http://www.nfl.com/news/story/09000...s-vick-finish-atop-fan-vote-for-2011-pro-bowl Well your Houston Texans got 3 guys to Hawaii, with Leach, Foster, and AJ leading the AFC in votes for that position. Watching these 3 play this year has been one of the few consistent joys this year. No real surprises elsewhere, though I would have C Wake over Harrison at OLB.
These are not the final pro-bowl selections. It is just the fan votes. IIRC, this is only 33% of the total vote. The rest is voted by the coaches and players.
I would love to see Leach finally get his first Pro Bowl appearance. He really deserves it. I guess it took Foster's breakout season to make others take notice.
What? No defensive players? Leach absolutely deserves it. Hope he is recognized as an "all-pro", too.
My mistake. I'm just surprised Leach overtook the lead. His twitter said he was down 5000 from the lead around week 8-9.
well, no one plays defense in the pro bowl anyway. at least with our guys, they'd have guys who are used to letting teams score
Glad Leach got that many votes I expect Schaub to be added to the team later once all the "injured" guys back out of the game. Mario Williams will be named to the team or would have been if not for being recently placed on IR. He is still 3rd in sacks for all AFC defensive ends
Jason Babin going to the Pro Bowl? Who the hell saw this type of season coming from him. Somewhere Casserly has a big smile on his face.
Tennessee's just a place where guys like Finnegan, Mawae, and tribal armed bags like Babin prosper. It's like Sloan making something out of people like Harpring or AK or Okur.
Did he suck in KC, Seattle, and Philadelphia because of coaching?

Perhaps those with a better memory could correct me, but I recall him being played out of position here in Houston quite frequently... OLB, I think??
