Youre the GM

And Tulloch does the job of 2 men (Bowman/Willis). Very comparable.

You're out of your mind. It's not even worth arguing if you think Tulloch is as good as Willis or Bowman.

Tulloch was very good in coverage and was a tackling machine. PFF ranked him 4th. Bowman and Willis were one and two. Very comparable seeing how Tulloch does it himself.

Saying Tulloch does the job of both Willis and Bowman is like comparing apples and oranges. They play in completely different defenses. And you just proved my point. PFF has Bowman and Willis #1 and #2.

It's worse than that. It's like comparing a Jaguar sports car to a Yugo. I like Tulloch but no way is he even close to Bowman and/or Willis.

And Tulloch 4. Very close 4. Same players but Tulloch does twice the work at ILB.

Or CJ to Durham.

No he doesn't. He has Suh and Fairley in front of him to help close the holes and make tackles too. Bowman and Willis have Dorsey.

Tulloch has more ground to cover and has to shed just as many blocks.

It's like comparing Miggy to Andy Dirks.

For as much as you say you watch football, you're absolutely clueless.

I know more than anyone on here. Tulloch has more ground to cover is a fact. He's constantly shedding blocks and getting through just as much of traffic. One ILB in a 3-4 is usually just as "free" as Tulloch since there are 2 ILBs.

 

[Mitchrapp]

It's like comparing a plum to a prune ..

Prune, yuk.

4-3 MLB is a tougher position to play than 3-4 ILB. Which is why Steelers and Pats always can plug and play any veteran.

It's like comparing the city of San Francisco to Detroit.

I'm not arguing that. All I'm trying to remind you is that Willis and Bowman are 2 of the elite linebackers in the NFL and I would always take them over Tulloch, even though I like Tulloch as a player and what he's done for the Lions since he got to Detroit.

Tullloch is a very good underrated player. Bowand and Willis are good and get the accolades, but so is Tulloch at a harder position and deservers way more accolades and respect.

But the question is, would you rather have willis or tulloch on a team if you got to pick?
