About a month ago, an article was written that defensive tackle was in Tampa Bay to collect checks and was in cruise control. That article was met with a ton of hostility and tribalism from fans of the Buccaneers. ESPN’s Seth Walder mapped out the success of defensive tackles around the league using Next Gen Stats.
This graph by Walder shows two separate categories on the x and y axis: the x axis displays how often a defensive tackle wins off of the line of scrimmage. The x axis shows that Suh is winning against blockers at an average below the league average; many will say this is because Suh is being double teamed often.
