There is no way getting around the fact that I have a bias towards Ray Lewis. This is a Ravens blog run by Ravens fans and that’s something we never shied away from. I would say though that I have a few non-Ravens jerseys, and Brian Urlacher’s jersey is one of them. I grew up watching both of these linebackers, and being incredible fans of both players. That puts me in an interesting position going into this debate. Who was the better linebacker?
The easy cop-out answer would be that they were both great, but incredibly different players.
