OK fine, let's say that YOU'RE right about this, how do you justify it being "karma" (Suh's words don't forget) that an innocent player (I mean, what has Matty Ryan ever done??) gets injured?

He was speaking about the Atlanta O line, not Ryan.
Plenty of illegal CHOP BLOCKS that don't get called.
I'm no talking about chop blocks. I'm talking about calling it "karma" that a opposing player (who has done NOTHING wrong) is on the turf writhing in pain. All I can say is that is bush league!
I think you'll find that the Falcons players started that conversation.
Suh just replied.
Lions' Ndamukong Suh has heard enough on 'dirty' play
Chris McCosky/ The Detroit News
Allen Park— Lions defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh is sick of hearing about how dirty he is. He wants proof.
"There is no point in these accusations," he said Monday. "It means nothing to me. But it's really unsettling to me that there's media outlets and reporters that don't do their homework. And it's unsettling because that's their job.
"Go back and watch the film and then come to me and point to where I made mistakes. Point to where I cut somebody, where I hit somebody late in the back. Let me know. I want to see it."
Suh, coach Jim Schwartz and several other Lions players disputed charges from Falcons players Roddy White and Todd McClure that Suh and Cliff Avril taunted and even kicked at quarterback Matt Ryan after he appeared to hurt his ankle in the third quarter.
"They are going to say what they want to say," Suh said. "It's a he said-she said thing. I know for a fact that if Cliff or anybody else kicked an opposing quarterback there would have been a riot. If that would have happened to Matt Stafford, somebody kicked him, hell would have broke loose."
Suh had just watched film of the play before addressing the media.
"Me and Cliff were standing next to each other because there are three (Falcons) on the two of us. So that's null and void. That kills it right there," he said.
As for whether Suh said anything to Ryan when he was down — a fact that even Ryan disputed after the game — Suh said, "I am not even near the quarterback. How am I going to trash talk somebody that has a medical staff all around him? That's their own problem. It's karma for the bad stuff they've done in the past. Their offensive line hurt their own quarterback."
Suh, Avril and middle linebacker Stephen Tulloch all said the Falcons offensive line thrives on playing a physical, some would say dirty, style of football. Tulloch said their lineman were chop blocking throughout the game. Defensive tackle Sammie Hill injured his ankle on a chop block.
"I watched film all week of things their offensive line has done and is coached to do," Suh said. "It's not anything that hasn't been said before. We have a 15-play reel that shows everything they've done and then there were plays that happened in that game.
"What am I supposed to do, just let it happen? Nothing is done about it. Until something is done about it I am going to continue to protect myself and continue to play as hard as I can. If I am not going to protect myself, nobody else is."
Suh was asked what prompted the Falcons players to make the accusations.
"Maybe because the media continues to call me a dirty player and yet can't prove it," he said.

You know the steelers are going to lose don't you? Brady always destroys the steelers.
You could also call it "karma" that Suh's own QB is day-to-day with an ankle injury.....

Perhaps Jahvid Best's concussion is also karma?

They never did, the quote that says that inserted [Ryan's] into it, making it sound like they actually kicked Ryan's feet. If he did, why would we only be hearing it from a WR, rather than from 12 different angles in HD and every columnist in the country?
Because it didn't happen.
It doesn't mean there wasn't some trash talking away from the play, and they kicked their own feet saying 'get him off the field', etc.
The insertion of context took it out of context. Suh neither kicked Ryan, but White also did not claim he did.
This whole feud between the Lions and the Falcons is all a bunch of BS. I just want to see the Lions get their act together before they face Tebow and the Broncos on Sunday.

Not a single team went out to see T.O. work out today. JT the Brick said on twitter:
"...there is alot of no name receivers all over the NFL who have jobs that could not carry T.O.'s jock. He gets opens and makes plays!"
Yes he has a diva complex, and a bad one sometimes, but for teams that have struggled all year to score, he would have came cheap. He is a poor man's version of Plaxico with less skills and more diva...IMHO.
...and I will add to that, for all I can remember, he has never gotten in trouble with the law.
