Although not surprising news, interesting that we have had at least 2 selections every year since 1998.  We can wait and see whether we get any in as alternates.

 

Out of our roster, who do you think would be the closest to a spot?  Sanchez was the one that stood out for me, and maybe Vinny for nostalgia.

No Colts deserved to be in the Pro Bowl this season. No one really step up in the absence of Andrew Luck. That egg we laid against Jacksonville was the defining moment of this team this season. 

[Chrisaaron1023]

what a great season

[2006Coltsbestever]

What no Vinny?

[Dark Superman]

The Colts Punter was the only player who had a shot at making it.

[lollygagger8]

If there was an IR Superbowl, the Colts would finally win something 

[pgt_rob]

What do you expect? Not one player really was terrific this season. Everyone can improve by a lot.

[JColts72]

When was last time of having nobody? 1980s? What u expect fans? nobody deserved to be there.

They must have overlooked TY Hilton.

[ricker182]

Hmmm. I wonder why?  

Shocking.

hey i know this may never happen. But if this is to be Gores last year it would be nice to see him in the pro bowl at least one more time

Hilton hasnt done squat this year let alone enough to earn a pro-bowl berth.  The only one on this team in my opinion even close to making it would be AV. 

[ColtsBlitz]

What? I am baffled! What a mystery this is!

Doyle started off rough but he's had a pretty good year.

Not enough for a pro-bowl though.  Right now, he's not even in the top 10 of TEs stat wise.

[csmopar]

And TY isnt even in the top 20..... hes sitting at 24th in WRs

[King Colt]

I'd rather see a winning season then players on a Pro Bowl roster. If a team is winning or playing well for 30 minutes only and the payers are the same for the other 30 minutes what then is the problem?

Teams with most Pro-Bowlers:

 

8 - Steelers (11-3)

6 - Saints (10-4)

6 - Eagles (12-2)

5 - Rams (10-4)

 

Teams with zero Pro-Bowlers:

 

Browns (0-14)

Colts (3-11)

Bears (4-10)

Jets (5-9)

 

They usually go hand-in-hand.  Players on winning teams get more votes because winning teams usually have better players.

I do agree but would always be difficult for him based on the AFC's TE group being Gronk and Kelce.

[VaAllDay757]

Somebody is gonna drop out

A lot of eggs were laid this season. Enough so that a chicken farm would have no more eggs from this season. This would be from players, coaching and owner.

I agree.   Maybe he'll get in as an alternate perhaps

I would say there were two guys I would put in there that deserve it but it would be our punter Sanchez and maybe Jack Doyle that's it the rest didn't do enough.

[Malakai432]

Pretty disturbing but not surprising.

[aaron11]

kickers on a bad team wont get much recognition 

[Luck 4 president]

Last time this happened was 1997. We all know what happened after that.

I was kidding, but many on this board keep telling us how good he is.

[IinD]

3 win team with no pro bowlers? ROBBED...

We finally agree on something. That Buffalo game cost AV I truly believe that.

No Colts in the Pro Bowl

 

Good, I might watch it now.  

[King Colt]

Remember this is the era when " Participation Trophies" are handed out. The last time I watched a Pro Bowl Nixon was president.

[Nesjan3]

The only two players IMO who had a chance to make it at the beginning of the Season would have been TY HIlton and Jack Doyle, both have had underwhelming seasons...whether its quarterback play, playcalling, or just not giving 100% because of the teams culture, i expected these two players to be the leaders of the team in Lucks absence, both dissappointed big time. I really hope Luck returns and we have a new coaching staff next season cause this team needs some changes in a HUGE way!

[BlueShoe]

No Colts in the Pro Bowl was hard earned. 

[gacoop1]

Pagano coached team don't deserve it....

[IndySouthsider]

Remember when we didn’t need Incognito

[WoolMagnet]

Well, on the bright side, none of our guys will get injured in the game.

[rock8591]

Very surprised that TJ Green did not make the pro-bowl this year, HUGE snub.

Will boycott the NFL until he makes the pro-bowl.

 

[MacDee1975]

I can't believe that none of our stellar interior linemen, Jeremy Vujnovich, Joe Haeg, Mike Person, didn't make the Pro Bowl.  What a crock.

People threatened to boycott the team if they signed Ray Rice or Joe Mixon...while already hiring convicted felons like Mike McGlynn.

 

He murdered a million doughnuts during his time here, and facilitated assault on the quarterback.
