About this listen

Shedeur Sanders was added as a Pro Bowl replacement — and the numbers make absolutely no sense. Replacing Super Bowl quarterback Drake Maye, Sanders finished the season with more interceptions than touchdowns, one of the lowest QBRs in the NFL, and ranked near the bottom of every advanced quarterback metric. So how does a player with 7 TDs, 10 INTs, an 18.9 QBR, and a sub-70 passer rating become a Pro Bowler? The answer exposes a much bigger issue: fan voting, media narratives, and popularity contests have completely broken the credibility of All-Star selections across major sports.

In this video, Roman Janeiro breaks down the stats, compares Sanders to other qualified quarterbacks who were far more deserving, and explains why the NFL’s Pro Bowl problem goes far beyond one controversial selection. Is this overcorrection? Media influence? Or just another example of the league losing competitive integrity?
