This is not a good idea. I can’t believe a team that’s 5-1 would make such a desperate move. Sure the defense has looked like trash the last few weeks, but what good does it do if Suggs re-injures his achilles and has to start over.

It’s not like Suggs playing at 75-80% will have much effect on the 26th ranked defense.

As a ravens fan I feel he should wait at least through the bye week. I don’t want him on the field is not 100%. Their defense is struggled enough and if he injures himself and can’t come back it’s only going to get worse. We are a lucky five and one team.

Since when does Suggs call the shots on the team?

Don’t know that I would EVER wish for the Texans to have to play against T-Sizzle but… dude does NOT look game ready. 2 days of practice, apparently no practice in off season. DPOY or not, Duane Brown is no joke and if you come it him half speed, he will own you.

I seriously doubt he’s between the lines on Sunday. He might be more of a liability than a weapon right now.

Sluggs looks fat. Unless he drops about 30lb, he isn’t playing Sunday.

He should call Panthers’ MLB Jon Beason and ask him about trying to rush back from an Achilles injury. Beason had a “minor surgical procedure” (definition of “minor surgical procedure” being someone else’s surgical procedure) prior to the season and ended up fully rupturing his Achilles in the season opener. Achilles injuries aren’t to be rushed. You’re ready when you’re ready. Hopefully Baltimore’s medical staff will be smarter than Carolina’s medical staff in this situation. The Panthers have a great LB corps, but both Beason and Thomas Davis have been done a disservice by that medical staff and the way their rehab was handled.

Why tip your hand? I wouldn’t be surprised if they rotate him in on obvious passing plays.

… and if they did, don’t you think it would IMMEDIATELY get the attention of Matt Shaub and their offensive line? So you know that is something they are going to be thinking about in practice. Either way, he’s already having an impact on the game whether he’s out there or not. The Texans have to prepare for him either way.

I don’t know where or when trolls like Schefter and Mortensen come with this stuff. Of COURSE he wants to play. That doesn’t mean that reason has deserted the coaching staff and they will let him.

Read the Baltimore Sun. He’s overweight and not game-fit. The only thing he’s tackled in the past 6 months is the pillows on his bed.

He’s not playing, period.

ESPN will bite at anything for a by-line.

These guys can’t win. When they get hurt and take themselves out (e.g. Jay Cutler), everyone tells them to suck it up. When they get hurt and want to come back as soon as possible, people call them “stupid.”

@thegreat8andjoecool,

He didnt say it wasnt hard, he just said he’s not going to do it…

He should be noncommital, he just practiced with the team on Wednesday for the FIRST TIME SINCE JANUARY. I love the guy and want to see him back sooner rather than later, but he doesn’t need to go back out there Sunday and either a) look like he’s got 5 inches of rust caked on him or b) reinjure it after a quarter because he isn’t back in his groove yet. Please wait til after the bye Sizzle at least. As tempting as it is to try and get all hands on deck for the showdown Sunday, the Ravens are gonna need him more for their other 4 divisional games coming up after the bye.

Suggs has been off his crutches since June. So he’s had about 4 months of rehab.

good point, although im pretty sure a good start isnt to switch your diet over to Big Macs. Im talking about avoiding being obese, not being in football shape.

@jeff, it’s a little bit hard to stay in good physical condition when you can’t put any weight on one leg for 6 months. How’s he supposed to shed weight without any kind of cardio activity open to him?

Sounds like he was really busting his butt since the injury to get back on the field…

If he plays I’ll eat my hat. Even if he’s all healed up there’s no way he’s in football shape after 2 days of practice.

Suggs should wait through the bye at least, but he’s a fierce competitor so I can see why with Ray and Ladarius going down he’s eager to get out there.

But noncommittal is still good for the Ravens, pull a Belichick with their injury report and list him doubtful and then start him.
