Kyle Long going to probowl?

[Brandon Marshall]

I saw that Kyle Long is a probowl alternate, does that mean he is the 1st choice to go if somebody else can't? If that's the case, he's going to the probowl, since one of Vasquez(Broncos) or Mankins(Patriots) is going to the Superbowl and missing the probowl. Iupati would also miss the game if the 49ers make it. I can't find a list of the alternate order, so sorry if there is one out there and I missed it.

if that's the case, either Mankins of Vasquez definitely aren't going

I really like Kyle Long, especially considering he's a Chicago Bear.....But,

Sometimes I feel that he gets extra media attention & accolades because he's Howie Long's son.

He's been receiving hype since the PreSeason since he's the first Bears first rounder to pan out since Greg Olsen. It has more to do with the fact that he's a first round pick on an o-line that doesn't lead in sacks given up anymore.

This... lol its exciting when a 1st rounder isn't on IR by the 2nd minute of fucking TC... (yes I know I am over exaggerating)

He was hyped the moment he was drafted......Because his father was Howie Long.

Considering that Mills was a 5th round pick, I would think his success was the bigger story.

In the case of Chris Williams, you wouldn't be exaggerating much.

They both are good stories, considering how little experince Long had and how much of a long shot Mills was. Mills was not that great this season (think he ranked near the bottom of starting tackles) but being a rookie 5th round pick he still outperformed expectations.

The power of Jon Gruden and a recognizable name got the nod.

I don't know if for guard there's just 1 alternate and it's him, or if there's 2 and he is the 2nd. Don't care to look that up myself though.

Is Warford an alternate? He's light years better than Kyle.

Thank you!

He may have meant pancaked by every DB he ever played against.

Dude, this was really Kyle Long's first year of action. Played sparingly in college for one season. Long's ceiling is greater than Warford's. Warford is a great guard though.

Bears RG Kyle Long, a 2nd alternate to Pro Bowl, is expected to be nominated to the game if the 49ers win Sunday & Mike Iupati is ineligible

Probably but he should continue to get a lot better since he's kinda new to it all still. I would think based on performances this year there would be a lot of guards who should go before him. Is Slauson even going? He was far and away the highest rated lineman for the Bears.

Nah, ESPN says he sucks
