That's so sad. The Ravens are such a classy organization. This couldn't in any way be karma...

I'm with Woodley, it sucks when players get injured like this, even a division rivalOriginally Posted by polamalubeast
playing the ravens certainly won't be the same without him, especially when he's probably the best player on their defense

Suggs would have made a good Steeler. I got to admit except for the Raven thing I like pretty much everything about him. But he is a Raven. He wasn't taken out with a cheap shot, nor is this injury life threatening, hopefully not even career ending. So I think I'll sign on to Woodley's sentiment and wish him a speedy recovery. Can't wait for the Steelers to kick his ass on the field again in 2013.
No doubt though this is a big blow for the Ravens in 2012. He's their best defensive player by far imo.

this is a huge blow that defense who alrdy lost a starting lb during Fa and with ray lewis being older than dirt.. thats 3 out of the 4 starting lb's out.. this defense could be hurting a lot and with ed reed being as old as ray ray.. shit just got real for their d.. the only hope of glimmer will be upshaw and him being a beast from day 1..

I'd rather beat him on the field that have an injury beat him.
if it was anyone else, i may feel bad. i thought we was mouthy thug trash before he said this but definately after: "we don’t need God on our sidelines,” Suggs said in january. screw him.edont feel bad for him or the ratbirds a bit. karma's a bitch thuggs.

Ravens can absorb loss of Terrell Suggs
Of course Jamison Hensley's downplaying it.
The above was in the comments section under the column(GSAPS 2 is the poster's name)and sums it up so perfectly that I had to borrow it.I'll summarize the article for you guys:
Ravens will go 19-0 but the average margin of victory will only be 19.6 as opposed to a predicted 26.7 with Suggs.

or that Kindle/Kruger all of the sudden emerge as nfl starters
that's three second round lbs, they gotta hit on one at some point

Yep Upshaw will be a starter this year regardless...and then the other side will be between Kruger and Kindle...their young guys gotta step up...hahaha

Ill drink to that
Latest report states it happened on Saturday during conditioning drills... partial tear and rehab will have him back by mid-season... we may see him line up against the steelers after all this year.
I have been a Steelers faithful since I was a 6 year old... my mom has pictures of me dressed in my steelers uniform back in '76... yep I'm old but a diehard... I understand defense and recognize offense, if you get it you get it.

NY Sports radio is reporting the injury occured it in Arizona playing Basketball
Didn't Suggs say on TV that he and the Ravens had a bounty on certain Steelers players? If so good for him, eat that Karma!

I only actually wish injuries on the Patriots, so it's too bad to hear about this. As others have said, even if it's a division rival, I'd rather everyone be at full strength and have a go at it, and may the best team win. Bad luck strikes at random.

Wishing Suggs a full and speedy recovery.
We will beat them this year with or without Suggs.

I don't like hearing about players suffering an injury, even if it is one of my least favorite players in the NFL. I rather watch the Steelers shut him down than have him get injured

I never wish for an injury to another team's player, and it sucks to hear that.
But, if it HAD to happen to a linebacker of an NFL team, I'm glad it's a Raven's linebacker, as opposed to say, a Lion's linebacker.
Regardless though, gotta say good luck and hope for a full recovery.

I'd rather play Ratturds at full strength. Suggs is 30, so he ain't getting any younger. They will have to see how Upshaw does against our new OL
It's not like he was shot to death in an armed robbery or something. He's a douche, who does douchey things, and the karma came back and bit him.
Maybe it will teach him a lesson.

Pretty much, yeah.

hmmm...well, I hate to be gleeful about other players injuries at this point....tempting bad karma and all. I don't relax about that stuff until I see our own guys get safely through training camp.
But once the season starts...

What a homer. You can make a case that Suggs is equal to Troy on the Steelers defense. If we lost our best player we would not flinch, but it would be a tough season on defense.http://espn.go.com/blog/afcnorth/pos...suggs#comments

The Ravens can't overcome this injury easily. Their other real pass rushing threats consist of Paul Kruger, Sergio Kindle and Courtney Upshaw. Kruger has been OK, Kindle has been a bust and Upshaw is a rookie.
Try telling that to the Ravens homer extraordinaire Hensley.
I don't want to see injuries, even for players I dislike a lot (Sucks, Lewis, _________insert a Ratbird player name), but karma strikes the ones who deserve it, and T. Sucks is a douche
On the other hand Harbitch will have another excuse to whine and cry.
