I still think it’s bogus. He did all he was asked and led his team to a better record than Brady. Tom’s #s aren’t THAT much better. BS I say!

If he plays another year or two at this level, wins a couple of playoff games, he’ll get his shot.

Jake has been playing well and not to lose. I don’t believe he deserves the Pro Bowl this year. There are other QB’s that deserve it more.

Of course I realize Hasselbeck made the Pro Bowl, but he’s not the top vote getter. Vick is. That’s just crap.

Jake is doing everything he’s being asked to do. He manages the offense very well and, when he needs to, has been able to step up and make plays. It’s unfortunate that he has such a bad rep, al beit deserved, because when he does make a mistake or a “bone head” play we all tend to over react.
No he’s not pro-bowl material this year in the AFC but if he was playing in the NFC the way he is now Jake Plummer may be the starter in Hawaii.

I was kinda upset when I found out that Jake wasn’t in the pro-bowl, but honestly, everyone that did go deserves to. There were just too many good AFC QB’s.

I think Jake has done exactly what he has been asked to do this year. He’s been a factor in our success.

However, in the AFC, how can you argue with Brady, Manning and Palmer?

Now, look at the jokes in the NFC. Vick? DelHomme? Gimme a break. Where’s Hasslebeck??

Jake does not need a Pro Bowl appearance. He needs a Super Bowl ring. He can get that by playing inside the system that Shanny has given him.

Jakes doing an adequate job. I don’t think he is pro-bowl material but he is playing much more intelligent football.

Oops, thought the first one didn’t go through. I am actually stoked with Jake, he doesn’t deserve a pro Bowl or even MVP because it is largely Shanahan’s brilliance in coaching him and restraining him and accentuating his strengths that have made him such an efficient QB this year.
