So leave out truth and facts? Got it.

Shazier has been a 2 time pro bowler already and has never even sniffed an injury. Definitely don't need depth at ILB. Timmons will play another 10 years as well.

Shazier is injury prone and Timmons is up in age and even had his snaps start to be limited last year with the team bringing in Golden.

Billings is gone now anyway. Sounds like he dropped solely because he is only viewed as a 2 down player.

Is there another Golden on the roster im not aware of or am I supposed to believe Timmons somehow played less because of Robert Golden...

Irregardless, id take Scooby now but he's just going to get swooped up

Timmons did play less because of Golden. Timmons is no longer capable of covering TE's and RB's that well so the Steelers removed him on passing downs to bring in another DB which was Robert Golden.

Im still struggling to see if you're being serious. Timmons played 95.3% of our teams defensive snaps: http://www.sportingcharts.com/nfl/st...nt-stats/2015/

Irregardless, looks like you may have gotten your wish with the 2 LB's we drafted

I am totally serious. Here is the snap count for defensive snaps and the percentage of snaps played. As you can see later in the year the Steelers realized Timmons was a liability on passing downs and they started bringing in an extra DB. I believe they talked about it a few times on SteelersDepot as well but I am not sure if there was a specific article.
