i missed this and i dont know if im late, but damn that looks dirty. No way Suggs can justify that

I really don't care for the Ravens or Suggs for that matter, but to me that doesn't seem dirty. Suggs is a tall guy and in today's NFL you have to aim at the mid section; Blount I would imagine is a short guy. At least in the angle shown here, Suggs ends up hitting him around the hip area; also the ref blows the whistle just as Suggs is making his tackle, so the play was still live.

I think since his progress looks pretty much stopped and Suggs goes from standing still to throwing his shoulder at the thigh/knee area its dirty. If Blount knee got slightly turned while the hit was in progress, Suggs ends his season. I think its dirty

The play was still live up until Suggs makes his tackle. If anything, the refs should've blown the whistle earlier. Suggs probably should have tried to wrap him up, but defensive players don't seem to do that anymore.

He should have just waited till the game was over and sucker punched Blount rite in his face...
