The Pro Bowl to be played before the Superbowl

first time in an age its not been played in hawaii, so this year its in miami!

Probably ties in nice with the superbowl being there aswell, i know if i was a head coach and any of my starters were in the superbowl and had been picked for the pro bowl i'd trya dn pull them from it.

I know its only an exhibition game and they play limited times but it only takes 1 hit and that could be them out.

Players from Superbowl teams will not play in the Pro Bowl.

The reason they switched it is to make the Superbowl the Climax of the season rather than the pro Bowl.

Intersting to see if it works.

Sort of becomes pointless when the players from the Superbowl teams (the two best teams) arent involved

Thinking about it, its a pretty pointless fixture anyway

The Superbowl always IS the climax of the season - regardless of whether the pro bowl is held afterwards. To hold it before is a huge mistake imo. Won't happen again. It's an exhibition game - simple as.

I don't know why they bother. They only did it so they could have their version of Baseball's allstar game. No one gives a damn.

It's been moved from Hawaii for one year as a part-punishment for the Hawaaian authorities not updating the stadium

Pointless game anyway IMO although I believe that a lot of the players see it as a reward for the season they just put in.

Yeah they should just award the status and not play the game, which they can bail on if injuried or in this year if in Superbowl.

If I was Orapko why would I want to play a game 4 to 6 weeks after my real season ends? Hang up the cleats and chill tell next season please.
