Trent Edwards will throw for 3,500-plus yards, over 20 TDs, fewer than 10 INTs and make it.

Moorman, Lynch, Evans and Peters all have a shot.

Stroud's gonna deserve it, for sure, because he's the defensive MVP, the straw that stirs the drink. Without Marcus, we're probably an average-at-best defense. Whether he gets in, who knows? It's a big popularity contest.

Poz, Stroud,Whitner, Lindell, Moorman

Parrish is he hadn't gotten hurt

I am not sure about Moorman. Lechler is very good as well. Poz is not a Pro Bowler. Youboty is not a starter, let alone a pro bowler. Evans is not a Pro Bowl guy.

Stroud should be. Whitner will have a tough time with Reed and Polalameu (sp) in the AFC.

Really there are only 1-3 guys who have a real chance.

If it's about helping your team win and being clutch, Edwards.

Realistically, Stroud and possibly Lindell... Edwards doesn't have the name value or TDs necessary at this point to unseat some of the top dogs, and Lynch just doesn't have the yards, though he has less competition outside of LT and Larry Johnson.

Honestly, I don't see anyone on this team being a Probowl starter.

Our standout guys have opposition in the AFC that is a. better than them and b. more name revognition.

You say Poz...the nation says Ray Lewis.
You say Moorman...welcome to Lechler.
Evans? Moss, Marshall, Welker, Ocho
Lynch doesn't have the numbers to justify even being thought of as a probowler on top of the fact no one in the league can carry LT's jock.
Whitner? :rofl: Reed and Polamulu and then Bob Sanders - even though he's hurt.
Youboty? a nickle back making the probowl, riiiight.

I'd be shocked if we had any probowl starters or if we sent more than 2 guys to the probowl at all.

Probably only Stroud and really he's the only one who deserves it too. Nobody else on this team has exhibited pro bowl caliber play. We've won by good plays from everybody when needed not by one guy leading us.

Yobouty is playing great but the Pro Bowl has little to do without how solid you are.

Stroud
Kyle
Poz
McGee
Youboty

The bolded players are having a pro bowl year right now, the un bolded are doing very well, and could sneak in.

Wow, Youboty isn't even the best CB on this team, or the 2nd best in the mind of the coaching staff, how in the hell do you think he's going to be considered Top 3-4 in the AFC????

he's a great nickel back, I'm hoping he gets voted in for that reason.

I hope to see Whitner in the Pro Bowl, just so I can read the Op rant!

Id like to say I think its absurd to even discuss the Pro Bowl after only 4 weeks. I think the season should be no less than half over before you can even begin to determine if a player is Pro Bowl worthy.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
But what the hell, since everyone else is doing it.<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
LOCK
Marcus Stroud: 2 Sacks, Big reputation and has changed the culture of our front seven. Barring injury, he’s going to <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" /><st1:place w:st="on"><st1:State w:st="on">Hawaii</st1:State></st1:place>.<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
VERY REALISTIC<o:p></o:p>
Marshawn Lynch: Only 3.5 YPC and hasn’t had a 100-yard game yet. But he is on pace for over 1400 total yards from scrimmage and 16 TD’s. Those are definitely Pro Bowl numbers. He’s also developing a big-name reputation which will help.<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
REALISTIC<o:p></o:p>
Trent Edwards: As always there will be a lot of competition. Cutler should be a lock while Favre looks real good. Peyton Manning is right there as is Rothliesberger. But if Edwards keeps it up, stays healthy and the Bills end up winning 11 or more games, he’ll have a great chance.<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
SO-SO CHANCE<o:p></o:p>
Lee Evans: On pace for over 1300 yards already, and Evans is a notorious slow starter. If he continues his trend of getting better in the second half he will end up with a huge season. Moss and Welker aren’t locks any longer with Brady gone, and either is Chad Johnson. He has a shot.<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
NOT LIKELY, BUT NOT IMPOSSIBLE<o:p></o:p>
Aaron Schobel: Hey, reputation proceeds itself. Look at all the Pro Bowls Ruben Brown made. Schobel only has one sack, but if he can go on a run over a couple of games and he ends up around the 7-8 sack mark, he will get considered.<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
Donte Whitner: I personally don’t’ think he makes enough plays to be considered a Pro Bowler, but his tackle numbers are among safety leaders and he’s considered the leader of this team. That will mean something.<o:p></o:p>

Stroud is about the only one right now. I would say Parrish as well as a returner had he not gotten injured.

Stroud and Poz. Maybe Parrish, maybe Moorman.

Edwards looks good but he would have to unseat a couple really good QB's to make it in the AFC. Manning, Favre, Cutler, Rivers, and even Rothleisberger.

Lynch has pro-bowl talent, but he isn't benefitting from a mediocre o-line in terms of run blocking.

The only ones that deserve to go are Stroud, Edwards, and Moorman. Perhaps Jauron as head coach.

1. Moorman might not make it because of Shane Lechler.

2. Not Lindell -- He's not well known around the league like other kickers.

3. Not Whitner -- He doesn't even deserve it. Not over Sanders, Polamalu, and Dawan Landry. Even Gibril Wilson (Raiders) may be picked over Whitner just by popularity.

4. Not Poz -- Ray Lewis will make it over him. Jarod Mayo might be defensive ROY. James Farrior is also well known, as is DeMeco Ryans and David Harris.

5. Aaron Schobel might make it due to popularity, but he certainly doesn't deserve it.

If Jauron's the head coach, that would mean the Bills lost in the AFC title game.

Is that how it works? I didn't know that. I thought it was a popular vote just like all the player positions.

Yep. Check out the coaches for each side over the years: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pro_Bowl. You'll notice that all lost their respective title games during that same season.

If Edwards keeps up the fourth qtr heroics hes a LOCK. D Anderson made it last year and he didnt even start the season. Manning is starting very slow. Rivers team is sketchy, Big Ben is getting hammered but might pull it out. Favre will crash and burn before the season is over. Cutler is a lock.

Evans will make it if he rides the coat tales of Edwards.

POZ if the team continues to win. J Mayo is still trying to catch Ronnie Brown, he wont have time. R Lewis is a lock.

LT and LJ have the upper hand, but I only see Tenn's back and Lynch as any competition.

How anyone can look at the inconsistent play of Trent Edwards and think thats pro bowl worthy is beyond me. Pro Bowl players dont just make plays in one quarter but they do in every quarter game in and game out. Only Stroud so far has done that effectively.

Welker and Ocho? Moss may get in, but it would be on name alone. Without Brady, Welker is coming back to earth and Ocho hasn't done jack all season. Housh is putting up better numbers than ocho.

Evans is the 2nd leading WR in the AFC behind Marshall, so to say that is out of the question is not true.

I am pretty sure everyone on this board has seen the play of Edwards which is why he is in the discussion. Obviously it is still early, but he is the 3rd rated passer in the AFC behind Cutler and Rivers and he is on a 4-0 team.

He is completing over 65% of his passes and thrown only two INT's.

That doesn't sound that inconsistent.

He does what it takes to win the game and that is a sign of a pro bowl QB. I think the team is still a little inconsistent, especially when it comes to pass protecting, but Trent is playing well.

I think that it is too early to say on him, just because he is still young as well as the season, but it shouldn't just be dismissed....

Stroud, and Kyle Williams both deserve it. I wouldn't say POZ yet but maybe in a couple weeks. Whitner has a chance. I would put Edwards in so far because without him we are at best 1-3.

That said, I ain't voting for anyone. They always come back wanting a bigger contract. Stroud will deserve one (if his play continues), but I don't want the back against the wall scenerio again.

If the Bills continue to rack up wins, Edwards will get some consideration.
