Suh welcomes Andy Dalton to the NFL

[Apathy]

There should be a trophy named after Suh like the there is with Rimmington and Butkus. The House of Spears trophy

I didn't know Ed Cunningham is a commentator for the NFL Network

[redblooded]

To be fair it would be Cunningham on sportscenter.

There's the video from the NFL with announcers.

There are some old time NFL players out there that have to watch Suh with a smile on their face. Suh with his relentless aggression is such a throwback player.

 

Nowadays he'll just get accused of being a dirty player.

 

Sad.

I was at the game last night and I can tell you that the city of Detroit loves Suh and how damn mean he is. Really fits the city's persona. GO LIONS!

He's not mean. He's just misunderstood.

Suh is an absolute animal and is the most dominant defensive lineman to hit the college or pro ranks that I think I have ever seen. Now this fine example video above just shows me that the NFL has gone so overboard with protecting the QB position that it has really gone to the QB's heads. I mean, Dalton's helmet came off just from being grabbed. The damn thing was already off before he ever hit the ground.....you know why? Because these pansies come out there so protected and so untouchable that the damn fools don't even strap up their helmets. Suh may have been overboard, but the kid's helmet flying off sure made it look a bit more offensive..........

 

 

Hey Dalton! Your a football player, not a damn dancing fairy, strap the damn thing on like it is intended to be.

Its called football

The one last year was WAY worse. That was worthy of a fine, this wasn't too bad.

[Fuzzy]

QB's and referees need to realize the difference between a tackle/wrestling someone to the ground and targeting/trying to knock a player out.

[Moiraine]

It wasn't nearly as bad as it looked at first glance. But most of the tackle was for show (he didn't need to jump up like that when he already had the QB wrapped up and taken care of) and perhaps he shouldn't do that as often. On the other hand I like watching him throw QBs around instead of just tackle them.

[Blaze1up]

GOAT, another Deacon Jones. Pure power, tear their face off. Sack.

[redout22]

Shoulda stuck to a contact sport like soccer..

[Paul in WI]

The ridiculousness of that being a penalty is why I don't watch the NFL anymore. Why don't they just get it over with and play 2 hand touch.

 

This, its not a game of gladiators anymore, its a game of a commissioner trying to protect a bunch of teams offensive "investments".

 

I couldn't agree more with both of you.. The money has ruined the game and is why I don't watch anymore either. "Protecting the league's investments" is exactly why that call was made. I hate the fact that due to being so much better than those facing him, Suh has to throttle back his hits and tackles to avoid "loss of investment" penalties. Suh plays football like football was meant to be played, and it is completely fitting that he has a lion on his helmet. Detroit needs something to cheer for these days, and he's just what that town needs. I hope he rips the next guy's head off and throws it to the fans.
