HONOLULU (AP) – Coach Mike Smith says it shouldn’t be too difficult to draw up plays for the NFC stars in the Pro Bowl this Sunday.
The Atlanta Falcons coach says the biggest challenge is many of the Pro Bowlers haven’t played special teams.
The game has returned to its island home in Hawaii. Despite player complaints, the NFL moved the all-star game to Miami last year before the Super Bowl in an experiment to draw more attention and viewers.
Ratings were up. The NFL is again keeping the Pro Bowl ahead of the Super Bowl.
The change means the Pro Bowl will have no Pittsburgh Steelers or Green Bay Packers on the field or the sidelines. They are getting ready for the Super Bowl in Arlington, Texas, on Feb. 6.
