This is a dumb question. Suh has the contract. Someone thinks he is worth it, or they wouldn't pay. Question unecesary.

Given he is a beast AND demands double teams, he should earn 2X of the average DT.

He has the raw, physical talent to justify that, but NO if he can not shutdown his Personal Foul problems and play smarter.

by the very definition of worth. an athlete is "Worth" what someone is willing to pay. If Miami is willing to pay 118 Million over 6 years for Suh than by definition he is worth it. You may not like it, but he is technically worth it.

Why shouldn't he be? Of all the Pro linemen I've seen last year, Mr. Suh has them all been in every category of defensive skills, strength and endurance.

You have to put with his antics sometimes but I feel he is one of the very best in the league.

No NFL player is "worth" this kind of money, especially 60 M guaranteed...

no one is. He just got some of his what would have been good teammates put on the chopping block. Glad to see he getting money but you can tell Superbowl is not on his mind.

Suh is a beast but getting two good tackles for less money could pay off and mitigate risks of injury etc. Miami needs a QB.

Is it reasonable to consider Nebraska a potential playoff team in 2025?

They are as much a potential playoff team as Arizona State and Indiana were last year. There is no harm is fans dreaming big. A team with a recent history like Nebraska is going to put it together this year. Why not the Huskers?

They have a schedule that gets to the year 3 Matt Rhule 10 wins. If they can hang with Penn St. then they could be in the conversation as a 10-2, 11-1 team.

Anything can happen, but up until now, Rhule hasn't shown that he can get the job done. I hope I'm wrong, but I just can't by the hype. Show me on the field.

So tired of delusional preseason talk. How about a winning conference record and a bowl win.

They haven’t done anything on the field to warrant that expectation. But there is nothing wrong with the team setting it as a goal and striving to reach that goal.

Immanuel Kant would say no, but he had a very strict definition of reason. I can only imagine him pooh-poohing the Huskers because Rhule is compulsed to pass the ball on clear running downs. Afraid to actually hand the ball to the fullback on 3rd and 1. And instead is in the shotgun. NO THEY KANT!

Thry’ll be better this year, but I think 9-3 or 8-4 are likely which keeps them out of contention this year. My hope is that by year 4 under Rhule will finally get them ibto the playoff picture

He was a tackling machine with a less talented defensive line in front of him at Georgia Southern. He will have bigger gaps and less linemen reaching him IMO

Dick Butkus is the best Big Ten linebacker. But Watson-Trent might be the best ever with a hyphen in his name. Jack Ham is the best Big Ten linebacker to have the middle name Raphael. LaVar Arrington is the best to have a capital V inexpliccably inserted into his frist name. The list goes on.
