Gee what was your first clue? Was it that no one in the history of the NFL has ever come remotely close to 48 sacks?

I do appreciate your enthusiasm however.

Here's to CM3 getting 4 in Chicago! :thumbright:

I wouldn't mind seeing Favre get sacked a few times, but I certainly don't want him to hurt Favre.

Yes, I still have some love for the old man.

He probably could've picked someone better to try picking on than our one player who has been virtually perfect so far this season

Correct me if I am wrong....

In two games Mr. Perfect has 12 tackles. Of these twelve 6 are QB sacks, which leaves 6 tackles in the run support category. He also officially has one recorded pass defense, one......

I'm not "Picking" on him. I have been hearing wisconsin sports media outlets saying crazy shit like he is one of the top five Green Bay linebackers of all time. Please.....after 22 games.

What I think Capers is doing with him is using him as a spy on the opposition's QB, he rarely drops into pass coverage. He may break the sack record but as far as Matthews being "virtually perfect"?, um...... No.

Not to mention I don't think I've seen a single missed tackle from him. That is a long way from "kind of blows in run support"

How often did Strahan drop into coverage?

Curious what your thoughts are on what plays you have seen Matthews not execute on? If you say that he is not "virtually perfect" then that must mean you have seen plays that he messed up on. Please do share. Also, I don't think you understand the concept of what a QB spy is, and you'd never do it with an OLB. A spy backer would be an ILB since they could reach both sidelines on any play. And if we were playing a QB spy scheme than we defintely wouldn't have given up the yards to Vick, and you don't spy an immobile QB like Trent Edwards. And also, go ahead and watch the game again from this week, I saw Matthews drop into coverage at least 6 snaps. Considering the amount of defensive snaps, I wouldn't call that rare. Go ahead and actually back up your claims next time you post, thanks. Too early to claim him as a top LB in Packers history I agree with. The rest of your post could use some evidence to back up though.

6 sacks in two games projects out to 48 on the season. The all time record is 22.5, and it took Favre to lay down for Strahan to get that.
I don't think Clay is gonna maintain this pace, but he's definitely got a shot at the record. Damn he's good.

Isn't Sampson a one trick pony? I mean he gets sacks, but he kind of blows on run support

I would guess that is the only reason for the applause points.

If Clay is in the back field feasting on QBs, why does he have to cover?

Clay is averaging over 1 sack per game and he has not played a full season as a starter yet.

I want to go out like my Grandpa did. Peacefully in his sleep.
