Pro Bowl voting begins

The NFL has started the Pro Bowl voting today via the nfl.com website. It should continue for quite a while toward the end of the season. Football Fans can vote for one player, or vote for every roster slot in the Pro Bowl.

While it seems too early to tell the best players of the season, we can still make a pretty good determination of who is worthy thus far.

I don't believe in giving a vote to a player that is not deserving and that includes Broncos. But being biased, I will give the nod to a Bronco that is just as good as any other player in the league. For example: Dre Bly is not playing Pro Bowl caliber football. Casey Weigmann on the other hand, is playing as good as anyone at his position, so I will vote for Weigmann.

Here are the Broncos candidates that I have voted for and am keying on having a Pro Bowl year:

QB: Jay Cutler

WR: Brandon Marshall, Eddie Royal (unfortunately Stokley is not a candidate)

TE: Tony Scheffler, Daniel Graham

C: Casey Weigmann

T: Ryan Clady

DE: Elvis Dumerville, John Engelberger

OLB: DJ Williams. Boss Bailey

ILB: Nate Webster

CB: Champ Bailey

K: Matt Prater

There are other Broncos at other positions that are Candidates, but the players above are the ones I believe in and hope that they will make the pro bowl.

You can vote as many times as you like, and I hope the all Bronco Fans pitch in and vote as much as possible, to help our boys make the grade. Here is the link:

I understand your position...

But…
I think the entire Bronco’s O-line deserves it. They have been one of the best lines in the league as an entire unit, and that rests on the shoulders of all five of them. The fact that none of them stick out as being significantly worse than the others is a great sign. It’s more just the exceptional season that someone like Clady has been having that causes him to be so noticeable.

Your'e right. The entire Oline should get a vote

Here are my votes so far.................

Although I am going to wait awhile to cast them but the only Broncos that are deserving so far for sure in my humble opinion are Clady, DJ, Weigman, Champ, and Marshall. Dumervil has been good the last couple weeks as his injured hand gets better so I will probably vote for him too. Cutler needs to get better about staring down his receivers and spread the ball around more, if he can do that I might give him a vote as well. And I think your right, the entire O-line deserves a vote although I’d like to see more consistency in their run blocking.

The player who thinks he can and the player who knows he can are two different players, which one are you???

Pro Bowl

Right now, I think that Cutler, Marshall, Clady, Weigmann, and Prater should go. Eddie Royal has an outside chance as well. By the way, what about Kern? What do his stats look like? He has been having a good year from what I heard. I didn’t know that the Bronco scouts were that high on him. I heard that they were praying that nobody would take him in the draft.
