Just a topic that I've been thinking about recently. We here all the time hearing about "off-ball" linebackers and how great they are/were in coverage. And thats great, especially in this new era of football, you need to be able to do that to make it at a high level. But, what about the guys that come downhill, stack and shed off their blocks with violent hands, and stick their noses in their gaps?
So, I wanted to see if y'all could put together a top 5 of linebackers with these qualities. And if you can't think of 5, that's fine..... just name off who you can remember.
So, let's get started. For me, it goes.....
1). Ray Lewis.
2). Patrick Willis.
3). Reuben Foster(I'm biased, but watch the film damnit!!!)
4). Derrick brooks.
5). Paul Posluszny.
