Pro Bowl selections are not the ultimate measure of talent, but I am the kind os guy who likes to back up his position with facts instead of just saying "It is true just because I say it is."
You’re as full of it as anyone around here Freddy boy. Pro Bowls only carry weight when they’re being used to make your point about how great other teams are. If we try to point out Dalton has had multiple PB players on offense over the years, including elite level talents like AJ and Whit, the excuses start flying and it’s hand waived away.

I have no idea what you are talking about. I always acknowledge that Dalton has had Pro Bowl level players around him. You seem to forget that I am the one who always points out that the QB who can win with njo talent around him is a myth.
The only thing that gets "waived away" is when you break out the "best roster in the league" joke.

But we did have one of the best rosters in the league for a few years from 13-15. Those teams were deep, well balanced, and won the division 2 out of 3 years.

Yea, the Rams OL has declined and it definitely seems like they were limiting Gurley's snaps to keep him healthy for the postseason. Now, they are 7-5 and on the cusp of the playoffs, so they might start using him more like normal. Interestingly, every game this year that Gurley has received 16+ carries, the Rams have won (4-0). In the other games, the Rams are 3-5.
