Ray Lewis or Luke Kuechly

Taylor?

just talking LBs in general, since Luke also played on the inside and in 3-4, (though I thought this was incredibly stupid)…Taylor also played some (albeit very limited) middle

but yea generally the best played middle and also in a 4-3 (obviously)

Luke's game IQ puts him ahead Lewis. To me Luke is up there with Mike Singletary.

That's top of the top.

wait what? I don't think IQ was one of ray's weaknesses either> Ray might be the most feared linebacker in history. As great as he was and I do think he was superior to Ray in coverage that might be about it. Ray a much more devastating hitter. i give him the edge there.

You are a recent UNC fan????

I was too young to watch Taylor but I’ve watched everything I could find online of him back when I played for texas state (also a OLB)

funny thing - I think his first contract was like 6 years for 6 million dollars back then lol

how things have changed

43 vs 34 LBs

Ray was incredible against the run, physically intimidating and HOFer.

Luke was good against run and great overall.

2 systems, both excelling.  If Luke had made it 3 more years in the league, he would get the nod.

I would say the best people to ask would be the quarterbacks that played against both.  I think they are both great.  I loved watching the chess game between Luke and opposing quarterbacks.  They would line up Luke would diagnose, they would audible,  rinse and repeat.  I did not get to see Ray play as often, but he was a huge impact player and right up there in the greatest of all time.  I think the time Luke spent in the league puts him right in that conversation as well.
