If you had the intestinal fortitude to watch the Steelers AFC championship victory yesterday, then you know that Pro Bowl Center Maurkice Pouncey messed up his ankle. With some game in Dallas looming in a fortnight, Maurkice withdrew his name from next weekend's Pro Bowl. Thus, a replacement was needed. I bet you can guess... Ok, maybe not. It's Alex Mack, the much embattled former first round pick that the Browns famously traded down twice to select. It must be true that if you don't notice the center then he's doing his job well. We never hear Mack's name (penalties, allowing sacks, etc) and the NFL, at least, has recognized his performance. Mack joins 4 time incumbent tackle, Joe Thomas. Despite the glaring holes on the Browns' roster, having two Pro Bowl OLs seems like a nice place to start.
