    So did Troy and he really isn't having a good year at all.

    It's not so much a popularity vote as it is about name value. When people think of Troy, they automatically think of a pro bowl player, so he'll get the benefit of the doubt, even during a down year. The same goes for Clay Matthews. Also, Stafford should have made the pro bowl over Eli, but Eli has the name value, so he gets the nod ahead of Stafford. I don't think Eli is more popular than Stafford. The media seems to love Stafford.
