I am just saying, Suh even having 9-10 sacks makes it very Un-common.
Is Suh really the top DT?

All have had 8 sacks or more at least once in their career. I could continue if you'd like.

Idonije had 8 and Smith had 8.5.

lol, everyone on that list, minus john randle, is from the last 5 years. "Todays game" meaning anything beyond the 70's, or the merger.

Both are DE's.
Justin Smith is a DE in the 3-4.

I think i've proven my fucking point, at least.
Suh getting 10 sacks doesn't mean he's revolutionizing the DT position. 3 technique DT's are one gap defenders, and always have been.

It's not "uncommon" either... I can list a few more DT's who have had 10 sacks if you'd like.
I'm sure you'd just throw the facts out the window again though.

Another somewhat funny stat. Not that it is a bad thing, but Suh didn't even have the most sacks for a rookie defensive tackle.
I actually LIKE Suh, he's a great player, but he isn't doing shit that hasn't been done several times before.

He's overrated just like every other Detroit Lion that gets hyped up on this forum.
