He is a life-long resident of Philadelphia, and can’t stand the obnoxiousness and stupidity of several of their fans, or the futility of the franchise, and has decided to root for the Cowboys.
There may be other reasons, but those three are the obvious ones.
Who says Austin can't go deep
Did you actually watch him play? Sheesh, that is a crazy statement.

yep
Versus the Saints, Austin caught a deep pass for a 49 yard TD
Winning takes talent, to repeat takes character. - John Wooden
Jackson goes over the middle alot....he gets a ton of receptions on crossing routes
Jackson made the Pro Bowl as a WR and a punt returner..btw
"Austin made the play, Austin saved the day" Brad Sham
he wouldn't be alive if he went over the middle a lot
that simply isn’t true at all
In Romo we Trust
Not to mention that he did all that in less games than Jackson.
"What the hell is going on out there?" - Vince Lombardi.
Jenkins is having a nice season, but it's a hard sell to say that he should have gotten a spot over Woodson, Samuel, or DRC.
I think if you put two of my best seasons together it wouldn't come up with the numbers he's going to have at the end of the season. -Troy Aikman on Tony Romo
Samuel? He's not even the best corner on his team
Sheldon Brown is.
What we're seeing is the result of John Madden's retirement
I guarantee you he would be touting Jenkins if he were still broadcasting.
I used to love watching the Madden Team program he did every year.

and it might have gotten Jenkins a berth
Madden was the E.F. Hutton of analysts. People valued his evaluative skills.

Right
which is why the Pro Bowl is the Grammys of football
yea cb is a total joke
its totally big play based. The best cbs aren’t seen much.
We’ve seen qbs in this league try to attack jenkins and fail. Even the best.
INT's partner, that's what they looked at...
"What the hell is going on out there?" - Vince Lombardi.
c'mon.....Samuel is better than Brown.....one thing for Samuel he is a playmaker...
still a top 5 CB in the league
"Austin made the play, Austin saved the day" Brad Sham
He ain't better....
Samuel has allowed 4 TDs, Brown 2. Samuel is allowing horrible yards per catch numbers, Brown is allowing really good numbers. And Samuel’s success rate (amount of catches allowed per pass attempt) is awful, Brown has one of the best success rates in the League…
Yeah, Samuel has more Ints… You’re one of those guys that voted Deltha O’Neal for the Pro Bowl in the year in which he had 10 Ints, right?
Deion Sanders used to say:
An Interception is like the cherry at the top of the cake, with the cake being all the little things that make me the best CB in the League.
Confidence wasn’t an issue for Deion.

We Need To Steal One of Them
I hope Jerry is planning to raid some teams for some talent at LT and safety
I was thinking..
Proves you can find a young LT in draft and get immediate return. Only problem is they were taken high.. Clady was the lowest picked at 12, we will not be close to 12.

Raid who exactly?
You notice LTs have become an overreach position? The demand so exceeds the supply that teams are snagging them much earlier than they’re rated. (more on this in a minute)
When a good LT does come available, it costs a lot to get him. Look at what the Eagles paid for Peters, and I doubt they regret paying Buffalo’s price one bit.
On the flip side, Dallas has Mike Jenkins because teams like the Lions panicked and took a guy like Gosder Cherilus 19th. Same for the Texans and their LT Brown. Not a good player. But once the run started in ’07, there were what, six guys taken between 12 and 21. Ryan Clady, Jeff Otah were rated up there, but Brandon Albert, Sam Baker, Chris Williams and especially Cherilus were not rated that high.
But OT has the best hit rate of any offensive position and teams need young OTs, so I expect this to continue.
Steal A LT in Free Agency
Like the guy in Tampa Donald Penn; we could do what the Vikings did when they stole Hutchinson from Seatle; only issue is I guess the guy is restricted given uncapped year so we would end up spending draft picks.
I don't think it was a steal
they gave him a load of money.

Austin has more catches, yards, TDs, and the same number of hundred yard games as Jackson, and did it in fewer starts.
But DeSean gets the start. That’s a little strange.

Jackson is a 2nd year starter
Pro Bowl is a big part reputation. Jackson already had a rep based on his big rookie year and he built on it this year.
Austin was nobody until October.
It seems like a long time since Austin was a nobody.

How ’bout “Pro Bowl” awards that cost us a free agent or two (Casillas, Maryland, Norton, Brown (not that it was bad), and quite a few others from the ’90s.
Bottom line is the Pro Bowl accolades mean we’re either over spending or losing quality players.

If there was a position for H-back on the Pro Bowl Roster, I would definitely take Celek.
The problem is:
1)Drops passes
2) Doesn’t block anywhere close to how Witten blocks. (He was handling Orakpo on Sunday.)

The fact Austin made it,

2 things a TE should do well
1) Block
2) Catch
We both know Jason is a better blocker than Celek, and he has more catches. Yes he’s got more TDs, but the 2 primary responsibilities of the position, Witten is better at. Those 2 facets trump the TDs.

The other one did make it far too many times....
On a side note I’m starting to think that we’re just cursed with Roy Williamses sucking. Can Roy like change his last name, 85-style, or something?
I haven't cared about the Pro Bowl since the Cowboys had that huge number get in
a couple of years ago and then did nothing in the playoffs. It is nice to see Austin getting some love, though.
Here's to none of them actually playing in the game!
but these guys all deserve the honor, and how many of us at the start of the season predicted Miles would be in the pro-bowl? lol. His season (and what it means for the future) is the best thing to happen to this team since… well Tony Romo!
Congratulations to our Pro-Bowlers. They are all very deserving. Now beat Philly
and all will be right with the World. They’ll add Romo to the squad later, once they see his terrific finish against the Eagles. By the way, the game is on TV (CH 40) in Northern California, Sund. 1:00pm pst. GO COWBOYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Family, Friends, Cowboys, Beer & BBQ. Life is good!
So when we beat the Eagles, and the Packers beat the Cards, and the Giants beat Minnisota, we get a bye?
Is that right?
Family, Friends, Cowboys, Beer & BBQ. Life is good!
Hey...it's NOT about the Pro Bowl
If the team makes the Super Bowl and wins it, then the WHOLE team get’s recognized for that achievement. I rather remember them for that than a few making a forgettable pro bowl.
As someone above mentioned already, the Cowboys had 11 or 12 go to the pro bowl in 2007. Didn’t mean a damn thing when we lost to the Giants.
13 actually I think
but of course it’s not what really matters, and the players themselves say that. so we don’t want them actually playing in the game, when they’re preparing for the SB!
but still, it’s good that they get the recognition they deserve.
Plus, the Austin Pro Bowl jersey will look really cool I bet!
I saw a dog today. Have you seen a dog? You probably have. How was school? Was it fun? Did you get a lot of homework? Huh? Do you have any friends? Do you have a best friend? Does he have a big coat, too?

Witten over Celek is just insane
Look at the numbers
I hate the popularity contest that has become pro bow voting
Desean Jackson... "If He's even, He's leavin"
maybe Terry
but theres no denying that Celek has had a better year than Witten has.
Hopefully Celek has a little bit of a chip on his shoulder now because of it
Desean Jackson... "If He's even, He's leavin"
I'm denying it because it's not true
Witten clearly outperformed Celek all season in terms of being a complete TE and he will do so in these next two games as well to prove he’s the more deserving TE.
In Romo we Trust
Question...
has there ever been a probowl that had two undrafted free agensts (Austin and Welker) in the pro bowl?

Rephrased again...
two undrafted free agent receivers?
I bet this is the first.

Oooohhh, a stat challenge
If you count Antonio Gates (TE) as a receiver, he was selected to the 2005 Pro Bowl with Rod Smith (WR), both UFA.
Rod Smith, Welker and now Miles are the only undrafted WRs to make the Pro Bowl.

Cool
So this is the first official probowl with two undrafted receivers on it’s roster.
by The Immortal Iron Fist AKA AFB on Dec 30, 2009 2:49 PM CST up reply actions
Good point
He did make 3 pro bowls. My sources are corrupted!

Pretty smooth AFB
The way you threw out that legitimate question to change the subject.

At this rate Andre Guroude may be a probowl center for 10 straight years
I think players and coaches vote him in because he is especially large and powerful for his position

I guess the Haynesworth incident
Is showing its upside

I Love It!!!
Hmmm,Dallas has allowed 30pts twice this season,losing twice to the Gimps by a total of 9pts,shut-out a division opponent @ their house and Held 3 top 10 offenses to under 20pts.
Ohh.. and even though the shut-out was against the ’Skins anemic offense we can say our defense makes even the most prolific offenses,brutally average.
Philadelphia eagles fans can't help but be neanderthals sometimes,
Hey Dawk,
Isn’t there a Santa that needs to be pelted with snow somewhere in Philly?
"What the hell is going on out there?" - Vince Lombardi.
Nope
that was Santa’s last visit to Philly.
They’re into pelting canines now, just ask #7.
Winning takes talent, to repeat takes character. - John Wooden
Good job Miles! But this might be a Romo snub
Miles deserved this selection, there are only a few recievers that were as big for an offense as he was. It would have been ridiculous for him not to be picked. I think Romo should have been selected atleast as a reserve, but oh well maybe he will play with a chip on his shoulder sunday and throughout the playoffs.
