Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers predicts the Chicago Bears will miss Brian Urlacher, both on and off the field.

“It’s kind of like us with losing (Charles) Woodson,” Rodgers said. “It’s tough to lose a guy of that leadership ability. Playmaking aside, I think both guys can still play at a high level. They are guys who bring more than just their on-the-field ability. They bring so much more to a locker room and a defense. That veteran presence, that leadership, that track record they have, the experience. When they get up in a meeting and talk, everybody is quiet. They’re definitely going to miss his presence and his ability and his leadership.”

Rodgers spoke of a “mutual respect” between he and Urlacher.

“I always appreciated the approach he takes to the game,” Rodgers said. “Against the Bears you never had to worry about cheap shots around the pile or after the whistle. They played the right way and it was led by Brian.”

Asked what stood out most about Urlacher, Rodgers said, "His competitiveness. How much he loved to play the game and compete. I’ll never forget some of the battles we had. I always appreciated his ability to enjoy the game while being competitive. He plays the game with a lot of class and professionalism. He does it the right way."

Eagles quarterback Michael Vick felt similarly.

"What has stood out most about Brian is his passion and love for the game, his ability to show leadership," Vick said. "So many times in his career, he put a team on his back
