The NFL opened its Pro Bowl voting today and it's likely that a lot of the more famous Eagles are going to get votes. Michael Vick will certainly get a lot, DeSean Jackson, Asante Samuel (deserving or not) etc will get votes. But the guy who maybe deserves them more than anyone isn't a lock. So we should be doing whatever we can to get him to Hawaii.
McCoy has 8 total TDs on the year, he's third in the NFC in yards per game and fourth in total rushing yards (although he has played one less game than the top 3). He is tied with Matt Forte for the highest yards per carry (5.4) among starting RBs in the NFC. Funny enough, Michael Vick leads in the NFL in yards per carry at 8.3. He's on pace to rush for over 1,517 yards this season, which would just eclipse the Eagles all time single season record of 1,512 set by Wilbert Montgomery in 1979.
So clearly, he's got the numbers to be there. We just need to make sure he's got the votes. So go to NFL.com/ProBowl and get voting!
