It’s 3rd down, one minute left in the 4th quarter. It’s hot in Orlando, and sweat drips off the players’ chins as they ram their bodies into each other. It’s the best of the best in one single game on January 29, 2017. “Down Set!” is all it takes for 22 men to spring up and slam into each other. The quarterback makes the pass from the 40 yard line, and it falls straight into the receiver's arms. The receiver slips from the linebackers grasp, and hurdles over the free safety. He finishes it off with a dive into the endzone just before time runs out.

For one thing, Pro Bowl 2017 has had a preposterous 7 selections from the Oakland Raiders and the Atlanta Falcons. The Oakland raiders had lots of dynamite moments throughout the season, and ending with a record of 12-4. The Falcons also had some intriguing moments, but their final record was 11-5. Many people puzzle over why the Falcons and the Raiders had more Pro-Bowlers than the Patriots or Cowboys. Both New England and Dallas had the leading records for their league's, but there are only 4 Patriots and 5 Cowboys that are Pro Bowlers.
