It's not like we haven't made the playoffs 4 years in a row but alot of our guys deserve to make the pro bowl and they get snubbed since they aren't on a household name team..
Dunlap and whit come to mind as guys who have gotten robbed the past couple of years to me.
With us being undefeated and hopefully finishing as a #3 seed at worst. Do whit Dunlap and illoka finally get the recognition they deserve? If they get snubbed this year then gotta think they always will.
Gotta think aj, dalton, eifert and pacman should be locks as of now .

It depends on what you mean by snubbed.
Dunlap is leading the league in sacks - he's going to be in for sure
Eifert is the 2nd best tight end in the league and had a 3 touchdown game in prime time - he's in
Atkins is among the top DT in sacks, plus he made it on a down year - he's in
Dalton is in the discussion for MVP and is playing like he's the 2nd best qB in the AFC, down years with MAnnig and Big Ben - he's in
AJ gets in always.
Now, who else deserves it?
Whitworth - it's hard to quantify a lineman's value with stats, but he should be in.
Illoka really hasn't made a ton of big plays this year. I don't think he gets in
Pac-Man deserves a bid as well.
We'll get 5 for sure and most likely 6 with Whit.

Dunlap hasn't led league in sacks put he's put up stats to get in past couple years, if he was on new England Dallas or the Jets he would have been in multiple times by now

Wherever there is a NFL fan voting poll.
You will find Bengals players getting snubbed.
Just par for the course.

The plethora of prime time games is really going to help with votes for the Pro Bow, especially with the team performing well (I am assuming they will continue to do so). Prime time is the only chance that most casual fans have to see Bengals players.

Well, Dalton has the third highest overall amount votes. I think we'll have a few representatives elected to the Pro Bowl. Whether they actually play in the game is a different story.

Who cares if they're snubbed for the Pro Bowl.
They'll make All-Pro.
