Orchard Park, N.Y. — Buffalo Bills quarterback Tyrod Taylor ended up in the Pro Bowl, in part, because of his ability to take care of the football throughout the 2015 season. When he played in the game, however, Taylor showed off a more reckless side.

Taylor, who made the Pro Bowl as an alternate after five of the six quarterbacks voted to the game decided not to go, threw three interceptions on 14 passes while playing for Jerry Rice's team. Taylor's three interceptions were half of his total interception count from the 2015 season. He finished the game 8-for-14 passing for 120 yards, one touchdown, three interceptions and 15 yards rushing. The touchdown was a thing of beauty.

Pro Bowl stats mean little in the grand scheme of things. The players aren't playing at full speed, and without anything on the line, it's more of a care-free game. It's not much more than a glorified game of two-hand touch. Taylor wasn't the only one turning the ball over. Team Rice's quarterbacks threw a total of six interceptions, and the Pro Bowl featured a total of nine turnovers.

In the end, Team Irvin, coached by former Cowboys great Michael Irvin, beat Team Rice, which had Taylor and his Bills teammates Eric Wood and Richie Incognito, by a final score of 49-27.

Players on Team Irvin each received a bonus check of $58,000, while the members of Team Irvin went home from Hawaii with $29,000 each.
