    What a fricking joke this is....Hes the 3rd lowest rated passer in whole NFC....his numbers on the year:

    2136 yards passing, 13 Tds, 12 Ints
    534 yards rushing, 6 Tds, 10 Fumbles

    I cant believe this shit....let the Vick hype machine roar its engines....Ty Law making the pro bowl was a joke, but not on this level....if i ever saw Vick play quaterback well in a football game, Id die of surprise....this is a travesty, shame, a mockery....a traveshamockery....

    Through 9 games this year McNabb had

    2507 yards passing, 16 TD's and 9 INT's

    Thats more then Vick had all year. Thats sooo funny.

    Yeah that's gotta make the NFL rethink giving the fans 2/3rds of the vote in the future.

    Vick Making the pro bowl does make me want to puke but honestly who didn't see it coming? He'll make it every year on media hype alone. Oh and at least at one time Ty law was a legit pro bowler...though I agree he shouldn't have made it.

    Bakes,

    Are you sure the fans get 2/3 of the vote? I though they got 1/3 and players/coaches get 2/3.

    The problem is a lack of good QB's in the NFC. With McNabb, Culpepper and Bulger hurt, and Favre skills diminishing there is not much better then Vick. As a complete package, it's hard to argue that someone else should have been elected. Eli Manning, Mark Brunnel...Neither one of them is Pro Bowl quality either. Bledsoe??? Not really. Thats the problem, lack of quality QB's on the NFC.

    Come on man... Tiki Barber is the MVP of that team, plus he has Burress and Shockey. And his QB rating is not much higher then Vick's, 75.4 to 71.8. I would say Brunell with QB rating of 87 is more of a Pro Bowler then Eli.

    While I don't think Manning is MVP material, and I don't think either of the three alternatives you mentioned are top-6 QBs in the NFL, I think any of those three deserve a shot before Vick. All three have better stats and play on teams that have at least equal, if not better, records than Vick.

    Here's the stats for NFC QB's listed by Passer Rating.

    1 Matt Hasselbeck SEA 3215 420 271 22 9 56 96.3
    2 Marc Bulger STL 2297 287 192 14 9 57 94.4
    3 Mark Brunell WAS 2797 418 246 20 8 78 87.0
    4 Jake Delhomme CAR 2998 384 234 20 15 80 86.5
    5 Drew Bledsoe DAL 3188 437 267 21 14 71 86.1
    6 Kurt Warner ARI 2713 375 242 11 9 63 85.8

    16 Kyle Orton CHI 1810 354 184 9 13 54 59.9


    Eli is tied with Matt Hasselbeck with 22 TD passes, but his 16 int's are also good for 3rd place in the conference. While Brunell has 20 TD's and only 8 int's.

    Eli Manning started off really hot, and he cooled down when all the pro bowl votes were coming in. The media kept saying over the last couple of weeks how Eli was struggling, so i think that had some effect

    Favre never gets in any longer. Last year he got screwed out of a spot as well. Vick got in over him last year which didn't bother me but Favre deserved it more.

    Ron Mexico making the Pro Bowl has led me to conclude that the Pro Bowl Voting System needs an electoral college with the most votes going to the areas with the greater DWO population.

    He is not getting screwed. He just traded away his appearance in one of his deals
