The New England Patriots have plenty of great players who deserve a Pro Bowl nomination.

The Pro Bowl may be the worst all-star game in the 4 major sports. Still, it is an honor to make it on the roster. There are definitely some players on the New England Patriots that should be headed to Orlando.

The NFL has really messed up the game. It seems like players don’t even want to play in the game. It is a glorified flag football game. Gone are the days of Sean Taylor lighting up players in the Pro Bowl.

Still, there are plenty of players on the Patriots that deserve to make it on to the roster. The Patriots are getting some great performances from some great players.

This season has been unique for the Patriots. The team hasn’t been as dominant as they have in the past. It seems like the team might be in a transitional phase.

Somehow New England still has a great chance to make it to the Super Bowl. They are at the top of the AFC and with the Kansas City Chiefs losing one of their best players in Kareem Hunt, New England has a good chance of getting a first-round bye.

The Patriots wouldn’t be in this position without some great performances from some special players this season.

So here are 5 New England Patriots that should be headed to the Pro Bowl this season.
