 |
|

Not sure why Morris isn't listed to take Gores spot .  Kerrigans first!
| Quote: | | Washington Redskins linebackers London Fletcher and Ryan Kerrigan will head to the Pro Bowl as replacements for Super Bowl-bound San Francisco 49ers linebackers Patrick Willis and Aldon Smith. |

Kerrigan wasn't anything special this year, but that's cool I guess.

Sweet! London deserves it, he made so many huge plays for the defense this year.I'm Glad our sack leader (Kerrigan)will repesent us in the pro bowl and he had an int for a TD for the 2nd year in a row.

How Kerrigan made the Pro Bowl I'll never know but Morris getting snubbed for Gore and now Martin is a friggin' joke. If the NFL wants the Pro Bowl to be taken seriously then they need to do something about the voting, this is getting ridiculous.

Agreed.
Pro Bowl is a joke. Hopefully they either change it or stick with the AP All-Pro's when it comes down to HoF voting.

kerrigan had a better year than what you guys are giving him credit for. Love how everyone is not excited for him to make the pro bowl though! Great fan support!  
I agree that Morris should have made it

To blindly support a player on your favorite team is aptly called a homer. Kerrigan did not deserve a PB berth, even as a replacement. There is nothing wrong with objective opinion.

He actually had a pretty good year. A good amount of pressure considering he was the only pass rusher,hes good in coverage and against the run. A complete olb.. I dont see who else in the nfc would have went outside of the guys voted in front of him.

What about Lance Briggs?
Sean Weatherspoon?
Thomas Davis?
Lavonte David?
The problem with pro-bowl voting is that it prioritizes the 3-4 rush LB over any 4-3 LB, even if that 4-3 LB had a better season.
Once you rule out SF because of the superbowl, you then decide between the Pack (CMIII), the 'Boys (sent both), the Cards (no pass rush threat) and the 'Skins. It's gifting it to Ryan Kerrigan. You can make an argument for him among that group, but quite frankly the deciding factor is the 3-4.
Kerrigan did not progress as a pass rusher this season, regardless of extra attention. Give me one of the other four 4-3 OLBs.

what about Ryan Kerrigan? He progressed as a football player and leader.
Lance Briggs regressed as the season went on. Kerrigan progressed throughout the season. I don't even know why we are having the argument. Kerrigan is going to Hawaii, the other guys aren't.
Kerrigan had a int Td return again this year.
Kerrigan had one more sack than he had last year and more qb pressures
Kerrigan doubled his passes defensed from 2011 to 2012. 4 to 8
He had a fumble recovery
He became a leader for a defense that did a 180 after the bye week. A defense that became a main reason we won the division.
He's as worthy and IMO more worthy as those other players you bring up.

I tend to agree here with Turtle. While I expected more out of Kerrigan, he had a better year than last year. And I can point that his performance was more favorable over the other choices.

I think this would be different if the Pro Bowl actually meant something in the grand scheme of things.

dont they always mention how many pro bowls a player played in when a player goes into the hall of Fame? I agree the voting system and game suck but it does have some merit.
