There's no comparison and not a single Suh-slappy has ever been able to defend that argument with anything more than, "duh, well he does stuff out there that you really can't see but if you knew football you'd know what I'm talking about, duh" ... cracks me up, .

Actually Suh had 180 tackles and 36 sacks for the Lions over his career there. The stats you meantion are for the 2014 season.

White had 124 sacks in his 8 years with Philadelphia. And the 68,5 more with the Packers in 6 seasons. 5,5 with the Panthers his last year in the league. On average 13,2 sacks per year over his whole career. A darn good average.

However I don't think you really can't compare the two since Suh plays DT and White played end. Suh averages 7,2 sacks per year for his five years in Detroit. I have to say that's a pretty decent average from the DT position.

	W.T. Sherman is my favorite General. After all he did order Atlanta to be burned to the ground.
