A beautiful day, a W for our boys, and most importantly, no injuries as several players from the Pittsburgh Steelers played in Sunday’s 2022 Pro Bowl in Paradise, Nevada.

TJ Watt, Cam Heyward, Najee Harris and Diontae Johnson all arrived to Allegiant Stadium earlier this morning and were ready to roll from the jump. Check them out:

They all looked just as good in their red and white AFC threads:

Our first highlight came from Watt who is the PFWA Defensive Player of the Year. On this play, he made a DPOY type play by strip-sacking Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins. The play led to a pick-6 by Cleveland Browns defensive star, Myles Garrett:

The ensuing two-point conversion was caught by Johnson!

The game ended in a 41-35 win for the AFC, making it five straight for the American Football Conference. Justin Herbert of the Los Angeles Chargers and Maxx Crosby of the Las Vegas Raiders won the Offensive and Defensive MVP Awards respectively.

Overall, it was great to see the Steelers so well represented, just like in years past. Let’s just hope that next year, we don’t see any Steelers playing, as they’ll hopefully be resting to play in the Super Bowl.



Final Stats:

Najee Harris – 5 rushes, 15 yards, 1 reception, 7 yards

Diontae Johnson – 1 reception, 33 yards, 2-point conversion

TJ Watt – 3 tackles, 1 TFL, 1 sack, 1 forced fumble

Cam Heyward – 2 QB pressures

Meh does anyone actually watch the pro bowl anymore…. I watched a few skills competitions yesterday, but I literally couldn’t care any less about the actual game…. Its too watered down and pointless
 
There was a time this game actually was worth watching but like everything NFL it was turned sad. The slide started when the "rog" saved a few $$$buck$$$ by moving it from Hawaii. Then the voting became a scam and finally the moving of it before the SB. Even players not in the SB have voluntarily missed it only to get 2nds and later appointents to the game.

The players know it's worthless, the fans know its worthless and yet the media is confused while the "rog" thinks it's of value (more for the commercials TV contracts)
