Final Pro Bowl fan balloting: Offense
Pro Bowl watch: Fan voting, offense
49ers running back Frank Gore moved past DeAngelo Williams into second place among NFC running backs in final fan balloting for the Pro Bowl.
The chart shows final balloting for all NFC players on offense. Coaches and players vote this week. Teams are announced Dec. 29.
Gore's surge in balloting might reflect a recent surge on the field. He had 167 yards against Arizona on "Monday Night Football" before ending the Eagles' 23-game streak of not allowing a 100-yard rusher.
If the Vikings' Adrian Peterson and the Rams' Steven Jackson earn two NFC berths at running back, where might that leave Gore? Williams and Ryan Grant have more yards.
