The NFL released an update on the 2012 Pro Bowl votes, which will conclude on Monday, December 19 following the conclusion of Monday Night Football between the Pittsburgh Steelers and San Francisco 49ers). teams will be announced Tuesday, December 27 on the channel most of America still doesn't have (NFL Network).
One issue that stood out isn't just Cincinnati's absense leading a vote at any particular position, it's that the one particular position that we'd have issue with right now is occupied by Baltimore's right tackle Michael Oher, who according to Pro Football Focus, has allowed three quarterback sacks, three quarterback hits and 24 quarterback pressures. Comparatively speaking Andrew Whitworth has allowed only one sack, two quarterback hits and nine pressures.
Here are the results so far:
