QBR is made up by ESPN. Tell me the last time the NFL passing leader in yards and TDs didn't make the Pro Bowl.

Tell me the last time a QB with 23 turnovers and a losing record made the Pro-bowl. We can play this game all day. Only 3 QBs can make it and both are deserving. One had to be left out.

RG3 isn't even the best rookie on his own team.

5th in the league in completion %
1st in the league in yards per attempt
Very close to top of the league in INT's per attemnpts
Dude only Threw five picks all year. That's like 3.5 drew brees quarters
Rushed for close to 800 yards over 6.6 yards per carry
2nd in league in passer rating
Oh, waxed drew brees arse on his own home turf in the opening game of season and his team is still in division title contention.

Then make an uproar about Morris not making the pro bowl. Believe it or not a RB and a QB from the same team can deserve to be on a pro bowl roster together.

Gore over Morris is indeed a bigger snub.

Probably the last time he also led the league in INTs.

If youre throwing INTs and not winning games, most of those stats are probably viewed as garbage.

According to 99% of you, that would be a negative thing for the Falcons since Mike Smith is a retard. I'm just saying...

This should be no surprise. It's a popularity contest, plain and simple.

True, but the Saints have a better season with their head coach...and the rest of it takes care of itself (in theory).

Drew Brees is 1-3 against those qb's mentioned. Had he maybe won some more games and threw less picks... I would think we have a point. This is a qb league and there's more qb's now with outstanding numbers. Someone has to be eliminated and i have no issue with it being drew in this scenario.

No issue with any of 3.....
Sure Brees is one of top alternates
However top 3 in passing yards failed to make probowl (Brees, Romo, Stafford)
Ryan has been really good this season even of you wanna hate him because of his team and so has RGIII.
