I know this question has been asked here before but I’m going to ask it again how will the Pro Bowl the way it is now affect Hall of Fame selections going forward
Can we just get rid of the Pro Bowl and make it an honor instead of an event
Pro Bowl

Re: Pro Bowl
I could get behind it being an honor instead of a game.
One question I have: Is it possible to determine who actually got the most votes, and what order the voting went in?
Ex: A year or two ago people noted that Brett Hundley made a pro bowl because so many quarterbacks turned it down.
Is it known what order the voting went?

Reminds when Eagles QB Mike Boryla went to the Pro Bowl in 1975.SeahawkFever wrote: ↑Wed Aug 13, 2025 1:44 am Ex: A year or two ago people noted that Brett Hundley made a pro bowl because so many quarterbacks turned it down.
Re: Pro Bowl
Ken Riley made the HOF without a single Pro Bowl. And is STILL apparently considered underrated somehow.
As of 2025 I do not think Ken Riley is underrated. Perhaps even overrated when you consider Lemar Parrish. But campaigns work, and Riley got a campaign behind him and got into the HOF as a result. Neither Riley nor Parrish ever won a championship, which is not the only thing, but it does matter a bit. They were a good CB duo and effective when they were together. But Riley is a campaign choice and not a particularly great choice.
No one cares what is done in the Pro Bowl, a single selection isn't going to make or break anything. With 32 teams not all of the AP selections are going to be perfect either. One criteria of many.
