Suggs

Does this chart make any sense? It's from an ESPN video talking about Terrell Suggs new contract. Aren't there several guys like Joey Porter, DeMarcus Ware, James Harrison and Shawne Merriman who have more than 15.5 sacks in the past six seasons?

Yep

Porter: 61.5
Merriman: 39.5 (actually 3 seasons + 1 game)
Ware: 53.5 (4 seasons)
Harrison: 28.5 (5 seasons, 1 game in one of them)

Maybe they're talking about the LOLB

Because I know Porter and Harrison were/are right side OLB’s, but I can’t say the same for the rest as I don’t really know.

Could be

also Suggs has 53 not 53.5 I think.

wtf?

Yeah this is strange. Woodley hasn’t even been in the league for six seasons. They are trying to make him look like Suggs has had a better career?

When I say who dey, you say we dey.

yea that's what I was thinking

Now that I look at it again it makes even less sense. Trent Cole and Chris Clemons are defensive ends who have never even played LB or in a 3-4 defense.

Woodley's have been more important, too

19.5 in his last 19 games, including 8 in 4 PO games….Suggs WAS better, then Woodley started playing more….now LW’s far more dominant.

That is a bizarre graph – they left out that Suggs also has more sacks than LB’s Trent Green and Jon Runyan.

Guys...

I can’t believe you’re all missing this. It’s so simple.

This graphic only includes players who played last season in the area below the NY/ PA state border and above the MD/ VA border, but no further east than interstate 79S. Furthermore it excludes any player listed above 6’4", and you must of been born after October 1st but not after November 15th. It’s really pretty simple and really shows you just how good these guys really are.

C’mon, how could you all have missed that? And you call yourself sports fans. FOR SHAME!

Ohhhhhhh

Now I get it. Thanks for the clarification. In other words it’s all poo.

Is it bad...

That no matter what you write, I picture all of it being said by that picture of Tomlin in the top right corner of your box?

And yes, all poo-tastic.

that's funny

I thought the same thing of a guy that has the Cowher avitar.
