The league-leading Philadelphia Eagles, who boast eight Pro Bowlers (and six starters): wide receiver A.J. Brown, guard Landon Dickerson, quarterback Jalen Hurts, offensive tackle Lane Johnson, center Jason Kelce, pass rusher Haason Reddick, running back Miles Sanders and cornerback Darius Slay.

 

Good stuff. And happy none of them are gonna play in it. 

Our offensive line was playing flag football just a few weeks ago.

There isn’t actually a game, it’s a skills competition 

@LeanMeanGM

I predicted Graham in the PB. Will alternate count or do I require an injury?

Shocked Hargrave is an alternate. Double digit sacks for a DT still with 3 games left should be a lock

I think we were really spoiled with a lot of great play from many players on the team this year and we're going to feel miffed on some who didn't get it but they all can't get it but it feels great having such an awesome team this year

That was a really great signing by Howie. 

Lots of Howie picks on the PB and alternate list. Maybe Howie’s a better drafter than he gets credit for. 

Hargrave was snubbed, Bradberry might be the biggest snub

I know. Happy none will attend.

Goedert would have undoubtedly made it too if he didn't get hurt.

Snubbed. CGJ

I think watching the Sirianni announcement the players all felt the same too.

Also, it is safe to officially label the Dickerson draft pick as a boom. He was a high risk, high reward prospect due to his injury history.

The reward was officially worth it.

And I completely agree with this. He was worth the risk and its absolutely paid off. 

I was surprised by his pro bowl selection though as I'm not sure he's had that kind of year. And that's not to say he's not had a good year. 

Blankenship will be there next year

His chemistry with Mailata is awesome. Gonna be quite the tandem for the next 5-10 years.

Every starting OL and DL either a first or an alternate.

I wonder if that's ever happened anywhere before?

Feel like he’s gone totally under the radar. He had a solid rookie year and this year he’s performed to a pro bowl level with no one really mentioning him. Great pick 

Don't they have an Assistant Coach of the Year award now and why is it not called the Jeff Stoutland Trophy yet?

Did you know that if your team has 8 pro bowl players its not fair for you to be MVP. If you only have 7 then you are a god among men for lifting such a terrible 7 pro bowl player team with a HoF coach trying to go to his 4th SB.

Its rough having to play QB for a team going on their 10th straight season with a winning record. (5 with Alex Smith) How can anyone expect poor Patrick Mahomes to win his division against the Raiders, Broncos, and a few healthy Chargers (Schrodinger's Chargers are terrible when you want to support Herbert and great when you want to support Mahomes)

Mahomes does not have a single win against a team that was even close to as good as the Chiefs. Don't give me the 3-3 49ers who just lost by 14 to the Falcons.

He has lots of passing yards and he lost to Indy. Cincy and Buffalo have the tiebreaker on his team because he was not good enough. That is not the MVP. That is the OPOY.

Why do you care about MVP.  That is not an award fans celebrate.  Fans celebrate their teams being champions, not individual awards.

Seems to me you care about 1 player over the team.

Wow thats 17 guys not going to the Pro Bowl when we go to the Super Bowl.

And its just a skills competition now. Gone are the days of getting rocked by Dawkins.
