151 renton wash seattle seahawks defensive lineman michael bennett is a fan of neither the inflated market for nfl quarterbacks nor the way some of them react to getting hit bennett made both of those points clear with his distinctive flair during an interview with brock and salk on 710 espn seattle on tuesday first among bennetts grievances was the miami dolphins ryan tannehill who has a 2325 record in three seasons and signed a sixyear extension worth about 95 million in may quarterback is the only position in the nfl where you could be mediocre and get paid at every other position you cant be mediocre bennett said if i was ryan tannehill and the most games i ever won was seven how could you get a 100 million for that i guess thats the value of the position and then its like youre sitting at home and theres breaking news and it says that brian hoyer is the quarterback of the texans im like who cares thats not breaking news its really not breaking news next up was the philadelphia eagles sam bradford who has been at the center of a recent debate about quarterbacks getting hit after handoffs bradford was hit low by ravens linebacker terrell suggs after a handoff during a preseason game on saturday drawing a roughingthepasser penalty that the nfl later said wasnt warranted theres some mediocre quarterbacks in the nfl that make a lot of money bennett said you take a guy like sam bradford hes never played really in the last three years but hes made more money than most guys in the nfl bennett then referenced the bradfordsuggs play from saturdays game and the debate it has sparked then quarterbacks get protected more than any other player i mean he gets hit in his knees and hes about to cry bennett said making a whimpering sound they hit me in my legs everybody gets hit in their legs every play somebody tries to hit me in my legs so what makes him different what makes his life better than mine ive got kids ive got stuff i like to do on the weekend but because he gets hit in his legs he gets a flag he gets up with a sad face like the world just ended because he got hit i mean you got hit in an nfl game who cares get back up and be like good job bennett gave a tip of the cap to the quarterbacks who dont react that way i respect tom brady because when tom brady gets hit he gets up and is like good job good hit he gets back in the huddle and he holds his own like a man bennett said weve got guys in the nfl crying because they get hit oh suggs hit me and im running the readoption bennett also credited peyton manning and cam newton for the toughness they show after being
