I think Martin will get the best of Suh. As I read Martin is going to the Pro Bowl himself and it is not based on reputation of past season it is based on him playing at a very high level as a rookie.

With our run game, they were pretty much toast if Suh didn't play.
Many say that he's been the best defensive player in the league outside of Watt.

it helps them, but Dallas wins anyway :D

This is going to be one chippy game with all the talk this week and so many players out to prove something.

Bring it on!

By the way, great job NFL. You lifted a thug's suspension now he is even more mad and likely to illegally hurt someone

True, I think what is annoying is all the talk of Suh and as I mentioned we have a stud of our own who will match up head to head with Suh much of the time and that is Zack Martin

Between this story and the Tate story, we've given motivation to the Lions. (We've tried to downplay the Suh story, but it was impossible).

I'd rather just play them straight up, where we're clearly the better team. I don't like these subplots where their scumbag players get to pretend they've been wronged. Hopefully, it doesn't matter.

when the ball is kicked off Sunday all of that stuff does not matter. Lions can focus on the story lines our guys need to be focused on going out and executing, if they do that they will win this game. We have the ability and the players to win just go out and do your job

ESPN Lions reporter Michael Rothstein discusses the impact of the NFL's ruling that Ndamukong Suh can play in the opening playoff round against the Cowboys.

Of course they are happy.

Without him playing..

it would look like Custard's Last Stand with no Reno.

It could be a masacre at the defensive LOS.

Maybe he'll play it safe to avoid injury so he won't risk his upcoming big payday.

Sounds just as logical as the "he's so mad he's going to destroy the other team" theory.

Part of me hopes Suh does something and all get to watch it; and the NFL looks like the tools they are for not suspending him.

I believe so too. Suh's game is based of athleticism and agility, kind of like Ratliff's was.
Luckily we have one of the most fundamentally sound and athletic guards in the game to combat this.

Hey, Suh, you ain't playing the Vikings, Bears, Bucs or any of the other sorry teams you met so far this year. If you think our o-line is just going to lay down for you, think again. You have never done anything against the Cowboys in the past and now or o-line is better, much better. After Sunday's game, you'll have a whole offseason to think about it while wondering what team will want to put up with your crazy ***.
I'm right ther with you and they can be as ecstatic as they want to about Ndamukong Boo playing this Sunday and yes this o-line isn't going to back down from him and his gimpy friend Nick Fairley who can also be a cheap shot artist and I live in SEC country and when he was at Auburn he taking out QBs after the whistle he is another one if he plays the officials need to watch closely.
