Presence, not statistics, is what makes Suh so valuable

There’s no question that on paper, the Los Angeles Rams’ defensive line is the best unit in the league. However, on-paper talent is wildly different than on-field performance, and the difference should be the grain of salt when we talk about DT Ndamukong Suh.

No one is questioning Suh’s talent. Even at 31, Suh’s intensity and strength is still in peak condition and there’s little evidence to suggest he’s slowing down.

When Suh came into the league in 2010, he racked up 10 sacks and 48 tackles, which is an impressive season even for a veteran, let alone a rookie.
