Ndamukong Suh Ejection: Denial Proves Suh Is Completely Crazy

Ndamukong Suh is one of the best defensive linemen in the NFL. However, he is not one of the brightest when he describes his actions. 

He does have the reputation of being a dirty player, as he’s been fined by the NFL for $42,000 this year. After his latest incident today against the Green Bay Packers, where Suh stepped on an opposing player, he will see that total increase. 

However, Suh doesn’t see why everyone is making a big deal about this. In his own words, he doesn’t think that he intentionally stepped on anyone.

"If I see a guy stepping on somebody I feel like they're going to lean into it and forcefully step on that person or stand over that person. I'm going in the opposite direction to where he's at."

Okay, that makes a lot of sense, and so did O.J. Simpson's defense of, "If the glove doesn’t fit you must acquit."

This is how Suh saw the play happen: 

"

I was on top of a guy being pulled down and trying to get up off the ground, which is why you see me pushing his helmet down. As I'm getting up, I'm getting pushed so I'm getting myself unbalanced. With that a lot of people are going to interpret it as or create their own storylines...but I know what I did, and the man upstairs knows what I did.

"

Let’s hope that when he says, "the man upstairs knows what I did," he’s referring to NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell. Because from the video replays of this incident, it looks like Suh is going to receive a large fine and maybe a suspension. 

Suh is right though, he is trying to get up, and a way you get up is by driving an opponent's head into the ground. And he is right in when you are pushed unbalanced, you can stomp your leg to balance yourself. 

Still Suh is claiming innocence, saying:

"

My intentions were not to kick anybody, as I did not. (I was) removing myself, as you see, I'm walking away from the situation. And with that I apologize to my teammates, and my fans and my coaches for putting myself to be in position to be misinterpreted and taken out of the game.

"

At least he is apologizing to his teammates and the fans who came out today. However, because Suh lost his temper he becomes the story coming from today’s game. 

Whether or not Suh’s style of playing is intense or dirty, is up for debate. However, if he continues to have highlights like this one, this budding career will be cut short due to fines and suspensions.
