I just hope none of them can play because of the Super Bowl 
I don't think Joseph deserved it this year, either. I can't really say much about Smith because I haven't paid close enough attention to be critical one way or the other. |

Agreed. Kareem deserves it more than Joseph IMO.

| Wade Smith and Johnathan Joseph DEFINITELY don't deserve it this year. Foster is kind of questionable IMO too. |

Foster has lead the AFC in rushing yards pretty much the entire year and he leads the NFL in TDs, i would say of all the people, he deserves the pro bowl

It's not hard to lead the AFC in rushing when you have BY FAR the most attempts. He's averaging 4.0 YPC and unlike early on in the season it isn't just because we're milking the clock. TDs? You mean the ones that are ALL inside the 5? His longest run is 47 yards.....Spiller is more deserving IMO.
Out of all people Andre Johnson, Duane Brown, and JJ Watt are the most deserving with Schaub being a distant 4th. Foster has been the exact opposite of explosive this season. |

Foster delivers most when it matters
Not only does he lead the NFL in TDs, he also leads the NFL in First Downs, not to mention he is doing all this on a team that has the best record in the AFC
If Foster isnt a slam dunk top 3 RB in the AFC then something is seriously wrong with voting

you dont really have an argument
i dont know what to say to a complaint that Foster is scoring on the goal line, thats what he is suppose to do.
CJ Spiller is on a horrible team and that factors into it, Foster scored 16 TDs that were a huge contribution to 12 wins, that means way more than the 7 TDs that Spiller has scored
Foster has had a low average, but lets not act like its 3.0 or less, at 4 yards a carry you march right down the field and score a TD while eating up clock
you talk about his longest run being 46 yards, well he was also tied for 3rd in the AFC in carries over 20
no matter how you look at it, Foster is deserving of a pro bowl spot, maybe not a starting spot but he is without a doubt in the top 3

The pro-bowls washed up and dumb at this point, we all know this. Plus the pro-bowl always rewards players the year after their breakout years, which is that case for alot of the Texans who got picked.

After years of getting effed out of spots it is nice to see the pendulum swing the other way. Andre, Arian, Duane Brown and JJ Watt were locks based on how well they have played. Chris Myers has played well so his nod seems well-deserved. Matt Schaub made it by default, as I can't see another AFC QB that would deserve the nomination more. That just leaves Johnathan Joseph who made it on reputation. As for Wade Smith.... I am happy for him, but it comes as a surprise.

Chris Myers continues to get ripped off by one of the vastly overrated Pouncey brothers every year. Maurkice had some great moments as a rookie but has been hurt two years in a row. There is no way you can justify a Center who's team can't even run the ball as well as Indy (26th overall) winning individual honors while Chris Myers has more responsibility, never misses a game, and who's team was #3 rushing despite having a complete joke of a revolving door on right side all year.
If Foster isn't a Pro Bowler then who? Stop overthinking the ypc issue as staying healthy enough to carry the ball 335 times as a throwback workhorse back is reason enough given our results. He's the primary weapon in a run-based offense that has won 12 games and you saw this week what this offense looks like without him. CJ Spiller getting garbage yards against prevent defenses doesn't equate to the Arian helping to build up leads, getting teams to honor play action, and grinding out wins. Spiller hasn't topped 100 yards in a win since week 2! If the guy could carry it more than 12 times per game maybe the Bills wouldn't have to let Fitzpatrick throw away every game, but he can't, not to mention that he can't block.
Joseph had a few bad games when playing thru injury, but when healthy he plays at a Pro Bowl level and last year certainly has a spill over effect just like Bailey making it last year in a down year where he was hurt. This is a top performing secondary with him and one of the worst in the NFL without him. How quickly you people forget 2010. Cromartie definitely deserved the start over him though and I probably wouldn't have had a problem with Ike Taylor making it. Leon Hall finished strong, but JJoe was dominant in the first half while Hall was still hobbled. Let's see who covers AJ Green and who covers Brandon Tate before you go proclaiming KJ ahead of JJoe.
Wade Smith is clearly the most underrated Texan. Everything we did this year was to the left and he continues to keep an immobile QB clean. Duane Brown was mediocre until Wade got here folks.
Frank Gore over Alfred Morris is the biggest snub. Jeff Saturday at Center in the NFC is a complete joke and shows just how ignorant people are about o-lineman.
I'd like to see us try and get Bryan Braman to the Pro Bowl next year as the special teamer. Didn't deserve it this year due to the overall bad play by the unit, but he continues to climb the ladder.
Happy Duane Brown is finally getting his due. He deserved it last year.
Glad Schaub made it over Luck as a QB as 18 ints and 40 sacks is NOT Pro Bowl worthy. Hopefully Schaub cements this this week as he vastly outplayed Luck two weeks ago.
