If so you are wrong. They are tied with the Cutler-less Bears and the Cowboys whom they have already beaten. Their two remaining home games are winnable.(Vikings and Chargers)

The Saints and Packers games are losses, but the Raiders game is winnable. However, the Packers game in Lambeau may be more winnable if the Packers choose to sit their starters.  much depends if they are still undefeated come January 1st.

Hating the Lions makes me a "troll"?  Okay, whatever you say, chief.  I've been pretty forthright with my hatred of the Lions on this board.  I don't say what I say to provoke anyone; I'm just being honest.  I can't stand the Lions or their fans.

Did you see his excuse post-game? If I were the Lions, I no longer make this guy available for interviews. I don't really pay much attention to the NFL, I don't live in Michigan, so I really do not know much of his reputation off the field...but what I saw today on the field, and then heard as an explanation afterwards...there is no amount of repair that guy can do to his image. He is a classless human being. Playing a violent sport doesn't excuse plays like that, which might have been excused away with an "I apologize, I lost my cool and let my emotions get the best of me." Rather than an "I was trying to get up and lost my balance so you didn't really see me stomp that man that was lying there on the ground." NFL should give him an extra game just for being stupid.

 

All you peoples excusing Suh or still supporting him need to never criticize Gholston, or the MSU LB that slammed Dennard, or the Wiscy lineman that chopped Martin last year ever again. The double standard is seriously making me cringe.

Schwartz needs to finally step in and be a real HC and tell Suh to cut that shit out.  Schwartz is trying to be a poor man's Rex Ryan with all of the attitude crap and its not working...his team plays out of control.  Its on him to reign it in...its what good coaches do.  Bellichick wouldnt put up with that shit.

I had defended Suh in the past, but I definitely won't be doing so for a while.  Really need to see some improvement in the sportsmanship aspect of his game, that's for sure.

I'm guessing Spartan fans loved it since it was emotional and all. Suh was my favorite Lion and still is, but damn if he ain't getting suspended for that.  He ought to be.

I had to laugh, though, when I read some writer say "well, the Lions will get extra attention from the refs now."  Oh, because that wasn't already happening.  Suh gets fined for every stupid little thing that he does, whether it's pushing a guy from behind too meanly, or whatever.  A small part of me says, if you're gonna be the target of fines no matter what you do, might as well get your money's worth.

Fans who were at the game did not see the replay of the stomp because the stadium TV never showed it, according to my friends who went. The first time they saw it was after we ate Thanksgiving dinner and were watching the Ravens-Niners pregame. Their reaction pretty much was "yeah, that's not good."

I want to give Suh the benefit of the doubt, but Schwartz must have a heart-to-heart talk with the guy. I don't doubt Suh is a good dude, but maybe like some actors get lost in their roles or cops get too deep in their cover, perhaps Suh has blurred the line between his off and on the field personas. It sounds crazy, but it can happen. Let's not foget that Suh is no Larry Harrison or Albert Haynesworth, who I both think are not the greatest human beings in the world when compared to Suh (Harrison insulted the commish in a magazine article whereas Suh actually asked for a meeting...Haynesworth actually caused bodily harm when he stomped on a guy's head).

Leads me to one last thing: The media guys, especially the ex-NFL types, are a bunch of fricking hypocrites when it comes to Suh.

I saw more than one play while he was at Nebraska where it was obvious to me he was trying to injure the guy he was taking down, and he's continuing to do the same thing in the NFL.
