Because this is a serious discussion, and ****rell Bell isn't even worthy of being in the discussion!

I voted for DT as well since I never got to see Bell or Lanier. I would like to does it make any difference with a coverage LB vs. a pure pass rushing LB? Just curious as to who would you prefer? :hmmm:

That's the reason why I created this poll in order for the people who voted, to explain out their reasonsings for their vote, so on, so on, so on.

What?? NO BOOMER GRIGSBY OPTION??? Epic fail...

I put down Bobby Bell, but to be honest, it may be Willie Lanier, they were both awesome lbers.

I know DT was listed as a LB, and that was his official position, but he was more of DE to me.
He is by a wide margin, the best pass rusher, and game changer, the Chiefs have ever had, IMO.

BB all day, every day.

I went with Willie Lanier. He made plays all over the field and was a complete linebacker. Very sure tackler and strong pass defender. Think of Donnie Edwards with a violent streak and the ability to drop a ball carrier in his tracks. I don't remember Bobby Bell as well, so I might have gone with him had I seen more.

best linebackers
 

Where's the love for Maslowski? What about Demario?

The "hot wife of a linebacker" category definitely goes to Beisel:D

This post is worthless without...

This ! John Lynch was a very good MLB in college, he never saw MLB again, except for practice as a backup or fill in for Lanier being injured, which if I recall right was for only 2 games.

Bell 2nd .

Loved DT, but he was a DE more than a LB. His overall coverage was average.

I voted DT, mostly not seeing all of the others play as much as I've seen DT play. He changed the probable outcome of a team game by himself. He did everthing he was asked to do, rush was what he was asked of the most, but he tackled runners for losses, intercepted passes, etc.
