I don't think he's a problem at all. 49 tackles and 5.5 sacks from a DT is ridiculous. He had 10 sacks as rookie. Dude is ridiculous. He has no off the field issues. His only "problem" is he's overly physical. Some call him dirty. I call him productive. But yeah, too much money for the Saints. If he was making like $8 million though....

He hasn't gotten into the type of trouble a lot of other players have, but he does have a run-in with the law.

Yeah, ... he's a real "choirboy", ... that's the only one the national media reported ... he was also involved in a little incident on the Southfield Freeway on his way to work where he crossed multiple lanes to get to an exit, caused an accident and fled behind the gates of the Lions training facility to avoid responsibility ... oh, and then there's the lawsuit he just lost where he was withholding security deposits from tenants, not too mention the constant flow of stupid comments from his sister ... yeah, the guy's a real "saint" off the field, ... and let's just cherry pick stats from multiple seasons to support our case, ie 49 tackles, 5.5 sacks ... what season was that? For 2013 he had 36 tackles, 12 assists, 1 safety, 5.5 sacks (or less than 4 plays per game, and that was actually up from the two previous seasons) and none of them were important, game-changers, made a difference or came at crucial times during a game ... sorry fellas, but I just don't see the point in worshipping at the altar of Suh ... maybe I hold my heroes to a higher standard, IDK, but this guy has really only had two outstanding seasons, his senior year at Nebraska & his rookie season with the Lions ... pretty poor showing for all the hype, IMO.

I can understand why fans are infatuated with him, but upon further review, he's just an average defensive tackle with an extraordinary image/persona/contract, none of which he backs up with his play on the field, <shrug>. It is what it is ... the prosecution rests, .

Oh, never mind, ... I just saw his stats on Wikipedia and he's listed as having 49 combined tackles, ... and while we're busy referencing Wikipedia, let's not overlook what a stud he was in high school ... 65 tackles, 10 sacks & four fumble recoveries because we all know how important previous stats/performance are in the "what have you done for me lately" NFL, ... sorry guys, I've just grown tired of this debate over the past few seasons, .

No off the field issues except driving recklessly and getting other people injured. LOL.

Seattle just won the ship. We could use some of their type of players.
