NFL Pro Bowl 2023 featured the best players from both the AFC and the NFC Conferences as they came together to take part in the reimagined games. The centerpiece of the whole event was the flag football game between the two conferences, coached by Peyton Manning and Eli Manning. Peyton took charge of the AFC, whereas Eli Manning was in charge of the NFC.
The game itself was divided into three parts, with each of the first two contributing six points to the team's total. The skills challenges were valued at three points each. Before the final part of the game, the total points were added up, and that became the starting score for the final game.
The AFC went into the final game leading the NFC 21-15. But some clever play from Eli Manning and his team saw them eventually win the game 35-33.
NFL Pro Bowl 2023: Individual event scores
The NFL Pro Bowl 2023 had events taking place on both Thursday and Sunday. Thursday featured four skills challenges worth three points each. The AFC won three of them, meaning that they came into the weekend leading 9-3.
That six-point gap would remain throughout Sunday going into the final game. The NFC and AFC won two skills challenges apiece, of the four in total over the weekend as well. That in itself was not enough to claw back the deficit. With six points for both conferences, the final score based on skills challenges was 15-9 in favor of the AFC.
The first two flag football games, worth six points each, finished level as well. The first game was won by the NFC, but the AFC won the second. The scores for the games were given in the order that they were played. Each netted the conference six points, meaning entering the final game, the scores were 21-15 in favor of the AFC.

That led to a final score of 35-33 in favor of the NFC, who were crowned the NFL Pro Bowl 2023 champions.
