JAF-N72EX Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 (edited) It looks like Robert Quinn and Jakeem Grant are the only 2 Bears players selected to the Pro-Bowl. Happy for Quinn, he deserves it. Roquan getting snubbed again is borderline criminal. Edited December 21, 2021 by JAF-N72EX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See Trubisky. I know. He'll end up *going* though is all I'm saying. The Pro Bowl, as you said, is a joke. I hope the Bears don't use the lack of PB's as a negative in negotiations Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abstract_thought Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 (edited) Is it really a snub if there are 2-3 more deserving LBs who go instead? Edited December 21, 2021 by abstract_thought Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From that game Wagner isn't even best on his team. A lot times pro bowl is name recognition. Not sure what other guys are doing. I have seen Parsons. He has been unblockable as a pass rusher. Having an amazing season. ---- Also on side note - I have been watching Aaron Donald. He is the best interior DL in history of game at this point. What is really incredible is he is doing it at like 6-1 and 270. That is really small by today's standards. Some of these guys are like 6-8, 330, athletic and fast. This was before I was on this forum, but I pounded table hard for him in a coaches forum that year. Proud of that. Not many were talking about him that draft. Shows a lot of talking draft heads are know nothing sheep repeating someone else's opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In hindsight the Rams could've had Donald and Mack in that draft 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZBearsFan Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 My only issue with the snub is that Parsons went in as an ILB when his true impact and what’s made him special has been his work as an edge rusher. It would have made more sense IMO for him to go as an edge instead of Barrett, with Roquan the other ILB. It’s not like the guys who are going are unworthy. With that said, if we don’t extend Roquan this offseason I’m pretty sure his 5th year option will be lower because he hasn’t been selected to the pro bowl due to the rules change last (I think) offseason, so while it’s BS for him it actually benefits the team that he was snubbed. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Devin White would have been 1st up to replace Parsons. As good as Roquan is, there are just a bunch of good ILBs who are also deserving.

Like I said it’s not like those other guys are undeserving of the accolades - Roquan is just equally deserving. He’s hurt this year by the Bears not being good IMO. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
