Pro Bowl might be hampered by rainy, windy weather

[Denver Native (Carol)]

HONOLULU -- The Honolulu Star Advertiser on Sunday morning billed this year's Pro Bowl as Peyton Manning vs. Eli Manning, a battle of the brothers, with the headline: "Footballs Will Fly."

But hours away from kickoff of the NFL's all-star game -- a game that likely will determine if others are played in the future -- a weather system coming through Oahu could make footballs fly in all sorts of directions.

The National Weather Service has issued a flash-flood warning for the entire island of Oahu, including Honolulu where the game will be played. On Sunday morning, winds starting picking up, creating a choppy Pacific. A cold front is expected to bring showers with heavy rainfall to Oahu by the afternoon. Also, there's a chance of thunderstorms that could bring intense rain.

Get pumped folks!

I'm so pumped I'm watching NBC Nightly News and drinking hard liquor!

[BroncoWave]

Last chance to see PFM until the fall. I'll be watching...

I will too, but if the effort is as bad as it was last year, I'll be done with it pretty quick.

[BroncoWave]

Seems like from what the commentators are saying it will be more intense this year. Hope they are right.

Me too.

Pre-game and halftime concerts are so frickin' cheesy.

But sidenote and full disclosure, Train is a guilty pleasure for myself...

I like Train too but I freaking hate pregame and halftime musical acts for football games. They are almost always terrible.

[Denver Native (Carol)]

OK, so the ProBowl will be starting shortly - SO, why are we talking about the SB now - when next week, each day will be full of SB talk.

[MOtorboat]

Just play the damn game.

[BroncoWave]

Just play the damn game.

Yeah, this much pregame shit for the pro bowl is absolutely ridiculous.

[SR]

Yeah, this much pregame shit for the pro bowl is absolutely ridiculous.

Can you feel all the people turning the channel already?

[Denver Native (Carol)]

Denver's Alan Roach must have a lock on announcing at the ProBowl and SB

[Simple Jaded]

I remember when I used to get pumped listening to the National Anthem.

I didn't know the word "Brave" had 20 syllables, that's amaz-za-za-zing.......

[BroncoWave]

And 31 long minutes later we finally kick off...

[BroncoWave]

:lol: What a start!

[MOtorboat]

Lol. Nice effort AP.

[BroncoWave]

Touchdown PFM!

[MOtorboat]

Tillman must have talked some smack at the pool this week.

[ShaneFalco]

Cool to see Manning throw to Green and JJ WATT! lol

[ShaneFalco]

my bro that lives in hawaii, is at the game with my nephew, he texted me a pic of him with the Bronco mascot lol.

[Dzone]

The glove is back...looks like Peyton will be wearing a glove from now on

[BroncoWave]

They are definitely playing much harder than last season.

[MOtorboat]

Move Jonathan Joseph to Safety!

[ShaneFalco]

i love the pro bowl, how often do you get to see Brees throw to Jackson. Or Manning to Green.. Not enough in my opinion!

[Dzone]

Champ, toast again

[MOtorboat]

Champ, toast again

That wasn't Champ.

[Dzone]

That wasn't Champ.

It wasnt? It looked like him...I hope it wasnt

[MOtorboat]

It wasnt? It looked like him...I hope it wasnt

It was Joseph.

[pnbronco]

Wow a real tackle....

[SR]

Watt's finger looked ******* gross

[Simple Jaded]

Watt's finger looked ******* gross

Is that why he had blood on his face?.......

[BroncoWave]

Cool to see Saturday snap one more to Manning.

[sneakers]

Prob Owl is best Owl

[SR]

Is that why he had blood on his face?.......

Face, jersey, chin strap, errrywhere. Gross.

[SR]

Cool to see Saturday snap one more to Manning.

Awesome moment. I had no idea Saturday was retiring

[ShaneFalco]

wow i head no idea Cameron Wake got cut by Giants, then played in Canada.

[ShaneFalco]

Awesome moment. I had no idea Saturday was retiring

should come to Denver to be honest for 1 more year.

[HORSEPOWER 56]

Well, looks like this one is about over. The defense has stopped tackling.

[chazoe60]

Hey Rahim Moore, the Broncos at the ProBowl would like to say thanks, hanging out in Hawaii is sooooo much nicer than prepping for a boring ol' Super Bowl.
















Now go play for someone else.

psmyth12: Broncos Owner Pat Bowlen, who seldom misses a Pro Bowl, visits with Champ Bailey pregame. http://t.co/EDK6UUyY

[Denver Native (Carol)]

Since Hochuli is the head referee in the ProBowl, can he still be the head referee in the SB, or does that mean that another head referee graded better than he did this year?

[Dzone]

Kaepernick interview with dp. Kap is one of the calmest players I ever saw. He said the last time he got nervous was when he was a kid

[topscribe]

Schaub showing why he shouldn't be in the Pro Bowl . . .

[WTE]

Cool to see Saturday snap one more to Manning.

I saw a guy suggest that in the PFT's comments in a post about Saturday retiring after the Pro Bowl. I thought it was a great idea and I'm glad they actually did it.

[Dzone]

Thoroughly Good game. AFC will make a comeback...Wish Schaub had gone to Thomas on the td, he was wide open in the back, but so was cribbs...not sure if that catch counts in the reg season

[WTE]

I think that TD "catch" by Cribbs is the Calvin Johnson rule, right?

[Dzone]

Collinsworth: "I voted for adrian peterson for mvp and peyton manning had to settle for comeback player of the year"..Huh? Settle? what an ass

[Dzone]

Peterson on sidelines saying how great he is and deserving of mvp

[ShaneFalco]

is because von isnt playing. AFC won with him

[WTE]

AFC pissed and tackling hard now. Too late though.

[ShaneFalco]

glad my highschool teammate Jairus Byrd is playing at probowl :)

[SR]

glad my highschool teammate Jairus Byrd is playing at probowl :)

You mean the the guy you watched play in high school

[ShaneFalco]

Nope, i played OLB/FB, we won state :)

[ShaneFalco]

Jarius played both sides as well, he played QB back then. Was pretty damn good at it to for highschool. Probably why he is such a good safety today.

[DenBronx]

Fox tried getting a little agressive this game with trick plays and such. I hope this doesnt mess with his mind for next year and makes him decide to stay conservative.

Anyhow yeah, you can tell that loss to the Ravens still stings Fox and the Broncos.


These guys are all playing at 60% speed. 62-28 now....ouch!

[BroncoWave]

Jerome Boger is the head ref in this year's Super Bowl.

[ShaneFalco]

His dad i believe was an assistant coach on the Rams as at the time 2.

[Dzone]

Good sudeline interview w Fox. Glad to see he is still hurting over thatloss

[ShaneFalco]

Good sudeline interview w Fox. Glad to see he is still hurting over thatloss

i didnt see it, what did he say?

[Dzone]

i didnt see it, what did he say?
Something about not following the super bowl because he is still hurting from getting beat

[DenBronx]

Was Fox calling these plays or Gase??? Cmon...pass to JJ Watt?? Really?

[ShaneFalco]

was that DTs kid?

[Army Bronco]

Nope, i played OLB/FB, we won state :) Thats pretty cool.

[Dzone]

was that DTs kid?
I hope so. Hopefully a sign that he has settled down and grown up since the perrish cox incident..what a crazy deal that cox is now in the super bowl.

[Dzone]

Overall, the Pro Bowl was entertaining to watch. Looks like the game has been saved for the future. Players gave at least a half assed effort. Having two left AFC CBs with # 24 and dark helmets was confusing at times.
Much more interest I think having it during super bowl week. Having it after the super bowl just deflates the pro bowl and nobody cares to watch

[Dzone]

Exciting to know we will get von miller involved in the offense next year as a wide out, Derek Wolfe at tight end and fullback

[MOtorboat]

Hopefully this is a joke.

[DenBronx]

Hopefully this is a joke.

Nope, it happened and the pass was intercepted. Not sure who's idea it was but there was maybe 4-5 gimmick plays in the game and none seemed to work. The 3 right now off the top of my head is the fumbled kick return that was a reverse, the botched onside kick where the kicker kicked it with his heel backwards and then they lined JJ Watt on the outside as a WR. It was kind of embarassing and I thought they were going to take the game serious this year, I know the players played harder this year but the coaches shouldnt be playing like nothing is on the line either.

[Army Bronco]

Well this officially marks the last football ill see till the preseason and i only watched 1qtr and a half. I refuse to watch the Super Bowl this year.

Good grief. It's the Pro Bowl.

We officially made it less than one game before the play call whining started. And it wasn't even a Broncos game.

[BroncoJoe]

I thought it was an entertaining game - fun to watch. The gimmicks were intended to entertain and I thought they were pretty cool.

[MOtorboat]

It's quite obvious that Gase plans to move Wolfe to WR. I'm not so sure about that strategy.

[BroncoJoe]

Well, after Watt whiffed on that catch (hit his hands) I think Gase will reconsider....

[Dzone]

Thats two games in a row that Fox lost because of his overly cautious approach. I hope Elway fires him after that pitiful display of football yesterday

[Dzone]

I totally agree.The gimmick plays were a crack up. I thought it was great to put JPP at cornerback and put JJ watt out wide and have them go head to head. The pass from Luck was terrible and JPP intercepted it.It was funny to watch.

The pro bowl should be fun to watch. Ya, it had a kinda Circus atmosphere, but so what. Its more like a party. For entertainment purposes.I liked the gimmicks. It was different than anything we have seen before. I would llke to see more of that next year. Would have loved to have seen Champ getting to play a little WR and have Manning throw to him. Stuff like that.

[Nomad]

I forgot about the Pro Bowl. I saw the score though.....damn the NFC kicked ass.
