The 2022 NFL Pro Bowl can't be said to be brilliant (lack of confrontation after all), but at least it's fun. In the Pro Bowl game in the early hours of this morning, there were 6 interceptions in the first half alone. The situation in the second half was somewhat one-sided, with the American League leading by 20 points at one point, and finally "releasing water" in the fourth quarter, beating the National League 41-35.
The two teams scored high in the first half, with the American League taking a 28-21 lead with two defensive group scores and two touchdowns passed by Justin Herbert to Mark Andrews. In the third quarter, the touchdowns of Hunter Renfellow and Steven Diggers extended the American League lead to 20 points. In the final stages of the match, when Kyle Pitts and Darwin Cook received two touchdowns from Keller Murray, the National League was close to the score. But in the final round, Mike Jones found Najib Harris in the second-yard offensive group in four gears to help the American League get a new first attack and win the game.
It is worth mentioning that this is the fifth consecutive time that the American League has beaten the National League in the Professional Bowl game. Games like the Pro Bowl are the perfect place for leagues to try to present new ideas, such as this time the Pro Bowl, the league eliminated the gambling kick. The original gambling kick was replaced by the side of the half to play four gears 15, in terms of specific effects, the United States and the League of Nations forced 4 gears 15 to play crazy, but all 8 attempts failed.
Justin Herbert and Max Crosby won offensive and defensive MVPs, respectively. Remember the final round of the regular season, the Las Vegas Raiders' amazing battle against the Los Angeles Lightning, a month after the Raiders rushed to pass The Crosby and the Lightning quarterback Herbert met again in the Professional Bowl, and both were the best players? Crosby scored two tackles, three broken passes and five tackles today. Herbert was attending the Pro Bowl for the first time, directing the first two touchdowns in the American League.
Another highlight of the game is the brother-to-brother showdown, Stephen Diggers vs. Trevon Diggers. The brothers were very present throughout the afternoon, and even staged the confrontation of real knives and guns. Stephen may be the last laugher, he threw off his brother at the end of the third quarter to complete a catch touchdown, and also a little "taunted" his brother after entering the touchdown zone.
While the Pro Bowl lacks intensity, there is no shortage of brilliant performances, and the most pleasing thing today is not the long-pass home run offense, but the defense. Keller Murray, Cork Cousins and Russell Wilson sent out interceptions in the first quarter. Murray's ball went to Darius Leonard, and Patrick Mahomes was laughed at by Antonio Winfield Jr. According to statistics, there were a total of 8 mistakes (7 interceptions and 1 miss) in this game, and each quarterback who appeared sent a copy interception, and Wilson sent two.
In general, the professional bowl is considered the last appetizer before the Super Bowl. Now that the game is over, we look forward to the Cincinnati Tigers and Los Angeles Rams bringing us a wonderful peak showdown on Valentine's Day on February 14.
