2011 NFL Pro Bowl: Steven Jackson leads the Rams in voting

by Ryan Van Bibber on Dec 26, 2010 7:59 AM CST in 2010 St. Louis Rams season

On Tuesday, Dec. 28, the NFL will announce the 2011 NFL Pro Bowl rosters. Will the St. Louis Rams be represented or will they once again get left off the list, snubbed for the NFL's all-star game that nobody watches anyway?

In terms of total votes, RB Steven Jackson leads the Rams with 359,704. That's not even half of the votes that Adrian Peterson received as the running back with the most votes. QB Sam Bradford was the second leading rookie for votes, with 305,000+, second to Ndamukong Suh. I guess actually getting your team some wins only counts for a little, huh?

So, in order for any member of the St. Louis Rams to make the roster, they'll be counting on the spots not awarded by fan vote.

There are a number of Rams players who have a case this year, but the one I'd really like to see on the list is P Donnie Jones. Sort of a reward for getting overshadowed all those years when the Rams so desperately needed his leg to prevent a complete blow out at the hands of opponents.

Its better than the "Runners Up" bowls they used to have.

There are a few Rams I’d like to see. Amendola deserves a little play time. Long and Laurinitis (maybe he’d make it if his name was spellable) should get a chance to showcase their skills. Plus I’d love to see what Bradford could do with a little talent around him and a coach that calls decent plays.

i have been calling for donnie jones in the probowl for a couple years now

who on our team really deserves a shot? sam bradford, while amazing isnt even close to the best NFC qb this season. the only players i can think of who really have a legit shot are laurinitis and jackson, nor i would it be a great offense if they didnt make it.

Sam Bradford is a frack-up with the ball in his hands too

Just blew Brandon Gibson’s biggest catch and yac for the season.

Bradford is a rookie, sure thing, but fumbling the way he did as a QB was bull. He is throwing away THE OFFENSE SUCCESS AND ROY honors game by game, little by little.

Now, it will be SUH or a Tight End imo, unless something dramatic happens the rest of this game and next.

Sam will need back to back 300 yard games imo to overcome his stupid “green boy pop warner” mistakes……

Even the announcers agree with me

about Bradford.

He fucks up the team with the most greeny pop-warner b-s.

Then, Special teams lets other team back in game.

So, offense is now sputtering again.

Just like KC and NO – Bradford fux-up.

Hey, it is the Rams though – inconsistent losers with amazing bits of success that make no sense at a later date when judging the ineptnesses from stupid unforced mistakes.

Yeah, Sam's QB rating was only 107 today. One TD and no Ints.

What a bad QB. All he has done is break the all-time rookie QB record for pass completions this year, with still one game left. And he’s done it with a bunch of fringe receivers who wouldn’t see the field for anyone else. And he’s led the team to more wins this year than in the last three years combined.
