    So, midseason...
    So far, who do you think is going to be voted to the Probowl?
    Let's keep in mind there can still be letdowns by stars, and great performaces by players not considered right now on probowl talk.

    But as far as right now, since fans, coaches & media get a vote, my guess is:
    By fans: Polamalu, Woodley, Wallace
    By Coaches & Media: Ben, Wallace, Kiesel, Woodley, Taylor

    IMO, the ones that should be in the talk: Ben, Wallace, Kiesel, Woodley, Ike Taylor, Sepulveda

    Polamalu is underperforming, Harrison injured and Pouncey not at last year's level. That's why I believe they will not be in the talk, unless they make a lights out 2nd half of the season

    Who else do you see in the Probowl talk?

    The Pro-bowl is almost always more about reputation and past performance than it is about who has done very well THIS season.

    That said, Troy is probably a lock. Ben should go. Mike Wallace might go. Maybe Pouncey.

    Woodley will go so long as he doesn't miss too many games. Ike SHOULD go. But without fancy INT stats, he'll get overlooked.

    Agreed! Troy will go, Ben most likely, and Mike Wallace should probably get a spot as well. Ike deserves to go, but wont be voted in by fans, possibly the coaches. Pouncey has a good chance just because of the reputation he has from last season. Heath deserves to go for just his effort alone, but because he's not Tony Gonzalez, Gates or Tom Brady's TE's then he wont. Woodley should have a spot as well.

    But....Hopefully none of them get to play in the game! :dancing:

    I think Wallace has turned enough heads and if he keeps it up he has a really good chance of going this year. (I mean getting voted in, but hopefully not going due to having an upcoming game!)

    Troy doesn't have any stats on his side yet this year....should be a good indication how much reputation does for you.

    My guess is Ben and Wallace on Offense and Woodley on D. Ike deserves it, but as stated before does not have the fancy stats to make his game glaring enough to the world.
