The NFC seemed to enjoy their trip to Hawaii a little more than the AFC.The best players in the NFL gave a great show to the people "overseas" who had an extremely good game with high scoring and excitement. Some top players included Peyton Manning, Tony Romo, Adrian Peterson, Terrell Owens, Torry Holt, Tony Gonzalez, and much more. Leading after three quarters, the AFC wasn't able to seal the deal against the NFC. Peterson, who was presented as the games Most Outstanding Player, led the NFC with 2 touchdowns of his own in the second half which pumped up his teammates confidence.
Throughout the game we were able to see a good amount of the offense and the defense come into play; as well as the special teams. Both offenses had a combine 784 total yards despite there being a total of 4 turnovers in the game.
Top Stats:
A. Peterson- 129 rush yards, 2 rush touchdowns
T. Owens- 101 receiving yards, 2 receiving touchdowns
T. Houshmandzadeh- 44 receiving yards, 2 receiving touchdowns
P. Manning- 147 pass yards, 1 pass touchdown
T. Romo- 87 pass yards, 1 pass touchdown
A. Cr0martie- 2 interceptions
My Opinion: After watching previous NFL Pro Bowls, they weren't that entertaining for me because of the low scoring. This year there was a lot of action that actually kept people into the game. Seeing all of the best football players from the 2007-2008 season playing together shows how they can interact with each other despite playing on separate teams. It was also nice to see a rookie, Adrian Peterson, win the Most Outstanding Player including a brand new car!
