Who Has Better Lb's Miami Or Baltimore?

A redskin fan on a Miami board? Now I've seen everything. :)

I agree, where would you say Baltimore, and Miami goes in the ranking. Baltimore has a better lb group than Miami though.

I would have to agree here. These 2 units have been dominate that last 2 years.

If they are healthy, I think the Chiefs take it easily. If not the Chiefs, then I'd say Rams, Patrioits or Bills (sorry guys).

The Chiefs? Seriously :confused:
 
Steelers and Ravens have the best corps. but the Ravens have lost Hartwell and Boulware, so there's no saying what's going on there.

The Bills do.

Posey is solid.

Spikes is an All-pro player and FLetcher has been an alternate for the probowl the last few years. He should have made it by now.

There was a ranking on one of those site, Sportsline, foxsports, or SI that ranked the Linebacker units in the NFL. Bills were #1 and Steelers were #2. Dont remember the rest.

Fletcher is good and Spikes is great. Posey is one of the worst starting linebackers in the league. You won't know he was still on the team if you didn't know the roster.

That was kind of my thought of the Bills' core. That being said they are definitely top 5. I find it very difficult to rank LB's as pure LB core. A LOT goes into how well they play. Do the DL keep olineman off of them? Do they have to play a lot of coverage? ETC... I say you get a top 5, top 10 ranking and just leave it at that. Trying to distinguish one unit from another is hard to do. If you do try to do that, think of it this way... how would one teams core say the Bills, do on the Ravens team? I think they would do really well, bc the Ravens secondary is amazing and they would only have to worry about the run.
 
Probably the Steelers and the strength of the Raven linebacker core has been reduced.

IMO, fletcher is more than just good. hes the backbone of our D. (but cant defend the pass to save his LIFE!!!)

spikes is GREAT, and it was a GREAT move to pick him up. :D

now to Posey.. he was braught in for his pass rushing ability. he played very well for the texans in their 3-4 D. but when he came to buffalo, he doenst blitz that often. (coaching decision), i guess cus spikes gets most of the blitzes. so posey hasnt had the chance to showo that pass rush ability. though some may say that a good pass rushing LB in the 3-4 is not as good in the 4-3. but he doesnt make many mistakes. good enough is a good term for him.
