Let’s begin by rewarding the entire defense the game ball for the performance that resulted in 7 Tennessee Titan turnovers.
Players of note include:
Lawrence Timmons – Back to back games with 15 tackles. Timmons also compiled 12 solo tackles including 3 tackles for loss and 1 forced fumble. This is the second week in a row that Timmons has compiled double digit tackles.
Troy Polamalu – The ultimate Dick Lebeau chess piece. Polamalu had 6 tackles and was key in containing the Titans running and passing offense. Polamalu compiled 6 total tackles, 3 tackles for loss, and 1 interception. Polamalu showcased his instincts and athleticism by leaping over the Titan’s offensive line for a 2-yard Kerry Collins’ sack.
LaMarr Woodley – Woodley again showcased why he is one of the leagues best outside linebacker by compiling 4 tackles, 1 sack, and 1 interception.
James Harrison – Harrison is simply a beast and showed why he was the leagues defensive MVP just 2 years ago. Harrison’s hits were fierce on several occasions. Harrison is on pace for his 3rd straight pro bowl by compiling 11 tackles, 2 sacks and 2 forced fumbles.
