The post on Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker Lawrence Timmons by Jeremy Hritz from earlier this morning warrants an even deeper look at the drop-off the former first round draft pick had last season. Timmons finished tied for 50th in the league in 2011 with 93 combined tackles after finishing 8th in 2010 with 135. The o...bvious reason that his tackle numbers dropped off last year was because of the injury to outside linebacker James Harrison, as Hritz noted in his post. When Harrison went down it forced Timmons into his spot at outside linebacker, where he obviously was not a fit and very uncomfortable.

Move Ben to HB or WR and see how he fares.

Timmons will be fine.

What a bust. We should get rid of him because we can't afford him.

I wish timmons had the know how to call all the plays. I just feel like we are sacrificing athleticism with foote on the field. And I know its early to even say this but if sean Spence is as good as he performed in Miami it be great to see him and timmons in the middle. Again it would fall back on timmons being able to operate the defense.
