We don't run it a ton. He isn't a bell cow.
Thinking Brown got snubbed is homerism. Hunter & Allen got snubbed. AJ Brown got snubbed.
Cook isn't head and shoulders above others with total TDs, so I can see why that didn't get him in.
He's close to Brown in production but significantly less touches (229) than the other RBs above him.
There are 5 RBs in the league with 300+ touches, 2 of which have 350+.
I agree with your last sentence.
It's ok if a player we think is good didn't make the Pro Bowl.
There is some popularity involved, but it's also often (and mostly) raw production.
The guys who have produced year after year are also going to get the votes over a newcomer like Chase Brown.
Name recognition.
Zac Taylor 2019-2020: 6 total wins
Zac Taylor 2021-2022: Double-digit wins each season, plus 5 postseason wins
Zac Taylor 2023: 9 wins despite losing Burrow half the season
Zac Taylor 2024: Started 1-4. Ended 9-8 but barely missed playoffs
Changes needed to do better in Sept/Oct moving forward.
