ORLANDO, Fla. – Many of the best players in the NFL have spent the entire week in Orlando preparing for the 2020 NFL Pro Bowl. The NFC will look to snap their three-game losing streak in the Pro Bowl while also trying to put up more than the seven points they scored in last year's game.
The annual event is a fan favorite as it allows them access to some of the biggest stars in the NFL. The Pro Bowl has provided some memorable moments and that expectation carries into this year as the NFL tries to find ways to make this game more competitive and fun for the players without risking injury.
This year the NFC will be coached by the Seattle Seahawks coaching staff led by Pete Carroll and the AFC will be led by Baltimore Ravens coach John Harbaugh. Both coaches have won a Super Bowl in their coaching careers and saw their teams eliminated in the Divisional Round of the playoffs this season.
Various U.S. online sportsbooks have the AFC as narrow 1.5-point favorites to win their fourth straight Pro Bowl. The first half spread in this game also favors the AFC with a -0.5-point spread.
A win for the AFC would give the Conference a 25-22 record against the NFC. The AFC will start assumed NFL MVP Lamar Jackson at the quarterback position and he’ll be backed up by Houston Texans signal-caller Deshaun Watson.
