Watch the Battle Between Sitton and Suh
#71 for the Packers versus #90 for the Lions, worth the price of admission.
Even if line play only looks like so much "goo-lash" to you, you may want to take a break from the ball and check out the battle between Josh Sitton and Ndamukong Suh for a snap or two.
It's a match-up of two guys who can, and have played their positions at a very high level. Sitton, the Packers right guard, is thicker than thick and he can move his feet. Due to his mass, here's hard to knock around. Due to his feet, he's hard to get around. And he plays the game with a nasty disposition, which brings us to Ndamukong Suh.
He hasn't been an every down lights out player this season, but when he decides to bring it, hang on to your helmet. Rather than bore you with height, weight and 40 time, let's put it this way. He's strong enough to go right over the top of a blocker, but quick enough to slip past him. The combination is what separates the men from the boys along the defensive line.
As for as the extra-curricular stuff that Suh has become famous for, I wouldn't expect much. These two combatants know they're facing a real deal opponent and there's a respect factor that goes along with that.
