Mavric Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Um ... I don't think the point is how much it might have hurt. It's that it's a pretty good roundhouse to the back of the guy's head. He's trying to throw him to the ground there's no way that was intended to be a "punch". Even if that is correct, what is the point of trying to throw him to the ground? He threw him right in the way of where he'd have to go to pursue the play. Quote Link to comment
GSG Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Looks like he was being held and shucked him off Gonna be interesting to watch this witch hunt throughout the season Quote Link to comment
RedRedJarvisRedwine Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 I got no problem with the medias obsession with Suh. I don't get Detroit games usually and so it's my way of catching up with how he's doing. As far as his antics go, meh! The game is losing its appeal as far as watching your favorite defense play. Your favorite defensive players have been neutered by the league and its only gonna get worse. Quote Link to comment
GSG Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Winston (#73 in the video) doesn't think it was intentional http://espn.go.com/n...h-detroit-lions "Things happen out there," he said. "I was moving him pretty good. He was trying to get off me. I don't know if it was intentional or not. I doubt it. But I think with that guy, obviously he's probably lost the benefit of the doubt with a lot of people." "If he swings like that and hits me across the shoulder like that, it's fine," Winston said. "I'm not going to go off and say he was purposely taking a swing at my head. I think he was probably just trying to flail and get off the block. Quote Link to comment

Because it looks like just another football play to me. Not to mention it's really not the greatest angle to see what was going on. Quote Link to comment

Just because he could? Even if it wasn't vicious that doesn't have anything to do with the game. And he's given away his right to be borderline on plays like that. Quote Link to comment
suh_fan93 Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 ^ Give me a break.... Anyway even though it was against my Bears big game for Suh today. 2 sacks both for losses and 1 fumble caused which was picked up by Nick Fairly who took it in for 6. Not a bad day at the office.

Guy Chamberlin Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 You want to talk about football players with a bad reputation? Jay Cutler. Even his teammates can't stand him. Quote Link to comment
GSG Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 The dominance of Ndamukong Suh: The fourth-year defensive tackle out of Nebraska is playing the best football of his career. He had his best game, statistically, this season by sacking Jay Cutler twice. One of the sacks forced a fumble that led to a Nick Fairley touchdown, after which Fairley knocked Suh down in the ensuing celebration. Much was made last week of Suh’s matchup against Bears rookie Kyle Long on Sunday. Instead, Suh saw double-teams most of the game and still pretty well dominated the rookie. “He’s a grown man,” Long told MLive.com after the game. “That’s a grown man I played against [sunday].” As written about a lot here in the past seven days, Suh’s ability to control an offensive line opens things up for Fairley, and ends Ziggy Ansah and Willie Young in a way few other defensive tackles can replicate. http://espn.go.com/b...ew-lions-week-4 Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 Not Suh but a former Husker and current teammate: The Detroit Lions are looking into an alleged verbal abuse incident involving starting center Dominic Raiola during Sunday's 22-9 loss to the Green Bay Packers.Raiola is alleged to have hurled insults, some involving the sexuality and physical appearance of some University of Wisconsin band members, both before the game and at halftime. Michael Leckrone, the director of bands at Wisconsin, told ESPN.com that the incident occurred just before the start of the national anthem in the end zone as the band was planning on finishing up its pregame performance. The Wisconsin band travels once a year to perform at a Packers game. "The band was lined up in the end zone preparing to finish 'The Star-Spangled Banner,' which would complete the pregame, and basically they were verbally assaulted by a member of the Detroit Lions team," Leckrone said. "To their credit, they just stood there and did what they were supposed to do, which is focus on their performance. ESPN Article Quote Link to comment
knapplc Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 Raiola most likely doesn't have a good explanation for this. It's unlikely any of the Wiscy band members were responsible for shaving his dog or TPing his wisteria. Seems like a pretty odd thing to do - heckling a bunch of kids in a band. Would love to hear Raiola's side of this. Quote Link to comment
ShawnWatson Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 How is this even a story? Leckrone guessed that between eight and 12 band members approached him after the alleged verbal assault. Leckrone said he did not hear the altercation happen himself, as he was on the other side of the field and was not directly involved. For that reason, he did not want to go into detail about what was allegedly said to his students. Quote Link to comment

fwhuskerfan Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 Suh is a defensive tackle who's by far his team’s best option as a pass-rusher. His sack totals have dipped since his double-digit rookie season, but through the first five games of this year, he’s been a constant presence in opposing backfields. The Lions have been creative in moving him around — both as a stand-up player in the middle of the line and at defensive end — but he’s managed to get pressure no matter where he lines up. Ranks number 4 in Grantland's QB less NFL MVP listing. http://www.grantland.com/blog/the-triangle/post/_/id/77502/the-quarterback-less-nfl-mvp-rankings Quote Link to comment
