    Timmons is an incredible athlete. His speed might be his biggest weapon. He is wasted in the pass rush. He can fill that role fairly well, but having a 300 lb tackle leaning on him when he rushes really slows him down. He doesn't have the power of Harrison or Woodley. Put him back at MLB and let the pass rush up to the D-line until Harrison and Woodley come back. There was almost no pressure from the OLBs in the second half of the Pats game.

    Probable means there's a 75% chance he's playing.

    I hope he does lay a beating on Flacco .. With Woodley out they will have fits trying to stop Silverback. He has been out long enough to be hungry and rabid :good:

    Woodley commented that Flacco would never win a superbowl last year .. Well Woodley is not a concern right now .. So we have Timmons, Foote/Farrior, Harrison,

    I think Timmons is more comfortable and more effective at OLB. At ILB he looks to timid and seems to run around blocks rather than explode through them. At OLB he seems to relax a little bit and just play the game.

    Wish I could see him go against McKinnie in this game as I think that would be a good matchup for us.
