Lions defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh could miss Colts vs. Lions next week

[corgi]

It's being reported on PFT that Ndamukong Suh could face a one game suspension for stepping on Matt Schaub's groin in yesterdays game. It's not a certainty at this point, but if Suh is out that could be huge for Luck & Company.

[ColtsSouljah]

It was actually a "kick" and I for one was surprised that the announcers were debating whether it was intentional or not. He certainly meant to kick him; you can see his leg change directions midair, and that doesn't happen if you're just "falling" into someone.

[Dan]

This would be brilliant. The idea of Suh vs Satele, McGlynn and Reitz was giving me nightmares.

[TMPHBITEU]

If the above isn't intentional, I don't know what is.

[Stephen]

Doesn't matter megatron and stafford are still playing

[buffalo34]

I believe there was also a play later in the game where he was pressuring Schaub and tried to bring him down by the horsecollars on both sides...the play I believe was in the 4th quarter and deep in Lions territory...didn't know if it was illegal or not.

[Qwiz]

Yeah, he'll probably be out. Makes things easier for 12 in the pocket, that's for sure.

[PrincetonTiger]

wow

Eh, I'm not worried. The texans have one of the best Ds in the league and held them to 31. We should easily keep them under a hundy.

You forgot this Sign ---->

[Andy]

If he is suspended, I think Mike McGlynn just became the happiest guy in America.

I think Suh will get away with this one. Not enough to give him a suspension.

Than again those same DBs allowed the Jags to score 37. .

I agree...its very hard for that kick to be unintentional...

Suh may not have meant to hit Matt Stafford exactly where he hit him....but he was definetly trying to kick him..

[Fx Stryker]

Youse really think that is intentional?

[Dan]

His leg stays in the air far too long for it to be unintentional. The rest of him falls, but his leg keeps moving towards Schaub.

[subvet]

If the above isn't intentional, I don't know what is.

I don't see how he even knew what was there and might have been a reflex, after all unless there are eyes in the side of his head I don't see malicious intent.

I respect Schuab, he's a Class Act. Cause if I was him... me & Suh would've been Fighting after I got up. Johnson vs Finnegan type fight

simms seems to give everyone the benefit of the doubt

thank god schaub is smarter than you. volkswagen vs mack truck.....

[Jules]

Something about Thanksgiving just brings out the best in the boy named Suh. Sigh.

I think he gave an extra kick there to the Schaub family jewels. (Not Jules)

[Indyfan4life]

If you think that kick was unintentional, you're delusional yourself. Suh's head is looking RIGHT at Schaub as he kicks him. He only turns it away AFTER the kick landed.

[TKnight24]

The Bigger they are, the Harder they Fall

[subvet]

The helmet limits his field of vision, he knew it was Shaub but not where the foot was landing and it seems to hit his number first.

Look at his foot. When it's at his groin he extends it further. If his floot just flew into him as he fell that would be different, but he puts force behind it.

[CCH]

Phewww. Andrew has to be pretty happy to hear that lol.

Agreed he hit intentionally, but he doesn't know what part he hit from what I see but just my opinion.

[FightLikeSin]

I don't see how he even knew what was there and might have been a reflex, after all unless there are eyes in the side of his head I don't see malicious intent.

Suh, who has his left leg at the ready in a dog-like "territory-marking" stance, is clearly going for a hit on the QB in one way or another. He had a clear understanding of where Schaub was when he starts the "roll". You still have peripheral vision with that helmet on...

What is most suspect and telling of this play is that Suh stops himself on his right knee and leverages with his elbow as he brings his leg back to kick. If there was no malicious intent, it's the most awkward way a defender could possibly stop himself after being tripped up. Any other defender would continue the roll onto his stomach like physics intended him too. But SUH NO LIKE PHYSICS!

[Tark The Shark]

If the above isn't intentional, I don't know what is.

All I can hear in my mind, before the kick is "FINISH HIM!" and then after the kick "FATALITY!"

[Smonroe]

Sweep the leg!

[swflacoltsfans]

I didn't think it was intentional

[coltnorth]

The league said they would take his past behaviour into account as well. He is a repeat offender and his behaviour is getting out of hand. Either a big fine or suspension is coming. I really hope for the second.

[GrizzColt]

It looked very intentional to me. He gets in trouble every season and every off season. What a freaking waste of talent!

[ALuck>RG3]

To be completely honest, you have to be a darn beast to kick someone in the nuts while falling to ground and all while not looking. IMO it was unintentional to kick him in the nuts but it was intentional to kick him

[The Fish]

It's so obviously intentional. I'm surprised there's any debate. This is the guy that was called the "dirtiest" player by his coworkers.

[JoKeR]

I agree and add you can't kick other players period. Suspend. We don't Luck getting injuries because Suh doesn't know the difference between MMA and football. I'm all for CLEAN hits not this crap.

[21isSuperman]

Suh is the dirtiest player in the league. It's unfortunate because he is such a great talent. It's certainly a positive for our team that he isn't playing. The NFL shouldn't let none sense like this go through. Suspend him and get him out for a long time. Make him accountable to his teammates, coaches, and fans. He isn't a first time offender and his past punishments have not worked. If I was Goodell, I would suspend him for at least 4 weeks.

[Zachris]

I also believe he did it on purpose. He is who he is and isn't going to change. I personally hope he does get suspended, so that he isn't out there trying to be the one hurting Luck for the season, because that is his goal, take out the QB for the game/season.

[coltsfanatic24]

im more concerned about megatron then suh.

[NewEra]

Eh, I'm not worried. The texans have one of the best Ds in the league and held them to 31. We should easily keep them under a hundy.

you sure about that? they got scorched by the jags previous game also. they're not looking as tough as usual.

[Jules]

Phewww. Andrew has to be pretty happy to hear that lol.

I am sure Andrew would rather not be kicked between the legs.
