Adewale Oguneleye and Jason Taylor were the top 2 sack leaders in the NFL. The only reason (I think) that JT wasn't selected was because it'd be two Dolphins starting at DE. Although they both deserve it, the NFL elected only one so that other teams could have someone.
I know it was great, I loved it. But the guy deserves to be there more than all but 3 players at that position. I guess it just goes to show that the fins can't get a break in any aspect of the game.
I believe (not sure on this) that at the time of pro bowl selection (week14 or so), JT stats were not as impressive. He had a great end to the season (including 2 sacks week 17). Does it really matter anyways? We all know, outside of Strahan, he is the best DE in football.
Originally posted by PhinPhreak YHea they probably didn't want a repeat of last years game when ithe game should have been called the Fins pro bowl as they owned the game.
Taylor isn't there because at the time they selected the teams he wasn't in the top 3 in the AFC in sacks, instead he was fourth. Jason wasn't as good this year as he was in 2002 but I still think he deserves to be there.
