This is going to be a very exciting matchup to watch. One of the league’s premier Defensive Ends vs arguably the best Left Tackle. Since being drafted by Cleveland in 2007, Thomas has been their best, most consistent player as well as an elite talent in the NFL. Thomas is the only offensive lineman to make the Pro Bowl in each of his first eight seasons and has never missed a game. On the other side we have “Black Lightning” Robert Quinn. Quinn has 49 sacks since 2011 and has developed a reputation as a top pass rusher. Quinn’s speed, agility, and his quick first step make him a desirable matchup against Thomas, but we will see who wins this battle on the field between these two beasts.
