ESPN: Lions Ecstatic That Suh Will Play

[DFWJC]

What surprised me is that Nick Fairly might play too.
yikes

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

I don't think Suh is anywhere near the player Watt is as far as impact he's a total game wrecker for any offense as for Suh he is a good player but he is not keeping OCs up at night like Watt would.

be ecstatic all you want, Lions fans. Cowboys are on a roll and Suh wwill only make a slight difference imho.

As to Suh, i predict he will end up infirm, bankruput and just a has-been thug in retirement. Oh, yea i forgot, and ugly inside and out.

I will really enjoy this upcoming game. I am not making predictions beyond this game, but let me say this: the Lions are really overrated and the Cowboys very underrated. Had Ware not deteriorated early and Spencer had realized his potential and stuff, we'd be a lock for the Super Bowl.

He can play it would make the competition that much better but if I'm Dallas as I said in a previous post on this thread I would run the ball right at him to test that knee.

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.

We don't have anything to do with the Suh situation. We just happen to be the next opponent after he showed his behind yet again. Now there have been words as far as Tate and Church, but that's about an incident before he even played for the Lions. If they want to focus on nonsense as motivation, fine. They'll be that much more devastated when we hit them in the mouth.

He hasn't played since week 8, and is down to 290 lbs.

Advantage Dallas if they want to put him out there. I think a backup would be the safer play.

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!

Dude, I don't think people are going to realize this until the game starts. This one won't be for the faint of heart.

 

[Boyzmamacita]

Let them be ecstatic. That's the only ecstasy they will experience this weekend......unless they get high.

It is not even close.

Go watch the Packer game and see the likes of T.J. Lang stalemating Suh.

Lang is a good player.

 

[Alexander]

Lang is a good player.

Yes, but Martin is much better. I just do not subscribe to the idea that Suh is unstoppable.

When I go to work angry I have a crappy work day. Just because you're playing angry doesn't mean you will perform better.
Sometimes playing angry takes you off playing fundamentally sound football.

 

[endersdragon]

I normally wouldn't advocate this, but for Romo's back's sake, Fredbeard and Martin should go low-high on him first play of the game. Best case scenerio it ends his season just like it should already be over, worst case it sends a message that if he goes after Romo they will do it again... and again.

I just watched the Replay of the Lions/Packers game last week. Suh didn't do a lot... he made couple of plays. Macy ran all over their #1 run defense early- The Packers stayed with the run all day long. 126 total rushing yards, 100 by Macy.

This is a much different Cowboys team, both personnel and coaches- wise. The Lions are gonna get punched square in the mouth the same way the Eagles, Indy, and Washington did

Suh really made a difference last week

Macy? I'm hearing Buckwheat's voice in my head.

Every year it's the same thing with every play-off game or game for that matter. Bradie James getting abused by Kitna only to say the following year he remembers Kitna's words about targeting him and he's going to get pay-back. Seattle, we got to hear about how dirty they cornerbacks played last year.

 

[khiladi]

Motivation is a year long thing not based on a one-bit story sound clip. Dallas looks to focused from the people it matters to care.

Sure didn't lol

An honest man. I love it.
