LOL Cmon, this is goes without question. Willis > Warner no matter how you want to look at it.
I love Warner, but he's not Willis. He's not even a Bowman in his prime, but still a very good LB.
But Willis was special. Forever my favorite player.

But if you compare both Warner's and Willis's first and second years, Warner is well on his way of matching and maybe even exceeding Willis's career.

Willis was a DPOY candidate in his first year
If we wanna talk about a MLB that can match Wilis´career, the guy would be Darius Leonard.

This is the craziest post I've ever read from a guy with 50,000 posts.
Willis had 174 tackles his rookie year. 4 sacks 8 tfl 5 pd. For the #20 defense in points and #25 in yards.

86 is close to 174? Zero is close to four? Your taking crazy pills.

WILLIS was already PRIMED when he got into the league.. Warner was raw but has been quick to learn.. how long did Willis play in the NFL, 7 years? I say lets' all wait where Warner is in the 5th year then lets compare.

Pat Willis was a legendary stud who wrote the text book on tackling form.
Fred Warner is a glorified safety who is a product of the league's pass happy rule changes. Scares no one. Our line backers are built to cover line to line, not plug gaps take on blockers or punish ball carriers. Hence why our run d is questionable.
Do NOT compare pencil neck geeks to an all time badass.
