That's a freakin joke. In his 2nd season in the league Barber had 101 tackles and returned an INT 70 yards for a TD. He got injured in 2000 and then blew out his knee in 2001. He had 92 tackles and returned an INT 80 yards for a TD in Philly in 2002.
He was regarded by most as one of the top 2 or 3 linebackers available when the Chiefs signed him. He managed 112 tackles in GREG ROBINSON'S defense.
Once again, the "what have you done for me lately" mentality causes people to repaint history.
