They don't play as AFC vs. NFC, but the players are still selected so that the two conferences are even.

Actually, you're right. I stand corrected.

Sure he does. He's stating that "he sucks". Simple as that.

He didn't understand that until you told him.

From what I can tell, there are 3 starters and 3 alternates per conference, so here's Alex's competition, sorted by quarterback rating this season:

Tom Brady - Starter
Andrew Luck
Marcus Mariota - Alternate
Derek Carr - Starter
Ben Roethlisberger - Starter
Ryan Tannehill
Andy Dalton
(Alex Smith) - Alternate
Philip Rivers - Alternate
Trevor Siemian
Tyrod Taylor
Joe Flacco
Blake Bortles
Brock Osweiler
Ryan Fitzpatrick

So to me, the fact that Alex made it in as an alternate is less of an issue than Luck not making it in at all. You'll have trouble convincing me that Tannehill or Dalton are definitively better than Alex this season.

When it comes down to it, the "issue" here is just that there are only 32 QB's in the league, and 12 of them make the Pro Bowl as a starter or alternate. That's a much higher percentage than most other positions.

Man. Sucks to be 20-4 with an imminent playoff berth.

Carr and Smith have played some of the hardest schedules this season but look who's ahead of who....
