Leading the team in tackles is meaningless. He was thrown at 9 times and beaten 9 times in coverage for 95 yards. You aren't looking at the total picture. There is a reason why Miami wanted to trade for Anthony for weeks, its to replace Hull cause Hull can't cut it. He had some tackles in the running game when Suh and Godchaux was doing all of the heavy lifting there, great, but he was a huge liability in the passing game that almost cost Miami a win. If Hull is so great Miami wouldn't have signed Rey Maulaluga or traded for Anthony. And he would have been the starter over Raekwon McMillian from day 1.
But of course all of those facts blow up your argument so...BYE FELICIA!
And if you don't think Hull is the weakest link on defense among the starters then you are so blinded by homerism or are Mike Hull's relative or something. That is crazy talk. Hull and the MLB spot is the weakest spot on this defense and its not even close
That may all be true and yet we still don't know if Timmons is any better or if he is how much better he is. I didn't hear anyone claiming that Timmons was gonna save the Dolphins D this year. I think they will survive without him. Maybe Chase Allen is a stud.
