Watch the game from last weekend. Look at the pass coverage and the tackling on running plays. Look at the "pass-rush" presented by the defensive linemen - - nominally the best in the league.

The Pro Bowl is flag football without the flags. Hard to make that a compelling contest...

Then let the NFL get U2 to play, not the Pineapple Players or whoever it was. If football isn't the show, make up for it with something else. A 2-bit band with a 2-bit game is just...2-bit.
