Ahtyba Rubin is the best nose tackle right now imo.

McCourty is making a great case for himself, but Suh is still the pick here.

I posted this very same thread a few weeks ago and people laughed at me. Well whos laughing now! HAHAHA

What do you mean? Suh was invisible after the first quarter

Suh didn't have a great game overall today, but he is having a phenomenal season.

Suh is leading all interior linemen in the WHOLE LEAGUE in sacks. Granted sacks are mostly a sexy stat, but he ate BJGE in the backfield today too. Ed Reed has 4 picks in 4 games, and being so far ahead makes picks kinda a garbage stat as some point too right? Both are having great years but Suh has expectations and a team he is holding up, give the man his due.

WTFingF are you talking about?
Suh made 2 plays.
How does Suh starting for a team that hasnt won a playoff game in decades have higher expecatations tham McCourty starting for the team of the just compelted decade that has the best record in the NFL?
How is Sh 'holding up' a team that is 2-9????????????

And so is McCourty.

#90 Suh is a freaking good player. If the season ended today he would be the most suitable candidate imo, with McCourty and Thomas trailing behind him. But...there is still football to be played and I must say McCourty is balling his tail off right now. Anyway you mix it, McCourty was a slam dunk pick that I wasn't too high on. Shows how much I know.

Not saying he isn't. Suh's season so far is just better. McCourty has closed the gap, but he would have to finish strong and Suh would need to hit a rookie wall to allow McCourty to overtake Suh. That isn't a swipe at McCourty at all, but Suh has been dominant for most of the year while McCourty had some early growing pains.

One thing we can say, so far McCourty was a brilliant pick by Belichick and company and appears to be the best CB to come out of this year's draft and #2 isn't even very close.

The preseason battle between Pat and Jets fan of who got the better CB right now appears to be a joke since McCourty right now is one of the best CBs in the NFL right now (not just rookie CBs) while Wilson is struggling. The Browns might have been better off drafting McCourty over Joe Haden too.
