NFL Pro Bowl Voting Leaders Through Ten Weeks

Three years ago, Peyton Manning and Andrew Luck were the two biggest offseason headliners, as the former was a future Hall of Famer who was suddenly on the free-agent market, while Luck was looked at as the most polished quarterback prospect since Manning. Now, they’re number one and two atop the Pro Bowl voting lists for this season, respectively.

Manning has 359,598 votes, while Luck has followed with 284, 575, with Aaron Rodgers (280,394), DeMarco Murray (263,097), and Tom Brady (254,807) rounding out the top five. Manning and Luck are also the top ranked players at their position in two other categories: Passing yards per game (Luck is first with 343 yards a contest, Manning second with 324), and touchdowns (Manning leads the NFL with 29, Luck right behind him at 27).

Below are details of how to vote for who you want to see in the Pro Bowl, how the game will be structured, and the top vote-getters at each position:

Fan voting for the 2015 Pro Bowl, presented by McDonald’s, will continue online and on web-enabled mobile phones by going to www.NFL.com/probowl/ballot until Monday, December 15.

Balloting will conclude on Monday, December 15. The Pro Bowl players will be announced on Tuesday, December 23.

Players will later be assigned to teams through the Pro Bowl Draft during the week leading up to the game, which will also air on NFL Network.

The 2015 Pro Bowl will be played on Sunday, January 25, 2015 and televised live on ESPN at 8:00 PM ET from University of Phoenix Stadium in Glendale, Arizona, site of Super Bowl XLIX.

The Pro Bowl will be “unconferenced” for the second consecutive year.

Last season, the familiar AFC vs. NFC match-up that had existed since 1971 was eliminated. Instead, players are selected without regard to conference in voting by fans, coaches and players. For example, the top six quarterbacks following voting will earn distinction as All-Stars, regardless of how many are from AFC or NFC teams.

Then, the NFL’s All-Stars will be realigned through a fantasy football-style draft.

The Pro Bowl players are determined by the consensus votes of fans, players and coaches. Each group’s vote counts one-third toward determining the 88 All-Star players who will be eligible for the Pro Bowl Draft.

NFL players and coaches will cast their votes on December 19. The NFL is the only sports league that combines voting by fans, coaches and players to determine its all-star teams. It was the first professional sports league to offer online all-star voting in 1995.
