NFL Pro Bowl 2011: Tony Gonzalez, Nnamdi Asomugha, DeSean Jackson Three Golden Bears Selected; Aaron Rodgers Snubbed?

Three California Golden Bears were called for the Pro Bowl. But conceivably the a lot of arresting Golden Bear in the NFL got overlooked.

Tony Gonzalez was called to the Pro Bowl for the twelfth time, besting Vernon Davis of the San Francisco 49ers and Jason Witten of the Dallas Cowboys for the starting spot. It’s harder to amount out the chief factor–Davis absolutely was one of the toughest covers in the NFC.

Nnamdi Asomugha of the Oakland Raiders becoming his fourth beeline Pro Bowl anchorage admitting not acrimonious off a individual pass–that’s how acceptable he is. DeSean Jackson getting called for his additional beeline Pro Bowl isn’t abundant of a abruptness either; he’s been the primary ambition of Michael Vick for the Philadelphia Eagles, and his walkoff punt acknowledgment endure anniversary adjoin the Giants appealing abundant caked his atom as starting advanced receiver.

One big catechism remains: Where’s Aaron Rodgers? Behind Vick is apparently a given, but Drew Brees and Matt Ryan assault him out? Ryan has had some absorbing comebacks this seasons, but Rodgers has been bigger statistically in about every category. Same goes for Brees. It’s a amusing omission.

Of course, if one of those three quarterbacks end up in the Super Bowl, Rodgers will apparently get alternated in. On the added hand, I’m abiding Rodgers would adopt to play in Dallas rather than Honolulu.
