no, to the contrary. I'm not saying he's Scottie Pippen.
I'm saying "if you use your own goddamn eyeballs and brain" you'll clearly see that he plays multiple positions. I know, it's because he sucks sucks sucks sucks sucks sucks at every position he could ever play. For ****'s sake, he even came out of the birth canal sideways. He's clearly the most awful linebacker to ever consider lacing up his shoes and throwing on pads to play the game. I, for one, am shocked and amazed that he's not been given his walking papers and told to carry on his life's work making sandcastles on a beach in Montana. As I'm sure you are too, considering how deep your hate is for him. I mean, the guy's just the only defensive player on the field we can count on more often than not. Certainly Spence or Williams can replace him ... EASILY. You know, since he sucks sucks sucks sucks sucks. All those missed tackles. All those times he's clearly pushed around by 3rd grade girl scout troops. All his off-field issues and arrests. All of that makes him the most hated man on the field every day for you.
Yeah, it's just me.

"Time and time again, he overran plays and took himself out of position to make a tackle. That was less of a concern last week against the Baltimore Ravens, but he did miss several tackles."
"But his performance in coverage, or more specifically tackling the catch, left much to be desired as he flailed past receiver after receiver.

"The Steelers may actually get more impact plays from Timmons at OLB, where his burst makes him a natural pass rusher, and avoid some of the negative plays that happen when Timmons gets caught out of position playing ILB."
(LOL. Yeah, we got some DYNAMITE snaps from the guy at OLB.)

"The problem is, as I've written previously, the new defensive signal caller hasn't been living up to his role often enough during the course of the first two games of the season."
"Timmons was clearly getting gassed by the Ravens' no-huddle attack."

"The Pittsburgh Steelers are counting on inside linebacker Lawrence Timmons to be the nucleus of a defense this season, he inherited the buck linebacker position and signal-calling duties,and Sunday against the Cleveland Browns was his first meaningful game acting in this role.
Unfortunately, much of it wasn’t very pretty, especially once we get to the second half of the game. Defensive coordinator Dick LeBeau said after the game that the biggest issue the defense had in the second half was lapses in communication.
That just so happens to fall under Timmons’ jurisdiction, and he struggled to get his troops lined up in advanceof the Browns’ hurry up pace in the second half. More than that, he struggled often to find the right holes, overrunning several plays in the process." <-- so, in his second year as the (part-time) Buck, he STILL couldn't get anyone lined up and the plays called.
Not to mention an article on his shitfuck tackling from The Paper Not to Be Named.
The other comes from such notorious Steeler-hating sources as Steelers Depot and KFFL.
I know, I know, it's all because he's the first ILB IN LEAGUE HISTORY to play next to a rookie. As we know, all other good ILBs play with nothing but All-Pros around them. Timmons is the only player in the league who can use the - for two years straight. His 7th and 8th NFL seasons.
As we all know, it takes AT LEAST 9-10 years to learn an ILB position in today's NFL. Even Willis needs his safeties to come call the defense for him - even though he only plays the Buck on third downs.
or, maybe you're wrong? nah...couldnt be. oh, but you are...
Oh, so he became the Buck? Or he only played the Buck on third downs? My God, it's like Patrick Willis and Jack Lambert had a baby!
Throughout 2013, this board was buzzing about the fact that Timmons was so over his head at Buck that Troy was calling the defensive plays for him. Even the cheerleaders noted it. But not you. Only SUPERMAN knows the ins and outs of Lawrence Timmons. (Or more likely, Timmons knows the ins and outs of your throat.)
"a chess piece of devastation" good holy god drinking a flat zima from up on high.
he's moved around because ... Spence. Williams. Shazier.
Yes, he's certainly moved around. I guess that means he's automatically good everywhere, despite the reviews from film-watchers. Which we know isn't your thing.
and before you starting your predictable "make his bust for Canton now!" bullshit, no one ... I repeat... NO ONE is saying he's on par with Lambert, Ham, Greene, Lloyd or Harrison. Hell, no one has even said he is the exact equivalent of Farrior. All that has been said is that he's very close to being as good as Farrior. But, since someone heaped praise on him, well, that's just unacceptable. To the IdiotKeyBoard! this must be stopped at once. Only Bash Timmons! No other choice! No other way! Clearly no one else understands football the way you do, what with your multiple 4k tvs set up so you can watch every game and clearly unemotionally and without bias break down every play of every single player, offer up your own misguided stats and predict DOoooOooM! GlooOoOooM! Agony on the Stillerz. Becarz. Idiot.
I've been told he's more talented than Farrior, and that Farrior ****** up a lot just like Timmons does. When I hear absurdist hyperbole like that, I jump in.
