NFL to review Suh's step today

[DOUBLE WING]

I do not think he gets supsended because it wasnt as blatant as Raiola. Suh did a good job of never looking and just nonchalantly stepping on Rodger's foot and without much hurry, walk off.

I think his history, the Lions history, and the fact that it was to the NFL's current golden boy will all lead to a suspension.

At least I hope so.

ah the poor baby....barely stepping on a quarterbacks ankle while on the ground is worse than a 320lb man throwing him down for a sack...you have offensive linemen leg whipping running backs, cut blocks with no suspensions.........and maybe the Washington player should be suspended for kneeing Romo in the back and breaking two vertabrae too, maybe it was on purpose!!

You see, there's a huge difference, some rough plays are in a competition to let the best player win. What Suh does is combative, not competitive. He is riding the line of assaulting other players. Would you use your sarcasm to compare a sack to pulling a knife during a game? I don't think so. Suh is combative, he is not a competitor.

Thats the ticket. Since it happened to THE AARON RODGERS, perhaps it will happen.

If youre going off by player history, dont even review the tape. Lets stone him already.

No, but it plays a part. When you have a guy who has been known to take dirty cheap shots, it helps when you're trying to reason if that could have possibly been accidental. Suh doesn't deserve any benefit of the doubt.

How many times does a proven dirty player get benefit of the doubt from you?

Maybe this 20th time he didn't actually mean it?

I don't get all these people saying it was accidental. How many times have you seen a guy accidentally, nonchalantly step on a guy twice in a row, put all his weight on one foot like that, and not even turn around or look back?

The whole incident was totally unnatural for an accident.

All am saying is, based on the tape, its going to be hard to prove so. But, if all you need is player history, then forget the tape. Suspend him already.

I think the tape makes it easy to prove.

How Suh handled stepping on someone's leg is nothing like a normal human would react if they accidently stepped on someone.

Which part of the tape?

The first time he steps on him?

Or the second time he steps on him?

Or the fact that he doesn't acknowledge doing it at all?

Or that he ignores the fact of someone pushing on the back of his leg?

Which of these four events do you consider 'hard to prove'?

Sorry counselor, but you don't make much of a case.

Nailed it!

What Suh did was ridiculous, and clearly intentional. That being said, I doubt he gets suspended.

It was especially troubling when he did this after stepping on Rodgers' leg:

where's the intent, he wasn't even looking at Rodgers, his back was towards, so unless he has eyes in the back of his head to know where Rodgers ankle was exactly as he was stepping back to steady himself, then it's a nothing play....

If Suh ends up NOT GETTING SUSPENDED, you owe me a "Cowboys Run the East" Tshirt. Okay thank you goodbye.

 

[ManD]

my prediction is he gets slap on the wrist / fine of $50k.

This could excuse the first foot hitting Rodgers foot. If Suh accidently stepped on Rodgers or any player, he would have reacted differently. But when he then steps on the leg with the second foot, any argument that he was not trying to stand on a Rodgers leg looks silly.

Steady himself. LOL.

why are you always so contrarian for the sake of being contrarian?

Ndamukong Suh is being suspended for Sunday's game against Dallas, per @mortreport. When he appeals, hearing officer will be Ted Cottrell.

Boom roasted.

 

[Sydla]

Yep.

Any fan thinking it was accidently was naive.
