![]() ![]() Review of video shows that Suh charged in unblocked and forced Stafford to hurry and throw an incomplete pass late in the first quarter with the Rams leading, 3-0. So it was Suh – not Stafford – who got the 15-yard penalty for unsportsmanlike conduct at a crucial moment in Sunday’s 30-27 Rams’ victory in Tampa that put Stafford one victory away from the Super Bowl. And they sometimes consider the reputation. Sports officials usually penalize the retaliation and not the provocation. In the past, he has stomped and choked his foes. season and with his fourth team, has cooled his act in recent years but still carries the reputation as one of the game’s dirtiest players. Stafford, now in his 13th NFL season, remains one of Detroit’s most popular athletes in his first year in Los Angeles. Both veterans should know better than to lose their composure at a bad time. Both men are former first-round picks of the Lions and they were Detroit’s team leaders in a different decade. This personal clash had added focus for football fans around Detroit. However, they did see Suh tower over Stafford and glower down at him and then point his finger in Stafford’s face to vow “I’m going to fuck you up” (according to lip-readers on Twitter). No, the officials didn’t see Stafford, the Los Angeles Rams’ quarterback menace the groin area of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ defensive tackle Suh. “You see him kick me?” Suh shouted at the referee. The game is called “football,” so Matt Stafford lifted his left, cleated foot up near the, uh, private footballs of Ndamukong Suh.
