He's definitely no slouch. The thing is that people know him as the QB of that D but in reality that is Mike Brown. He's the leader of that D, he just doesn't get the pub that Urlacher gets. Urlacher's biggest problem is he can't get off a block, before this year when they drafted/acquired two stud D-linemen and after they traded away their interior line follwing the 2001-2002 13-3 year, he stunk and people wanted to get rid of him because he couldn't make a play on his own. I have nothing against him I just tink there are alot of misconceptions about what he does on that D.
