Collier: Steelers' Timmons easy to notice

[Galax Steeler]

Spent 25 minutes in the Steelers locker room Wednesday looking for Lawrence Timmons, which usually would be sufficiently irritating except there was something even more irritating about it -- he was probably there all the time.

From the moment the Steelers drafted Lawrence Timmons, his style of play has always been described in one word: Explosive.

He’s an inside linebacker blessed with a rare blend of speed, power and tenacity.
“L.T. goes from zero to 60 in a heartbeat,” said cornerback Bryant McFadden. “And when he gets there, he’s in a bad mood.” ................

The great Steelers Linebacker tradition continues!

"Work hard, stay humble," he said when cornered. "It's just the way I go about it."

That's the perfect attitude to have. Love that he's a Steeler!

Timmons made 11 tackles in the opener against Atlanta, seven of them by himself, three of them in the Falcons' backfield, all of those at the painful expense of a flattened Michael Turner....

They gave Atlanta fewer than 300 yards, fewer than 60 on the ground, and no touchdowns. When the Falcons finally got a sniff of the end zone, with a first-and-10 at the Steelers' 14 in the fourth quarter, Timmons planted Turner 3 yards deep in the backfield and that possession unraveled into three points.

Our smothering defensive play was reminiscent to that of the 2008 Super Bowl Champions....and Timmons was still in diapers...

He's a great kid with a great attitude and he leads with his play on the field, not with his mouth.
