Suh Suspended According to Schefter/Mort *Merged*

[TwoDeep3]

NFLN just reported it would be unlikely Nick Fairley will play.

Their thoughts are the Lions will have to drop a safety down to counter the running game of Dallas. And that means Dez will go N-U-T-Z nuts.

How dumb is this guy? I mean you really have to question his discipline and decision making...

He is going to miss the playoffs because of that stupid action.

I don't know the man but thats pretty stupid considering this is a recurring problem.

I know when I was young, I had a horrible temper and hated to lose and that caused me to do some stupid **** but I at least realized how wrong I was and felt horrible immediately, it doesn't seem to bother him in the least even after having time to reflect

Mean Joe Greene, the Hall of Famer who played for the Steelers from 1969 to 1981, told the Detroit Free Press that Suh shouldn’t listen to those who want him to be a kinder, gentler player.

“He is a powerful man,” Greene said of Suh. “Unfortunately for him is that he’s letting some of this notoriety and publicity get in his head a little bit. By that I mean it changes the way he approaches the game, cause if he changes that he’s not Ndamukong anymore. And you need an edge to play in the pit. Anybody that talks about what you shouldn’t do hasn’t been in there. I think you have to play the game the way he does, but not go over the edge. A couple times he went over the edge, and he shouldn’t be afraid of that.”

Greene doesn’t think Suh’s critics understand what it takes to play defensive line in the NFL.

“I know that when the public gets involved and the talking heads get involved and they talk about something they don’t have any idea about — it’s nice and air conditioned where they’re sitting,” Greene said. “So he can’t let other voices dictate how he plays.”

Suh hasn’t responded to Greene’s comments, but I imagine that once he hears what Greene said about him, he’ll say, “Thanks, Mean Joe.”

Why is Suh appealing the suspension? He doesn't have a leg to stand on...

Hey if the Suh fits.....
On the other hand I would hate to be walking in his Suhs right now.

 

[Fredd]

I didn't think in a million years they would suspend him...

lololololololololol

well done

 

[Shotgun Dave]

Nothing there to warrant a suspension, maybe a fine but nothing else

Do you honestly believe that? The man who has been fined, what, 7 times for player safety violations since entering the league? Who has already been suspended for similarly flagrant and dirty stuff.

 

[Red Dragon]

How does the appeal work?
If he appeals can he play pending the hearing?

Wouldn't playing while pending appeal make the 1-game suspension totally meaningless?

Glad your not the person who decides those things. Suh's history buried him. I am surprised it's only one game.

 

[RastaRocket]

Tomorrow per Mortensen

Good, didn't want him trying to drag it out to play.

 

[Tabascocat]

Is Suh dirty? Yes
Does he go overboard? Yes
Does he intentionally go after weak spots? Yes
Is anyones life in danger? No

Whether or not he deserves a suspension for stepping on his calf, I don't care either way. I didn't think it was that bad but history isn't on his side. It was a bitter division rival game, stuff happens and quite a bit more that we don't see.

Now, what really bothers me is the clear facemask on Beasley. That is far more dangerous of a play than standing on golden boys calf. The little guy could have had his neck snapped, paralyzed or even death. THAT play needs to be looked at more carefully but it will slide by because the NFL's poster boy got stepped on.

Carry on.........

^^ This^^

Suh's actions are not trivial, people's livelihoods are at stake and the SOB should be graduating up to multiple game suspensions and banishment soon.

 

[pastordug]

Has Suh responded to this yet?

 

[Texas_Pete]

Aaron Rodgers is the league's golden boy. I'd be surprised if Suh plays this week.


Just think, they'll be without Fairley and Suh. DM29 should have 150+ yards and 2 rushing TDs.

 

[Dale]

Has Suh responded to this yet?

Yes - he stomped on the ground and angrily left the Lions' locker room.

 

[joseephuss]

...

By that logic no player should ever be suspended. No one has every died during an NFL game. Or maybe everyone should be suspended for just playing the sport because even though no one has died during an NFL game it is a violent sport.

 

[DallasDomination]

Good news for us. I don't care to play the best at this point. The weaker the better for us. Hope Stafford pulls a hammy before the game. Yes I said it.

 

[Ultra Warrior]

Hope this Gift that Santa laid late in our laps, helps us continue this ride to where we want to go.

Detroit maybe without Suh and Fairly but their Next man up aren't nobodies either. Think of the Cowboys we don't exactly have household names playing DL either.

I don't take them lightly. Just have our OL play their game regardless of who is lined up opposite and play to our ability. I am sure Detroit will be committed to stopping the run and will also throw in some all out blitzes like Washington as it had some success. This is the playoffs. We need to be on top of our game.
