I feel like people missed the memo and we are having a strange conversation in another thread.
There is no pro bowl this year and probably won’t be going forward. Its just challenge
s and stuff like that, just like some of you are wanting. At best there is a flag football game at the end.
I have missed the QB (and other) challenges since my younger years. Mostly the QB one. I swear that and a couple others could be the whole Pro Bowl and I’d tune in for three days straight.
QB Challenge(s)
Kicker Challenge(s)
Punter Challenge(s)
RB Challenge(s)
WR Challenge(s) (Juggs machine maybe?)
Defensive Lineman Challenge(s)
Cornerback Challenge(s)
Just some good spirited fun for a nice charity check. I’d be glued to the TV. I don’t need to see flag football or what it was before either where nobody is trying and actually hitting someone hard is frowned upon.
If you’d rather watch balloon tossing (yes, legit happening this year) than QBs throwing to moving targets 40 yards downfield and 20 feet in the air, that is your prerogative.
I agree. Those challenges were more fun to watch than the actual game. Bring back the trick kick challenge and the kickers game of horse! Also bring back nfl quarterback challenge the video game. Allow me to travel back to the 90’s. Even for only the briefest of time.
There used to be QB accuracy and deep ball contests back in the day. Would love to see that again and see how many of today’s QB’s would pass on the opportunity knowing what was ahead of them.
