Obviously the Pro Bowl itself is a joke but I like the way they are moving with the Skills Showdown/Dodge ball game. Who doesn't want to see that? Doug should make a solid showing with good hands and quick feet.

All-Pro is nothing to do with the pro bowl. All-pro is the best position players as voted for by the media.
My understanding is if you are named as a starter or end up actually there even if initially an alternate you get the moniker probowler. So Tom Brady is a probowler as now will be Andy Dalton who is Brady's replacement. Interestingly Tyrod Taylor was supposed to be the replacement but as he was neither a starter or ultimately a replacement he will not get pro bowl honours for this season whilst Dalton does.
