I know this has been discussed but it's crazy some of the QB's they have over Brees.

I don't think that they announce every player that gets invited but declines. He almost certainly had an opportunity.

people are really bothered by this and I dont even know why. The ones bitching about it probably wont even watch anyway.

The Probowl is a shell of a game and they'd be better off bringing back the competitions they use to have back in the day.

Teddy Bridgewater with his 14 TDs and 9 INTs somehow made it. They should just stop the Pro Bowl if they're not going to make any drastic changes to it.

Clearly you didn't know he got an invite but declined so he could continue rehabbing his foot.

The game is a huge embarrassment for the league. Players should strike it's so bad.

You could win a Super Bowl with the players who have declined to attend the Pro Bowl. Aaron Rodgers...not going. Ben Roethlisberger...nope. Andy Dalton...naw, dude. Carson Palmer...hell to the no.

They are injured, but I suspect if they were healthy, they still would have declined, the way Tom Brady did. And the way Drew Brees did.


I dont think that article says Brees was invited. Or it is just terribly worded.

1) the link in the article on Drews name opens another article that says nothing about him getting an invite
2) The article says a healthy Brady and Brees declined. ... Brees is not healthy.

Which may be the reason they skipped over him (if they truly did) and did not extend the invitation.

those were the 11st ballot pro bowlers. Alternate declines don't get the pro bowl title if they don't accept.
