I'm not a Lions fan or a Suh fan but this is the right decision. No way to prove that it was intentional and I guess I also agree with Stafford's wife about Rodgers. lol.

It was the perfect storm for the league to issue a knee jerk suspension. First you got the widely hated, often in trouble Suh stepping on player, and then second, that player happens to be the angelic, smells like fresh baked cookies, Rodger's. If it had been some 3rd string LB stepping on a 2nd string TE it might not even get a flag.

Anyway, seems cooler heads prevailed and made the right call, eventually albeit. Good luck in Dallas.

NFL network just reported he was a repeat offender due to having played 32 games violation free. That was game 32 from the game against the Vikings. Two preseasons counted towards this total.

So Suh had a clean slate during his appeal and was considered a first time offense.

Their rules not mine. I still think he had malicious intent. Leaves a bad taste in my mouth about it, but I will take him playing SUnday.

Remember that the call in the Minny game had just become a rule that season also. Don't see that one as really that dirty.

The only question I have is why the reason for the overturn? He either did it on purpose or he didn't. (personally on this one I think he's innocent) But if he won the appeal then why fine him? That's like saying he's only half wrong......

Follow the money to find out the answer.

Kinda makes you really feel like he's headed to NY doesn't it.

Oh well, he's ours for at least one more battle.

No, you gotta be kidding me. Suh never, at all, the whole time, looked down at Rodgers. Tell me how, without knowing where he was at, Suh landed two steps directly on Rodger's bad leg? Complete coincidence man, stop witch hunting- the NFL went on a witch hunt and got burned for it just now. They've got to be both pissed and embarrassed that their mighty rule was over-turned via democratic process...

Actually they will most likely reverse it and hit him with a huge fine which he can fight later.

I am going to go full Chandler Bing for this one:

Could I BE any more accurate!

Yes.

You could have properly punctuated that last sentence. :whistle:

Heard someone on XM NFL call it a discount double step. I think it was Ross Tucker?

Just understand that this in no way changes Merton Hanks status as a pencil-necked cum guzzler. What a complete piece of shit this sorry excuse for a human being is. If he were hanging from a ledge, and needed my help to survive, I would piss in his face.

It wasn't a fucking stomp! He stepped on him twice and by all accounts the first was an accident the second was in question! So the NFL is going to start suspending players that may have stepped on someone under questionable circumstances?

Suh is dirty, fine! But so was James Harrison, Ed Reed, and Bob Sanders. Guys play hard they push the rules and they consistently show up on highlight reels.

SO many whinny bitches. The NFL was targeting Suh because he is Suh. And it was AR who got stepped on....let me repeat stepped on. Throw a flag for unsportsmanlike conduct and move on...oh thats right the ref right their didn't see any intent.

How many games did the Packer get for blowing up Swanson on the offside? Or for the weak slap to Stafford's head? They are all on par with what Suh did.

I hope the Lions don't resign Suh. Not because he is a jackass but because a D-Lineman should not be in the top 5 paid defensive players, not including DE. And the Lions will have to pony up for Levy and Ansah soon. So yes Suh is a jackass but suspension for stepping on a guy. Lord knows what they will do to the guys in the fumble pile now!
