How did ODBJ get snubbed. He may have been the best WR in the nation this year.

Don't know as that makes no sense at all. Taken from Wikipedia - "Players are voted into the Pro Bowl by the coaches, the players themselves, and the fans. Each group's ballots count for one third of the votes. The fans vote online at the NFL's official website. There are also replacements that go to the game should any selected player be unable to play due to injuries. Prior to 1995, only the coaches and the players made Pro Bowl selections." Maybe go back to prior 1995?

Internet voting is bullshit. I can accept it up until the time it has actual consequences. That said, it's hard for me to muster much passion about who's in or not in the Pro Bowl.

Chip Kelly said Fletcher was probably their MVP. Just weird he didn't make it. Down the stretch, there wasn't another dl in the league playing better.

ODB wasn't playing much until the second half of the season. If he played all season, he would've been #1 in votes and had a historic year.

He still had a historic year and he shattered many records including most games ever in a row with over 90 yards and 7 receptions. He broke the all-time record. Not just rookies. In 12 games he had 91 catches, 1300 yards and 12 TD's. ODB was the best WR in the NFL this year.
