Yeah. Urlacher was a good player, and a Pro Bowl caliber LB for several years, but the hype given to him by ESPN and others made the general public think he was the heir of Dick Butkus or the equivalent of Ray Lewis, and that was just preposterous.
He was as probably as good of a MLB as Neil Smith was a DE.
