Is Urlacher the Most Over Rated Player in the NFL?

Just curious. Saw a highlight on Sports Center where Brady juked Urlacher out of his shoes. I combine this with the divisional playoff game against the SeaChickens and the Super Bowl against the Colts. I kinda feel like the SeaChickens owned Urlacher and there is no doubt that he was totally ineffective against the Colts.

yes, he imo is an above average MLB. Awesome physical skills, poor awareness and would be better suited probably to an OLB role. Discuss.

I don't agree with this. Can you elaborate with some examples? Thanks.

Shaun Alexander is a better choice

Urlacher is like a 98 in Madden and we all know Madden is always right

Urlacher may be overrated in the sense that he does not deserve to be compared to Dick Butkus and Mike Singletary.

He may be overrated in the sense that he is not clearly, 100%, the best LB in the league.

But he is definitely one of the 2 or 3 best LBs in the NFL.

I think he played OLB when he came into the league and by his own admission stunk. I agree that he is overrated, but there are still few linebackers I would rather have on my team.
