My dad used to laugh at me when I asked him if Urlacher was better than Butkus.

Urlacher was the better talent. He could do more than Lewis on a football field with his blend of size and athleticism. He had a tough gig as the middle man in Lovie's Tampa 2 where he was asked to cover a lot of ground for a LB.
Lewis was a better leader off the field. His "rah rah" style worked in Baltimore and guys bought into his style of leadership.

So once again, Lewis gets the nod.

I think an argument could be made that if Lovie stayed, he would stump for Emery to try harder to get a new deal done to keep Urlacher. the team was in kind of a jettison mode to erase Lovie Smith, Urlacher being a UFA made it easier to let him go. the two sides couldn't agree, so Urlacher went FA and he chose to retire instead. I don't know if I agree that he had a lot of time left, he had back problems and that one knee took a lot of abuse the last couple seasons.
I never really followed Ray Lewis, he could've had 8000 tackles or 2000, I wouldn't know the difference. he was impressive to watch though. all arguments that Lewis was better than Urlacher, statistically, should stand. it doesn't take away that Urlacher was a great player for us to watch, he's just like a tier below. and honestly, if you look through this whole thread, with all the arguments against him, I don't really see how any of you could think Urlacher's a first ballot HOF.
and besides, if mick says it, it's true.

So Urlacher could have went somewhere else, but chose to retire. That's on him.

Ray Lewis won the two Superbowls with an offense that was lead by Trent Dilfer and Joe Flacco (even though Joe played out of his mind in the playoffs).
Both of those teams won because of that dominate defense that featured Ray Lewis.

Some would argue having your best player out there with 5 minutes left in a meaningless game as you wallowed at 7-8 resulting in a major knee injury was an asinine move, costing him production and years.. But then again, Lovie once claimed winning the last game of the season meant you went into the next 1-0 so there is that.

Sorry man, I should have said the backwoods of Texas. I've lived in Houston for 4 years prior to the influx of refugees from Louisiana, so it was nice then. Also love San Antonio. My apologies to the non rednecks from Texas.
