I've already said that Willis is better. But Tatupu is still the best, TO ME.

Tatupu is your favorite, not the best.. not even TO YOU. If you come out and say another LB is BETTER, then Tatupu is obviously not the best TO YOU. He's just your FAVORITE. My favorite team is the San Francisco 49ers, but I'm not gonna come on here and say "Everyone has their own opinions and the Niners being the best is mine." I know they're not the best, not even TO ME. They are my favorite, they are not THE BEST.

Also, I'd like to point out, that Willis was a 1st round draft pick, at #11, which means that Willis obviously had enough talent to be drafted so high and he lived up to his expectations. Whereas Tatupu, drafted 2nd round at #45 and EVERYONE outside the Seahawks community doubtd that draft and thought that Tim Ruskell made a mistake drafting him. But Tatupu ended up turning heads and made everyone eat their words. He deserves more credit than what he is getting now.

You may feel he deserves more credit than he is getting, but that stuff certainly does not factor into whether he is better than another linebacker or not.

In other words, just because he was doubted and he proved people wrong doesn't make him a better linebacker than he truly is. You might like him more because of it, but it doesn't make his play any better.

I know he's not the best linebacker in the league right now, but he certainly is up there with the best.

He's one of the better linebackers in the league, but I wouldn't even put him in the top 5 MLBs and if you want to include all linebackers then he's not even in the top 10 or 15.

Alright, I'm going to end this argument right now. Willis is better than Tatupu. Willis is on your team and is really talented and is a real good ILB. Tatupu is on my team and is a good MLB. They're both good LB's. But as you and everyone else says is the best LB. But I think Tatupu is going to put up some good numbers this season. As well as Willis. Both Willis and Tatupu are badass LB's, and we should be so lucky to have them, considering the NFC West gets no love from the nation.

^Yeah man that was a badass interception/return for a td by Willis. But what about four sacks and three interceptions, returning one for a touchdown in Seattle's 42-0 Monday Night Football victory against the Philadelphia Eagles
