    The man kicked him in the nads. I'd think less of a guy who did that to me too

    If Suh just lands his big-o gams on Matt, and it ends there, I could see it as accidental, but, no... he extends his big-O leg and makes sure he pushes his cleats into Schaub's groin area. $*(&^($*^ Animal. :eek:

    humble beginings, yeah right. I really want to respect suh as a player but that is so childish. Whats up with dominant tackles. Haynesworth stepping on andre gerrad of northshore face

    it wouldn't surprise me if jim schwartz encourages that type of play, sneak in a stop if you can.
    At what point does subway say no thanks Suh, we're giving or chicken teriyaki spot to aj green?

    glad Matt answered the way he did... Suh is definitely not "Houston Texans worthy"

    The way their entire team was playing, I wouldn't be surprised. As I said in other threads, go back and watch what #66 on their OL was doing to Watt nearly the entire game. Going after him after plays, punches to the head, etc.

    I went back and watched the game again over the weekend (while sober this time) and Suh was pretty much going after Matt on every play. Schaub had to jump out of the way several times after throwing the ball to avoid Suh trying to roll over on his knee, etc.

    It wasn't just the kick to the nutsack. Suh was trying to pull a Jared Allen and hurt him.

    I haven't been able to find any video or gif on the play where Suh actually got a hold of him and basically dragged him down after the play was over. That should be looked at as well.

    I realized the one downside of a Suh suspension is that it would remove him from their game against the Colts. Would suck that a team in our division reaps the benefits of a dirty play on us.

    i actually think the other hit where he jumped on matts back and dragged him to the ground pinning matts leg underneath in an awkward position was worse than the nut shot, it was even way after matt released the ball. the lions were getting away with a ton of extra stuff after plays were over... while i believe the kick was intentional, i think the landing spots was accidental, still fine/suspension worthy. the drag down could have put schaub out of the game/season..

    Yep, it was happening on pretty much every pass play where Suh got anywhere near Schaub. A lot of the time, it was something just out of the camera range but you could see Schaub still trying to get away from him right before the camera panned away from him - way after he released the ball.

    Definitely a lot of dirty stuff that happened away from the play(s) that the cameras didn't catch. I think that's why Schaub said what he said. Not just because of the nut shot.

    Looks like Suh will not be suspended for the kick but a fine could still be in the works.

    I think his initial response "i have nothing to say about that play or that person" was actually a really subtle way of saying "f*** that guy" .

    Well done shaub.

    Leaving his feet, and allowing the entirety of his 300 lbs to hang on Schaub's legs is a calculated move by Suh. What a punk ass piece of ****. Jim Schwartz has never reprimanded Suh for his style of play, and it's starting to show up in other players as well. The way they were celebrating after meaningless plays, and preening for no good reason just screamed of a team that lacks discipline and has no focus on larger goals. Schwartz was dirty and classless while in Tennessee, and he's dirty and classless in Detroit.
