    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Green replaces injured Brady on AFC rosterAssociated PressKANSAS CITY, Mo. -- Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Trent Green was put on the AFC's Pro Bowl roster Friday, replacing injured New England quarterback Tom Brady.It was the second Pro Bowl selection for Green, who also made the AFC team after the 2003 season.Green threw for 4,014 yards and 17 touchdowns this past season, completing 62 percent (317-for-502) of his throws.He finished the year with a 90.1 quarterback rating, his fourth straight 90-plus season. Green is the only active quarterback to do that and only the third in NFL history behind Steve Young and Brett Favre.Green's selection gives Kansas City six Pro Bowl picks, although offensive tackle Willie Roaf is injured and will not play. The others are running back Larry Johnson, tight end Tony Gonzalez, and guards Will Shields and Brian Waters.The game is scheduled for Feb. 12 in Honolulu.</div>http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=2308478

    kinda off topic question: You know when you describe someone as a Pro Bowler? Like, "Oh, so and so is a 5-time Pro Bowler..."Is Brady (and all the other "injured" guys) going to be considered a Pro Bowler for this even if he isn't playing?

Both Trent Green and Tom Brady will be considered pro-bowlers this year. I believe.

    They shouldn't get it unless they are suited up and playing, that's weak.

    I'm glad to see Trent Green get some recognition. He has kinda gone under the radar the last couple of years, but had some of the best stats in the league.
