AFC wins Pro Bowl

January 30 11:44 2018

Steady rain was a factor in the 2018 Pro Bowl, but the AFC rallied for a 24-23 victory over the NFC at Camping World Stadium in Orlando on Sunday.

Walker’s second touchdown catch of the day was an 18-yard catch down the seam from QB Derek Carr that gave the AFC its only lead of the day and was the eventual game-winning score. He becomes the first Cleveland linebacker to be selected to the Pro Bowl since Jamir Miller in 2002. “And he’s about to get in big trouble for getting on the field”, Brees explained.

The Ravens participants didn’t have any big-time moments in the game, but Suggs almost came up with an interception that could have gone for a pick-six. “But they loved it”. On the vast majority of plays, the ball carrier would either give up as soon as a defensive player grabbed him, or go out of bounds to avoid contact.

For the Pittsburgh Steelers, they’ll have a number of players representing them this year.

As for the game outside the game, Brees completed seven of nine passes for 66 yards and a touchdown. It was Chiefs’ quarterback Alex Smith to Titans’ Delanie Walker for the four-yard score, putting the AFC within 10.

“We had ’em all game”, he said. They expect him to come back strong, and if he continues the improvement he showed last season, he’ll be right in the mix. It hurts, man, a little bit. “And that’s what we were thinking the whole time“.

Brooks, who resides in Tampa, said he is considering expansion of the Pensacola Under The Lights to include Fort Walton Beach and Destin areas, as well as an additional fall league that would start in late-September or October.

Miller’s game was reminiscent of his play in the 2015 AFC Championship and Super Bowl 50, when he logged five total sacks (2.5 per game), an interception of New England’s Tom Brady and two strip sacks of Carolina’s Cam Newton. He also is the only kicker in the last 20 years (and possibly ever, but this stat wasn’t tracked prior to 1997) to convert four onside kicks in a season, and he led the best kickoff coverage unit in the NFL. At least, at the beginning of the week.

Let’s dive in and break down the things that stood out the most from this year’s Pro Bowl. “But then you realize you were two weeks away from the Super Bowl“. Something tells me he still has a couple more high-impact seasons left in the tank for the two-tone blue.

Once that feeling subsided, the Saints were able to enjoy the week for what it was. Because of these safety concerns by players, the National Football League implemented rule changes making the All-Star game the furthest from its regular-season form. It’s always about having a good time with a bunch of good players.
