[News] Ravens Safety Eric Weddle Among Biggest 2017 Pro Bowl Snubs

[BR News]

Baltimore’s strong safety has been a major reason for the Ravens’ defensive dominance this season, particularly in the secondary, and has the stats to back it up. Outside linebacker Terrell Suggs, defensive tackle Brandon Williams and tight end Dennis Pitta all have solid cases as well.

Weddle is and always has been one of the most overrated players in the league.

[ravenken]

I am so happy we got Weddle. He's the closest thing to Ed Reed in the league. I hope we are able to keep him around till he no longer wants to play. Go Ravens!

Sure!!! I'll take the opinion of some anonymous guy on the internet over PFF's grading ANY day!

[scottsdaleazravensfan]

Maybe if he would've tackled Wentz before he scored until waiting till he crossed the gaol line he would have made pro bowl , heh he's still a great safety!

[Rav'n Maniac]

That is a big snub on Weddle and Williams should have been chosen as well, although it would have driven his price up even higher for next year.

[Fastynart]

I am so sick of this media whining about "snubs". We had 4 players chosen. What do you want, a Pro Bowl team of all Ravens? I am sure other teams feel there were guys that could have been chosen but weren't as well and have the same kind of stats to prove their case. Grow up and get over it.

I like Weddle, He is the best we have had since Ed Reed, but lets not get carried away. He couldn't carry Ed Reed's shoes when Ed was in his prime. No one threw deep on the Ravens when Reed was back there. Several teams have not only thrown deep on us, but have connected for touchdowns and their guys were so wide open you had to wonder if there were even safeties on the field.

Well, I'm not sure how many three time Pro Bowlers have "always been overrated".

[ellicottraven]

Weddle, Suggs and B. Williams are very deserving because in my judgment they are 3 of the very best across the entire league at their respective positions. But, again this is a popularity contest so not bothered.

That has more to do with Jimmy Smith being injured and not going to a Zone defense until last week against the Eagles.

Brady throws a 79 TD over Weddle to win the game in NE.......enough said. The guy talks too much and doesn't deliver.

[Derrel]

will be on the road for the Ravens vs Steelers. Is the NFL Network the only option for the game? The advertisement on the Ravens site says its on NBC.

[dirtybird66]

totally agree! but it's because he's not on a winning team.

You are Delusional. Get outta here. I cannot stand fans like you, You spew pointless garbage. And have no facts to prove what you say. He had one blown coverage and that was against NE. The other times it was on Webb, Lewis and you could even say that one against NE was Elams fault also. Str8 get outta here with that noise man

what i want is not to alway's have our punter and kicker picked first to the pro bowl

[kmspears65]

Hopefully it wouldn't matter if he was picked or not as isn't our long-term goal to get to the Super Bowl?

Your crazy to say he don't deliver because of a blown coverage. Fans thinks this team can't make a mistake whatsoever. How about you do it and if you do better not mess up one mistake or you suck. SMH.

Well then you must don't pay attention. Weddle been one of those top rated safeties in the league of a couple of years now.

I do like the guy, but he froze like a deer in headlights and let Carson Wentz drive him into the endzone for the Philly score with 4 seconds left.

Have you ever played Football Before? Apparently not. Because thats how you Tackle guy. And besides that Carson Wentz is 6 foot 5 240.... Eric is 5 foot 11 200.... Regardless of whether or not Wentz is a QB he is quite a bit bigger then Weddle...

[The Greek]

they should concern themselves about the game against pitt. the pro bowl should be put into extinction. it is awful!!

[Crusader]

Considering what Weddle has to work with he deserves something for coming here and putting up with these guys.

You need to take a vacation. A long one. You have been on this demeaning kick all season. I really should learn not to read your posts.

[FloridalovesRavens]

I'd disagree with that one. We do have a winning record at this time. The Ravens are winners my friend. Many more wins than losses if I'm correct. Go Ravens.

I just checked and its not listed on NBC on Sunday. It IS on the NFL network like you said.

[trevorsteadman]

I'm still surprised Mosley was a probowler... And Weddle was not... Flip those two around and you probably have it about right.

[Halshayeji]

It doesn't matter! Weddle already made his pro bowls and isn't desperate to make another one. I for one am glad he signed for the Ravens and he's surely a Pro bowler in my books. Thank you weddle and keep doing what your doing
