There's a reason Bowman posted more tackles.
Much respect to #52 but I think #53 gets disrespected not being recognized as the best LB in the league.
Just noticed this is post 53

Yes, there IS a reason Bowman posted more tackles and it's because Willis has much more talent around him
now and doesn't have to do EVERYTHING on the D. That's why you see him cover tightends a lot more now than before. I remember someone posted up a link where Willis explains that he doesn't "have to take as many chances now" on D because he is able to rely on the other players around him.
Don't get me wrong Bowman is a straight up beast but "there is a reason" Patrick Willis is still labeled as being the best MLB in the game.

All this stuff here about Bowman and Willis. I love how eager people are to shove Willis aside for someone else. Bowman is great but Willis is Willis.

So Willis has more talent than the guy playing right next to him? interesting...now don't get me wrong, they are both going to be HOF players

Love Bowman, but Willis is the better player. Willis has better range and is more of a sure tackler. I've seen Bowman miss a lot more tackles than I have seen Willis miss.

They're both special. I think Willis is the most physically gifted, but Bowman's instincts are off the chart.
