Suh Suspended for First Playoff Game

Disagree. Anyone other than Suh may not have been suspended. Also, that team is the biggest group of idiots ever assembled.
I think Suh's well deserved reputation as a dirty player is going to eliminate giving him the benefit of a doubt.
I think it's more Suh has a checkered history and it was very clearly on purpose. The first step should have been a clue to stop backing up.
Rodgers, Manning, and Brady. You step on those 3 and you get in trouble. Anyone else, and that play would have gone unnoticed.
I'm saying this as someone who is very happy he won't be playing against the Cowboys.
Its happening because of the way Rodgers responded. Had Rodgers not responded at all, Fox wouldn't of spent so much time replaying it, and it probably would of never been brought to the NFL's attention. However, if the Lions were playing the Bears, Suh did this to Cutler, and Cutler responded like Rodgers did, Suh is still suspended.
Suh's reputation of being an ******* earned him this suspension, not Rodgers reputation of being a class act.
This is more likely. He's a well known turd. If he steps on anyone like that, TWICE, someone will notice.
It definitely didn't help that it was A-aron Rodgers though.
probably has more to do with suh being a d-bag than anything, but rodgers is the most protected dude in the league. sissified flags are thrown all the time when he gets up crying to the officials after every play.
I see why you would say that, but it probably goes uncalled for any other defender. Suh has a clear history of ******* dirty plays so you have to assume he's in the bad when there is any question.
I don't think this was bad and happens in many games to many players, but when the camera is right on the QB who is already down and the player in question has a clear history of being a *********, you make the call every time. Suh's lucky he plays on a team full of morons or he'd be in contention with Manziel for stupidest player in the game.
That punishment is way over the top. This is football! Ya think stepping on a guys foot is the worthy of a suspension? A lot worse goes on
Oh I agree. The suspension is a mixture of Suh's reputation and Aaron Rodgers being on the receiving end IMO. But no question his reputation was a major factor.
To the part I quoted. It does happen to many players in many games, but when it happens to the Big 3 is usually when you will see punishment. I still don't think Suh is suspended if he steps on Teddy B or Jay Cutler. But that's just my opinion.
What an idiot. As an athlete in a high profile game how are you completely incappable of understanding that there are roughly 1,645,877 different camera's recording every single angle of every single game. You cannot get away with anything anymore.
