Sure, things are dark in Minnesota Vikingsland, but just because the remainder of the season is mostly meaningless doesn’t mean that we all can’t look forward to the most meaningless game of all: The Pro Bowl.
This season will be especially meaningless as the league will hold a “virtual Pro Bowl”, with players competing via Madden.
For players though, this is a big deal as many have bonuses in their contracts for making the Pro Bowl, or being All Pro. Additionally, as the Vikings are finding out this season, Pro Bowl selections can impact the final outcome of a trade (ie the Yannick Ngakoue trade).
