If that's the case, I'm highly disappointed. Cribbs needs in as a special teamer, hands down. Nobody covers kicks like he does. Thomas, it's nice, but he's having a sophomore slump, and maybe didn't deserve it this year.

And WHERE IS PONTBRIAND!!!!

I personally think Dawson may deserve it, too.

Not sure about Pontbriand, but I think the AFC coach is allowed to make a few personal selections which includes long snapper.

Its funny how Jenkins got voted ahead of Rogers too. Here's their numbers compared. Rogers dominates Jenkins and every other nose tackle, no one comes close to his production this season! At least he made it.

Kris Jenkins

Also Rogers has two blocked field goals.

Yes, the Pro Bowl is a popularity contest!

You could add Dawson as someone maybe snubbed. Even the guys on NFL Live said it (and of course hated having to use a kicker as a snub).

Rogers deserves it.... Joe Thomas was having some problems but still played a solid season.

Masterbater, Dawson is a 2nd Alternate so it's not that bad of a snub.

Also, Cribbs is a 1st Alternate at kick returner.

Dumbergh, I find second alternate a snub (and so did Golic and Dilfer today).

I find even 1st alternate for Cribbs a snub. He should have easily gotten the returner or the ST player spot.

I find those snubs no different than Cassel and Rivers instead of Favre and Cutler in the AFC.

Thomas does not deserve to be a pro bowler this year. Cribbs definately should be a 1st team Pro bowler for special teams. Pointbrand should always be a 1st team pro bowler, the guy is the best in the league. It's good to see Rogers get recognition for his effort this year, he deserves it.

Where is DA on that list, oh that's right, he sucks, nevermind.

I don't get people saying Thomas has had a bad year. At least according to one resource where they list sacks allowed, he is yet to allow one.

But the real question is how many QB's have to bow out this year for DA to get to go again?

LMAO!

Rogers was a "no brainer".

Thomas was a "reach" (aty least this year), but Steinbach going down hurt him.

Who kicks better than Dawson?, & look at his "50 & overs"!!

CRIBBS?.....I have NEVER, since I started watching Pro Football in the early 1950s, seen a Special Teams player dominate both offensively & defensively as Josh Cribbs does. He should have been a "no brainer" too!!! I'm DAMN mad about THIS snub!

Let's take it out of the voter's hands next year...I would LOVE to (once again) see a 2 back offense.....for now, Jamal & Cribbs. Josh Cribbs would add so much....speed, elusiveness/moves, power, pass catching & throwing abilities....the diversity he would add to the offense is amazing! What a shame to waste him on Special Teams for a few plays a game.

Cribbs is always one step,juke,spin or block away from breaking it...dissappointing he didnt get first spot..Rogers deserves his spot and thomas as well at least some good came out of this years wasted talent and blown season...
