Fans will have to wait one more week for Super Bowl 51, but there is one game today for those looking to watch football. The NFL Pro Bowl kicks off at 8 p.m. Eastern on ESPN.

The Pro Bowl features the best NFL players in the AFC take on the best players of the NFC. The game will not feature any players from the New England Patriots or Atlanta Falcons as both teams prepare for next week’s Super Bowl.

After experimenting with a fantasy draft with the likes of Michael Irvin and Jerry Rice, the NFL has gone back to its traditional format of separating the teams based on conferences. While the NFL’s version of the All-Star game is merely an exhibition, it does mark the final game before Super Bowl LI.

The game features a number of the league’s best players including Ben Roethlisberger, Dez Bryant, Larry Fitzgerald, Jimmy Graham and Drew Brees. Typically the game features a lot of offense and not many hard-hitting tackles as players look to avoid injury heading into the offseason.

It is still a fun event for the fans to see their favorite players one last time before a long off-season. This year’s game is in Orlando rather than Hawaii.

Super Bowl 51 takes place on Sunday, February 5 at 6:30 p.m. on FOX. The Patriots will take on the Falcons in Houston to decide who will be hoisting the Lombardi Trophy. New England is looking to win their second straight Super Bowl while the Falcons made their first Super Bowl since 1999.

There will be no shortage of offense in the game with both teams featuring high-powered passing attacks.
