Amazing how identical Foote and Timmons numbers are this year. Timmons has three interceptions, and Foote none, but their other numbers are nearly identical...

Both had really good years. Foote played as well as anyone could have wanted. I still think Timmons can be better.Originally Posted by Mister Pittsburgh
Foote gets flack but the guy plays to the best of his ability...he has heart. Which is more than I can say for our O.
Both Timmons and Foote played well this season. I don't think the Steelers would release a productive ILB like foote until Spense can prove he is an upgrade. Lets get rid of the deadwood, not players who gave it their all this season.
I would go so far as to say that even surrounded by all these other LBs more athletic than he is, Foote 'flashed' the most this season.
And if the Steelers get better play from the NT next season, Foote & Timmons might be even better.
Foote is not the problem with this football team, and SHOULD be brought back.

I agree 100%, I'll keep driving my opinion that we need a dominate NT, then all the rest will fall into play.

Will Spence ever get back to being normal, Heath as well, after damaging so many knee ligaments?
Replace Jenkins with Jesse Williams and I am with you. Jenkins is NOT a dominate NT. Jesse Williams will be a stud NT in the NFL.I agree 100%, I'll keep driving my opinion that we need a dominate NT, then all the rest will fall into play.

Foote and Timmons have very different roles in this defense. Timmons plays quite a bit in coverage on Tight Ends and his role is more varied.
A direct comparison of stats is misleading, however I would bring Foote back. With the right hogs in front of him, he can still play.
