Re: Brian Urlacher announces retirement

In this case, "Retirement" is just a nice way of saying, nobody wanted him.

Re: Brian Urlacher announces retirement

I've got a good question for everyone.


Is Brian Urlacher a Hall of Famer?

Papz, That is a very good question. I really don't know. He was a great player. Hall of Famer ?

Warner yes. Ronde no. Urlacher maybe but probably not.

Sad to see him retire even thou it was time for it. He is one of my all-time favourite players.

When/If he gets into the HoF; I think we will be too old to give a crap.

But no, I don't think he's a HoFer. Great LB and was a force to be feared on the field. I still like the "pointing" of Reggie to him in the NFCCG.

I agree with Warner. I actually think Ronde has an outside chance... who was considered one of the premier cover 2 corners for a while. I think his longevity will play a part in it also. While Urlacher was a pleasure to watch and a great player, I just don't think he gets in. If he didn't lose that '09 season and was able to finish the '04 season, I do think he would make it. He just needed another couple of years under his belt.
