The NFL Pro Bowl Skills Competition will take place on Thursday at the ESPN Wide World of Sports facility in Orlando, FL. Players from the NFC and the AFC will compete in five different contests. Whichever conference wins the most contests wins the competition. Here are the five contests.
1. Thread the Needle. This contest has been added this year. The defensive back will attempt to thwart the quarterback from hitting targets with passes.
2. Gridiron Gauntlet. The obstacle course is back.
3. Best Hands. In this relay race, wide receivers have to make different kinds of catches at various targets around the field.
4. Precision Passing. Throwers will have to hit as many moving targets as possible in one minute.
5. Epic Pro Bowl Dodgeball. The competition saved the best contest for last with dodgeball. I will be watching to see who will be hit in the face.

Sometimes I watch part of the pro-bowl game.
Yeah, I usually watch some of the game because there are usually a few guys that always play this game all-out instead of like an all-star game. I’m glad that the NHL moved the hockey all-star game to Saturday so that I don’t have to flip back and forth now.
That was smart, to change the hockey game day.
do you remember the old superstar’s competition?
where the athletes had to compete in other sports?
I remember Walter Payton standing under a basketball, jumping up without running and dunking.
Superstars used to be the absolute best. I remember that Herschel Walker did the entire obstacle course in less than 30 seconds.
i watched that! Herschel Walker was an amazing athlete. I always wondered why his pro career never really took off.
All of his good years were played in the USFL and with the Cowboys when they were only winning four games a year. When he was traded to Minnesota, he went to a team that always looked to pass all of the time.
the reality of his career, you can bowl over the kids that are 19 at Tennessee. You can’t bowl over the men in the NFL.
we see it all the time with backs.
Beautiful boost. Thanks for sharing
You are welcome. Do you live in Pakistan? That country is an obstacle course.
