Why is Okung a Pro Bowler? Seahawks have faced 10 players with 10-plus sacks, including Aldon Smith twice, allowing just 5 sacks to those 10

That is one hell of a stat. :th2thumbs:

Okung only gave up 1 sack this season.

Outstanding... totally erased top pass rushers this year. Got the recognition he deserves. And once you get in the Pro Bowl as an offensive lineman, you tend to stay there. Just ask 2008 Walter Jones, Pro Bowler.

Thats awesome. That means that a ton of coaches and players voted for him, because he got pretty much nil on the fan vote.

I was pretty nervous after that first Arizona game, but he really elevated his game after that and has been fantastic ever since. Well deserved.

I agree Clink, he actually looked bad to start the season but about game three or four he turned it on and hasn't turned it off since.

Great to see him get recognized.
