Bob Sanders is a great player, but I wouldnt trade ST for any safety in the league, other than maybe Reed.

I wouldnt trade him for ANYONE!!!!!

Re: Taylor is in the Pro Bowl!!!

Just curious, does this count as, for want of a better word an 'official' Pro Bowl appearance?

Re: Taylor is in the Pro Bowl!!!

Interesting how he gets in after his worst year. It will be funny to watch the AFC receivers drop immediately to the ground when he comes into the game.

Somebody is going to get lit up because he won't be going half speed.

Re: Taylor is in the Pro Bowl!!!

Taylor had one off year out of 3. No one can deny he deserved to go last year, and the year before, but this year dawkins and wilson had better years, and I was actually suprised he was an alt...

He does deserve to go at least based, in part, on past merit and the fact that his off field issues kept him from going the past couple of years...

Re: Taylor is in the Pro Bowl!!!

In other news, Pierce is replacing Urlacher in the Pro Bowl. It would be nice to have Pierce and not have to worry about another possible hole to fill, but coulda shoulda woulda.

Re: Taylor is in the Pro Bowl!!!

Good to see Taylor get some recognition.

I'm not going to get into this silly argument as to if he "deserves" it or not. He's an alternate, he wasn't the first choice so relax. Besides, we all know there are plenty of guys that make it each year that don't deserve it.

Re: Taylor is in the Pro Bowl!!!

Say what you will about Taylor making the Pro-Bowl. IMO, Taylor should have made it last year, and even though the team struggled he did the best he could with trying to make up for AA. He played alot better when Fox came in.

But HOW IN THE HELL DOES WITTEN MAKE IT OVER COOLEY???? I mean Witten had 64 catches for 750+ yards and 1TD, thats it he hit paydirt 1 time last season!!!! Cooley had 57 catches for 734 yards and 6TD's and he still doesnt get in. That is totally crazy!!!

That is two years that Cooley was snubbed. I didn't realize that Cooley had that good of a year and he helped me win a fantasy league!

I have to think that he will hit 1000 yards next year if Campbell improves at all.

I really did think that he had that good of a year either but when he is consistant at playing like that we just come to expect it of him. Even if Cooley hits 1000 yards and 4 or 5 TD's he will still get snubbed...

You know why Witten made the Pro Bowl and Cooley didn't? Witten is a freakin' Cowturd. Obviously the media prefers Cowturds over the Skins. Look at how Art Monk was snubbed and the coke-head/whore-monger Michael Irvin was selected to Pro Football Hall of Shame.

Re: Taylor is in the Pro Bowl!!!

I truly believe that if we had fielded a 10-6 team again that Cooley would have gotten his due respect and recognition. It just so happens that good players on underperforming teams get snubbed, while players on good teams get overhyped.

Re: Taylor is in the Pro Bowl!!!

Sanders is a really good safety, but even though I watch a TON of football, I honestly have not seen enough of him to say just how good he is.

Re: Taylor is in the Pro Bowl!!!

I will probaboly now watch the Pro Bowl for the sole reason that Taylor is playing.

He didnt have a "pro bowl" season, but I think given the circumstances he played alright.
