PS3 Franchise SKIPPED SUPER BOWL - ????

mtreznin · 10-26-2009, 01:54 PM

I'm sorry of this has been posted elsewhere, but....

I just played through year one of my franchise, had a great time, battled through the playoffs, won the AFC Championship with my Bolts over the Steelers

----

Then, all of a sudden the next game on the NFL schedule is the Pro Bowl - WTF?

It skipped right by the Super Bowl - Has anyone had this happen to them?

Thanks!

Play the Pro Bowl. See what your next week is.

Hint - the NFL changed the date of the Pro Bowl.

haha, Raider is right.....The pro bowl is now the week before the superbowl, which kinda stinks for the NFL because if you're a player playing in the Superbowl your coach will not let you play in the probowl and get hurt and ruin chances for superbowl. And if they did let superbowl players play I would think that teams would pay players to hurt them during that game

or atleast that's what i would do.

I think that switching the Pro Bowl to the week before the Super Bowl is a great idea.

The pro Bowl has been declining in popularity every year, because after the Super Bowl, most people just don't care. But in that Bye week between conf. championships and Super Bowl, people are jonesing for some football. The Pro Bowl will quench that thirst.

It has probably been declining because nobody wants to or has the money to travel all the way to Hawaii for the game. They shoulda kept the same date but just moved the game back to the continental U.S.

I think that the game is not in hawaii this year

I hate to say it but they may be better off moving the Pro Bowl to London.
They are crazy for some nfl over there now.

It makes sense to me, instead of having our fans lose a reg. season game in the US, move the Probowl to London.

the game is in Miami.
and if the NFL keeps it as is, it will always be in the Super Bowl city for that year.

I was really referring to declining number of people watching on TV.
