I'm on a general NFL board elsewhere and Bills and Eagles fans are currently writing in a thread about how Matthews is possibly the best defensive player in the NFL. Chris Carter compared him to Lawrence Taylor on ESPN's game day recap. :shock:

He's played two games, one of which was against probably the worst offensive line in the NFL. Not sold on the fact that he'll break any records just yet. Certainly love the guy though.

I think he'll end up having 12 - 14 sacks this season. This being the NFL and all, teams will figure out how to stop him, especially since we don't have a threat on the other side. Even if that means roll outs opposite his direction.

LOL.. here I thought this might be another non convoluted thread by NonStop.. taking a small sampling of statistics and broadly applying them forward.

Apparently it is spreading.. lol.

Now seriously though.. watching him closely he is using leverage better this season along with much improved hand play in keeping separation. Add that to his drive, you are seeing an athletic improved version of his father... and that is saying a mouthful.

Glad to see him adding to his game and not just worrying about his celebration thereafter.

If he keeps up the impact plays.. he can do that freaking jig for all care.. he at least gets it by providing an impact play before some display... unlike his running mate in 56. Although.. Barnett seems to have matured past that nonsense after a routine play to be fair.

We do, sort off. Cullen Jenkins. He's a Richard Seymour-like guy. Someone who can played DE in both the 4-3 and 3-4 as a superb pass rusher.

I agree, though, that his production will go down. We played the Bills and the Eagles with a 1st year QB.

Like I said in my last post, Mario Williams, Dwight Freeney, James Harrison, Mathias Kiwanuka, Robert Mathis and Juqua Parker are on pace for the single season record, as well. It just means very little right now.

We do, however, play a couple of teams that Clay could get some sacks in. Twice against the Bears, the Lions, the Vikings, once against the Dolphins, Falcons etc. Some of those teams have some good LTs, but have questions at RT.

Clay is a BEAST in SO many ways, and believe me I am not dogging him at all, but Cullen, B.J. and Ryan are doing what they're supposed to be doing as well, and that helps. Just to make my point...Clay is a BEAST!!!

Zero, fire up the jersey buying thread, I think we have some takers on a #52!

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.

I'm not sure what you're talking about. He's played well against the run. Are you joking?

Oh, that explains it. I thought he might be a fan of another team, then I saw that he had 22 applaud points and thought nah, he must be a Packer fan. He probably could've picked someone better to try picking on than our one player who has been virtually perfect so far this season. A dropped interception is the only mistake I can think of by Matthews so far.

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : *winning MVP

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Funny observation I've heard: Carson Wentz was on the sideline for both Eagles Super Bowl wins w/guys supposed to be his back up winning

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : NFL thought it would get more attention week preceding Super Bowl.

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Yes, the Pro Bowl. It was played Sunday before Super Bowl from 2010-2022

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : pro bowl

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : From 2010 to 2022, it was played on the Sunday before the Super Bowl

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : They moved it to the BYE week before Super Bowl several years ago.

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : it was always after the SB.....

beast (10-Feb) : Though I stop following pro bowl years ago

beast (10-Feb) : I thought the pro game was before the Super Bowl?

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : ok now for the Pro Bowl Game in Hawaii

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : If I was Philly I would try to end it instead of punting it

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : VICTORY! We have (moral) victory!

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Hey they mentioned that we 3-peted

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : seems to me the 49ers should have traded Aiyuk when they had the chance

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : if the Eagles get it down to the 1, do they Tush Push or give it to Barkley?

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : 49ers have a money problem if they want to sign their QB

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Wait for real? Didn't he just get an extension two years ago?

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : 49ers gonna trade Deebo. Interesting

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Replays always never seem to show the holdings

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Great throw by Hurts

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Where Carter falls prey to bad off the field influences (to be clear, not saying he'd clip someone though)

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Had Carter not gone to Philly were they already had a lot of old college friends, he ends up in a similar spot to Aaron Hernandez

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : I think some of his coaches told scouts to stay away

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : the street racing incident+conditioning and motivation problems

beast (10-Feb) : Then Carter was street racing, where the other car crashed and people died... and other teams were scared to pick Carter for some reason

beast (10-Feb) : I think the Saints traded up, giving their next year 1st to the Eagles, and then they sucked and Eagles got the 10th overall pick

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : wtf Barkley?

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Getting Carter and Nolan Smith in the first round in 2023 was pretty darn good

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : for some reason i'm thinking of a draft where the Eagles where in the mid 20s and a top player fell all the way to them

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think so. I would need to look it up. Think it may have been Carolina's pick.

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : i'm not sure who i'm thinking of now

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : oh fuck me i messed that up

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Jordan Davis was 13th overall

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Carter was 9th overall

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles had 15th and 10th selections, moved to 13 and 9 to get Davis and Carter back to back

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles traded up for Carter, didn't they?

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Obviously he was a huge risk but getting a top 5 talent on the dline in the mid 20s is fortuitous

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Jalen Carter falling into their lap certainly helps

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : And we could only wish to have this type of D

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : It's not like Philly has had low draft picks, but has managed to get themselves a top notch pass rush. We spend so much draft capital of D

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : another crap halftime show

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think it is over, but then I think of Atlanta and want Philly to go in with the same intensity in the second half
