After watching the game yesterday, America knows, that Ndamukong Suh will be suspeneded. How many games is yet to be determined, but i will place a bet that it will be 2-4 games. This is a bad situation cause the Lions finally started to turn things around and this is where they need him the most.
Coming from an era that what Suh did yesterday was child's play, All I can say is this. If the NFL is going to hold people accountable for stupid actions like that, then it needs to be across the board and consisitent. Amazing how not one person saw when guard, Evan Dietrich-Smith, took Suh down in an awkard position and continued to hold him. Funny how the refs missed that blatant call. Should Suh have lost his temper? No. He is after all young and probably has played the same way he has his entire life.
We all know change is hard. But Suh must learn to control his temper and become better than that. But I am here to tell you, if it were me, I would have done more than push his face down and kicked him. I am sure of it.
We ask these guys to be as tough as nails, to play through a play, give it your all, be aggressive, kill and get the QB and then in the same breath we want them to stop on a split second and hand out flowers. Maybe Suh should partner up with Ray Lewis and he can help him try and be the same player they hired and still have the aggresiveness. I see games every week where ish happens and the refs dont call it. Then its called on Suh or the Raiders (yep Bill, even sticking up for your team). Not every game is fair, but come on people. really?
Consistency is what the NFL and refs need. More than ever. As for Detroit, well i can pretty much say no playoffs for us next year. I am sure Suh will have lots of time to re-think what happened. I hope the NFL Refs do the same.
