If you can dodge a wrench, you can dodge a football?
Okay, so there were no footballs involved. But the AFC and NFC went toe-to-toe in one of the more intense dodgeball games you’ll probably ever watch. Honestly, what could possibly be better than watching a bunch of massive dudes trying to destroy each other with Nerf balls?
The rules were simple; best two out of three wins. The AFC got off to a quick start out of the gate with Indianapolis Colts quarterback Andrew Luck leading the way. Giants running back Saquon Barkley found himself on his own for the NFC and was eliminated after making some impressive dodges. The NFC showed tremendous grit though, and closed out the second game with a 49ers tight end George Kittle toss on Jets safety Jamaal Adams. So, it alllllll came down to the final game… which the NFC ended up dominating.
The comeback kids!
You’d think that having the balls would work to a team’s advantage but if you really watched closely you probably noticed that a lot of players were eliminated on catches. Guess that’s what happens when a game consists of a bunch of wide receivers!
This game was pretty wild, however, last year's still takes the cake. It all came down to Browns wide receiver Jarvis Landry against Carolina panthers kicker Graham Gano, with the former coming out on top.
Receiver vs. kicker? That’s a no-brainer.
The Pro Bowl will take place on Sunday afternoon and we hope it’s as entertaining as what the players put on in this intense dodgeball game.
