[SladeX]

DJ should be all pro. That’s better anyway

[samhain]

Criminal not to have Reader on the roster. Borderline criminal not to have Pratt.

[Destro]

I remember when the Bengals got very little love in Pro Bowl voting. There will be snubs. Oh, well.

The only individual recognition I want is a Bengal to have is to win Super Bowl MVP.

But did Reeder make it? :ninja:

[Johnny Cupcakes]

I wonder who is going to take their place?

Is 5th alternate good enough?

[Johnny Cupcakes]

Seven alternates…

Jessie Bates is a second alternate.
Tyler Boyd and Joe Mixon are both third alternates.
Evan McPherson is a fourth alternate.
Vonn Bell, Ted Karras and DJ Reader are fifth alternates.

Pratt not even being an alternate is pretty silly.

I think you missed my joke. Bfine kept misspelling his name in the GBT’s.

Ridiculous that DJ Reader didn't make it.

The Bengals need to go back to the Super Bowl and stick his absence in the face of all those who didn't see him as meriting being on the Pro Bowl.

I know what the ninja means. I was doubling down because everyone always complains that he isn’t listed. 5th alternate is just as close as you can get to not being listed.

Well, it’s mostly a popularity contest, and he’s not quite a household name yet.

Eagles 8 pro bowlers. Dallas 7. Chiefs 7. Ravens 6. 49ers with 6. Vikings with 5. Bengals only 3.

And this was after the Bengals were in Super Bowl last year.

Don't tell me that the Bengals are not being disrespected. The new darlings Eagles have nearly 3 times as many deemed worthy of the Pro Bowl. Even the Ravens have twice as many. And this is not just a popularity contest, as two-thirds of the votes come from coaches and players. The bottom line is that the Bengals are looked at as not having as much top-line talent as other teams.

If that’s the case, Joe burrow should be run away mvp, doing more with less lol

[Nicomo Cosca]

That’s back-to-back years for Chase and Hendrickson btw.

[*Go Cards*]

The Bengals players will be playing in the SB anyway

Kinda surprised Logan Wilson wasn't getting some love as an alternate, guy is certainly the key cog after Reader on the defense.

He’s been the 2nd best LBer on the team this season. Pratt is setting up a very difficult decision for the FO, as I doubt they’ll be able to keep both of them.

[Nicomo Cosca]

Worth noting that neither Chase nor Hendrickson finished in the top 10 of fan voting at their positions, which shows the level of respect they have from the players and coaches to still be voted in.
Fans count 1/3
Coaches 1/3
Players 1/3
