Re: Just how good is Terrell Suggs playing?
I thought about this after he won the DPOY a couple years ago.

Filmstudy posted a little something on what Suggs needed to reach the Hall. I don't have the link, but here is the text:
He now has several possible paths to Canton. If the Ravens win a Super Bowl with him, he’s in. If he were to have 1 more similar season to 2011 (DPOY or consideration), he’s in. If he makes 2 more Pro Bowls, I think that would do it. While it’s not what Ravens fans want, he might also make it by the longevity route by staying in the league as a quality and balanced DE for another 5+ years. He’ll turn 30 next October during his 10th NFL season.
I feel like this season's DPOY is JJ Watt's to lose. But if Suggs keeps this up, he is on his way to a good showing in the vote at least. Pro Bowl, probably a mention on the All-Pro team. That, along with the Ravens SB win, and whatever they do this postseason – and Suggs has some productive years left, too.
I would say this 3-year stretch, 2011-12-13, has transformed Suggs from a borderline HOF player, to a likely HOF player. Pretty awesome.

Re: Just how good is Terrell Suggs playing?
I think he needs to finish this year strong and have 2 more years of double digit sacks for me to really feel comfortable.
His 07 and 09 seasons take some of the bloom off of the rose as those were particularly poor years for him as he was coming into camp out of shape and all.
Also it's really unfortunate that he got hurt last year which pretty much cost him a year of production and interrupted his career momentum...at least in terms of keeping his name in the minds of the media/HOF voters. I wish he was healthy enough to dominate in last years playoffs.
But he can overcome that stuff if he finishes his career strong. He's been a heck of a Raven.

According to Walsh, talent on defense was essential and could not be compensated for. What did Walsh do in 1981? He acquired physical and talented players on defense.

Elvis Dumervil was the best thing that happened to him. Now, you can't just double Ngata and chip Suggs. You've got Doom, Canty and McPhee to worry about. Even Jones is making noise. This team might double last year's sack total.

Re: Just how good is Terrell Suggs playing?
He's the best player on this team by a wide margin and also the best defensive player in the league right now, and very few players are even close. You can't run at him. You can't leave your OTs lined up one on one with him. He impacts the game on every single play he's out there. He's playing at an unbelievable level right now.

Yes but look further into the total stats including tackles and assists...Suggs is a "CHAINSAW"!!

Re: Just how good is Terrell Suggs playing?
Freeney wasn't making much noise before his injury, he's been dropping off for a few year now. Next year he'll be 34, his best years are behind him.
Suggs is playing his best ball at 30, he's on pace to have his best totals in sacks and tackles. Including his DPOY year. If he stays healthy there's several years left.
