2024 Pro Bowl Games Winners-Losers
The NFC emerged victorious in the Pro Bowl Games for the second consecutive year, securing the overall competition with a 64-59 win. The NFC’s success was bolstered by a dominant performance in skills competitions and a late scoring surge in the flag football game during the second half.
Despite the AFC winning the flag football game with a score of 50-34, the NFC outscored them 19-6 in the final quarter and a half.
The NFC players received a $80,000 bonus each, double the amount earned by their AFC counterparts. The multi-day event took place in Orlando, Florida, with the flag football game and some final events held at Camping World Stadium on Sunday.
The highlight of the flag football game involved NFC starting quarterback Jalen Hurts (Eagles) and Cowboys receiver CeeDee Lamb. Hurts threw a quick pass to Lamb, who, while evading an AFC cornerback, attempted to connect with Hurts on a well-executed wheel route.
Despite a mistimed jump by Hurts resulting in a missed catch, the players, along with NFC coach Eli Manning and others on the field, shared a laugh, creating an enjoyable moment during the broadcast.
Regardless of opinions on the format, it is evident that the players relished the experience, finding joy even in the various events. The Pro Bowl showcased a mix of competitive spirit and camaraderie among the NFL’s top talents.
