[QUOTE="CM3ismyhomeboy, post: 406373, member: 5590"] Look, I'll be the first to admit that no fan of any team can always be 100% unbiased, I'm not accusing you of being a terrible Lions fan I just think when it comes to the evidence presented you have to admit that there are things Suh does on the football field that are inexcusable, he has a tendency to take things out of the realm of what's okay (If BJ Raji grabs Stafford's head and twists it in a way that causes irreparable harm not just to his playing career but to his quality of life, you would call for all hell to come down on him or at least you should). I'm all for playing through the whistle, but there is a difference between maintaining a physical edge and doing things that are blatantly dangerous. When he is locked in and it is about FOOTBALL, he's a dominating player and a top 5 defensive linemen, not just tackle. However, he like James Harrison have shown a tendency to forget that though it may be a violent sport, lives are still at stake. I sure as hell wouldn't want a serious, life-altering injury on my conscience if its something that is AVOIDABLE (full speed, bang-bang plays in the middle of the field are NOT avoidable generally speaking and of course is where I agree that the game and Goodell are making horrible mistakes in their fines, rule-changes, etc). You say you don't see intent to harm [I]in most of them.[/I] Uh...should you see it in any of them? I can't find video of the play, but if I remember correctly it was an unnecessary undercut on Mughelli's knees who wasn't facing the play. I cold be wrong though. I know a friend of mine that is a Falcons fan was pretty bummed out by it. I see guys like Ray Lewis make violent, clean hits all the time that still have the wow factor without having to go unnecessarily low or high, but I may be wrong... By the way, I feel guys like Suh are partly to blame for why they keep slanting the rules so much in the offenses favor. However, I think they eventually will come up with some things to balance the game out again for defense. After all, its not like their is an astonishing number of great quarterbacking going on in the NFL anyway.
