Wake Pouncey Fields Title: Re: 4 Fins going to the Pro Bowl Post by: EDGECRUSHER on December 28, 2013, 01:11:12 pm While Pouncey is far from the problem, just even one member from our Offensive Line going to the Pro Bowl seems ridiculous.

I wouldn't get too bothered by this. I've been told by someone here that even a "slightly above marginal" player may make the pro bowl. -EK Title: Re: 4 Fins going to the Pro Bowl Post by: Tenshot13 on December 28, 2013, 03:37:06 pm ^^^popularity contest.

Pouncey is an elite center who does everything very well. He is pro bowl caliber. And he is going as the "back-up". I got no problem with him going. His play speaks for itself.

This year, he didn't deserve it but got it. Title: Re: 4 Fins going to the Pro Bowl Post by: el diablo on December 28, 2013, 08:50:42 pm Congrats to our Fantastic Four!
Title: Re: 4 Fins going to the Pro Bowl Post by: EDGECRUSHER on December 28, 2013, 08:54:55 pm Yeah, I am not bothered by it because he is a good player, just that I think it's crazy that the history books will show that a member of the 2013 Miami Dolphins O-Line made the Pro Bowl. Without 142 people declining the invite first.
Title: Re: 4 Fins going to the Pro Bowl Post by: Spider-Dan on December 29, 2013, 01:22:10 am Jason Taylor went to the Pro Bowl when Miami was 1-15. KC sent six players last year, and they were 2-14. Why should an individual player be punished for poor team performance? Are you saying that Pouncey was individually bad this year?
On a side note, Brandon Albert made the Pro Bowl. What could have been...

At least the Dolphins can pick him up next year and not have to part with a high draft pick Title: Re: 4 Fins going to the Pro Bowl Post by: Downunder Dolphan on December 29, 2013, 08:22:07 am I had a dream the other night - Dolphins in the playoffs, offense on the field, Pouncey & Clay voted to the Pro-Bowl. Don't know the result of the game, or who it was against... Not sure if this is a good or bad omen. Good dream though. ;D Partly right with my dream a couple of weeks ago... ...now the playoffs bit... ;) Title: Re: 4 Fins going to the Pro Bowl Post by: EDGECRUSHER on December 29, 2013, 08:52:58 am Jason Taylor went to the Pro Bowl when Miami was 1-15.

On a side note, Brandon Albert made the Pro Bowl. What could have been... No, I was clear with what I said. I just think it's funny that the records will show that a member of our O-Line made the Pro Bowl. This is the worst O-Line in our franchise's history after all.
