The 2011 Pro Bowl rosters are led by Tom Brady and Michael Vick. The 2011 Pro Bowl rosters were revealed on Thursday night, and the two leading vote getters were no surprise at all.
Barring injury, they will get the chance to start the 2011 Pro Bowl on Sunday, Jan. 30 in Honolulu. This is also barring either of them playing in the Super Bowl, because the Super Bowl will be taking place the week after the 2011 Pro Bowl.
The other quarterbacks selected to the 2011 Pro Bowl rosters were Philip Rivers and Peyton Manning in the AFC, and over in the NFC it was Matt Ryan and Drew Brees. It would be hard to argue against any of these players being selected, as they all had very successful seasons in 2010. Only Rivers looks to be out of the 2011 NFL Playoffs, so it is also a very fair representation of the playoff teams.
Some of the other offensive starters for the NFC are running back Michael Turner, fullback Ovie Mughelli, and wide receivers Roddy White and Calvin Johnson. They all put together great seasons, and it really shows how much the voters felt that Atlanta had achieved this year.
On the AFC offense, the other starters include running back Maurice Jones-Drew, fullback Vonta Leach, and wide receivers Andre Johnson and Reggie Wayne. Johnson was the top vote getter when it came to the wide receivers, and he did indeed put together another one of his great NFL seasons.
In total, the Atlanta Falcons led the way with seven 2011 Pro Bowl players, and the New England Patriots followed them with the most in the AFC with six players. Many analysts have been saying that could be a possible Super Bowl match-up in February.
The 2011 Pro Bowl takes place on Sunday, Jan. 30 this year, with the Super Bowl being played out on the following Sunday.
