Default Bla, Bla, Bla, Bruschi

Now that I have your attention, I just wanted to divert some time away from the game talk and see who your favorite all time Bronco linebacker is. My vote is obvious but there have been and are some great ones, all this talk of Bruschi is making me wonder who our best is or was. Mecklenburg all the way

Hard to look past Wilson in my era of being a fan.

I don't remember Gradishar... Meck was a total beast and VERY fun to watch. Al Wilson is very good but I'd have to go with Meck! I also have a soft spot for John Mobley!

I arrived in the US back in 1976 to attend Highschool and College in state of Colorado.

I landed smack in the middle of the Orange Crush era and was introduced to the game of Football, watching Randy Gradishar & Co. stomping on any player unlucky enough in having a football in their hands

Since ive only been a fan since 95, only 8 then.

I gotta go with Al Wilson.

But watching highlights Gradisher is still the all time Bronco LB.

I think Meck was the most talented we've had, but I have to go with Fletcher. He wasn't the biggest or fastest.. but he sure seemed to be around the ball 100% of the time.
