Vea & Suh: The Best
August 24th, 2020
Underrated?
One former NFL offensive lineman believes the most underrated defensive tackle in the NFL is a guy who is long in the tooth.
NFL Network analyst Brian Baldinger just could not stop crowing about the play last year of Ndamukong Suh. Baldinger, as he likes to do, broke down a video of Suh’s highlights and then Twittered it out.
Suh had a rap with the Lions and later the Rams of taking plays off. Baldinger showed in his Suth highlights that reputation is just nonsense.
This is a fun clip to watch.
@Buccaneers @NdomukongSuh is a throwback DT who lines up every week of every year while playing 77% of snaps in ‘19 and 80% of snaps in ‘18. Next to @VitaVea they are the best tandem of DT’s in the NFL. #PhysicalPhreaks #BaldysBreakdowns pic.twitter.com/DhAdRBm15u

The eye in the sky NEVA lies…. now with a healthy EDGE rush tandom on Shaq/JPP this Defense can truly be special this year.
All Facts
Go Bucs

Suh is a very important cog in our defense..glad we resigned him.

Sign earl thomas and vet minimum brown…it’s a all in year

Good stuff, Joe.

@Bucsgotachance
Two of the best programs in the NFL want nothing to do with Earl Thomas. His play no longer trumps the nonsense that he causes in the locker room. The Ravens are arguably the best evaluators in the NFL, and they want nothing to do with him after one year.

Best word to described Suh is violence. If you watch his hands, Suh throws and smacks around lineman so well, it’s almost impossible to grab hold of him.

Our entire Defense returns…..we add Winfield…..same coaches…….the shortened off-season will have minimal impact on our Defense…..looking for it to be very, very good this year.

Nice plays but, that run-down of the WR (Cookes?, the speedster?) was quite impressive.
August 24th, 2020 at 7:26 am
Favorite player on the team

With Vita and Suh anchoring the inside & JPP and ‘Shaq on the outside, they help form a legit front 7. Just hope the secondary can pull their weight. One thing that is going to help the Defense. They will not be 7-10 down multiple times before they catch their breath because of a turnover. In the Houston game they were down 10-0 and the Defense had not even given up a first down yet. GO BUCS!!!

The two best up front DLineMen this year
They will destroy

I remember being so angry when we just missed out on drafting this guy and were forced to drafted that other 93 right after….
August 24th, 2020 at 8:49 am
Suh was 3rd on team in QB hits behind Barrett and JPP.
He is “essential “ worker on the D.

World, meet WOOD!
August 24th, 2020 at 9:32 am
Totally agree with Baldy. Big Suh fan! Wanted him on this team since he was drafted before Tampa could get him. We’re fortunate he ended up a Buc in the end. Great player.
August 24th, 2020 at 9:40 am
Hey look, I was a GMC defender for years. I still don’t think he’s a “bad” player BUT, watching Suh play last year….freakin’ forget about it!!!
I have happily eaten crow almost every snap Suh plays for us. Beast! A TRUE “Beast”!
August 24th, 2020 at 9:56 am
Suh and JPP snap counts every year are just special. There is a reason we got those seasoned professionals and our defense is better.
August 24th, 2020 at 10:20 am
Saw the critic on Suh and Vea by a former interior defensive tackle from the Bucs. It is true that they aren’t primarily penetrators to collapse the pocket. It is true that they are both excellent at holding up the offensive lineman, then rag dolling them to stop the run at the line of scrimmage. We can let Khalil Davis come in on passing downs to get more pressure, if his quick twitch is as they say. Everybody’s happy.

BringBucsBack – Agree, man he turned on the burners running down that player.
I saw on the Bucs site that the defense had 359 QB pressures last year, most in the NFL. That’s over 22 per game. That’s because the running game is getting shut down and pressure on the QB on throwing downs is coming from all directions, center, edges and LBs. Hope it continues this year.
August 24th, 2020 at 10:42 am
Suh and Vea together, make it very hard to run on us. I agree that we have the best pair of defensive tackles in the NFL.
August 24th, 2020 at 11:38 am
Sapp is one of my favorite players ever, but I’ll take Baldy’s opinions of our dt’s over his any day. Baldy is fun to listen to and should get his own show. 😜
August 24th, 2020 at 12:38 pm
Do your remember the show “AFC and NFC Playbook”? It was on the NFL Network years ago. Baldy and other analysts and talking heads would break down conference film and talk about match-ups each week. I loved it. Wish they’d bring it back. Baldy was one of the best.
August 24th, 2020 at 1:25 pm
Impressed with that hustle by both on that last play.
August 24th, 2020 at 1:26 pm
Thats right!!!! Gholston blowing up too, then rook KD…pshhh! Man Im so stoked. CANT WAIT!
Aints going down in a blowout in that first game…im even giving them 10 points on bets to guys at work…ive found two dummies so far for $20 each lol…but most are staying away from that bet because they know better!
August 24th, 2020 at 8:06 pm
Watching him run down that WR at the end!!! That got me pumped!
Really glad we were able to keep our D-line together besides Nassib. And I think out of anyone, he was the easiest to replace. Well done for a change, Licht.
August 24th, 2020 at 11:37 pm
Gholston- cant be moved.
Suh- cant be moved.
Vea- cant be moved.
Best down lineman of a 3-4 since the Steelers.
Our 3 pillars!!
August 25th, 2020 at 12:07 am
Those two in the middle with Shaq and JPP healthy and playing the full year… Bring in Gholston …
It is a great line. I expect more consistent pressure on the quarterback. Mainly I want to see VEA take a leap forward and be the disruptive beast in the middle we know he can be week in and week out
