Samson talked about facing bigger nose tackles

About playing against nose tackles that can outweigh him by 45+ pounds, Samson said:
''We have to use our quickness and take them places they don't want to be." (MH)

MH Note: "Among Sunday's key matchups: Dolphins left tackle Jake Long against Baltimore linebacker Terrell Suggs (eight sacks), and 300-pound center Samson Satele on Baltimore's 345-pound Haloti Ngata. Satele has struggled at times against much heavier defensive tackles (including Ngata on Oct. 19), but he played well against New York's 349-pound Kris Jenkins and improved by studying how similar-sized centers take on bigger nose tackles."
