Ravens linebacker Terrell Suggs is a sack machine during games, and often a quote machine before them.

This week, Suggs has been talking a black-and-gold streak, with conference calls and press conferences and interviews regarding the Pittsburgh Steelers. In an interview with Bob Costas to be aired during tonight’s edition of Football Night in America, Suggs talks about a variety of topics, including his feelings on whether the Ravens can complete the sweep.

“This time I’m walking in there with a big cape of confidence,” Suggs told Costas. “I know we can do it. I know we can. Times before I walked in there, I’d be like, let me see how this one is going to go. This time, I know we gonna do it.”

Suggs claims that he’s ambivalent about Baltimore’s opponent. “I don’t have any feelings towards them to be totally honest with you,” Suggs said. “Whenever I see those two colors together or a certain someone smiling at me, I don’t get no feeling at all.”

Suggs was talking about Hines Ward, even though Suggs will refer to Ward only by his number. “They’re the enemy,” Suggs said. “They’re the enemy.”

The enemy is waiting for Suggs and company. It gets started tonight at 8:20 p.m. ET. Before that, tune in to NBC at 7:00 p.m. ET for the fulls Suggs interview on Football Night in America.
