Packers outside linebacker Clay Matthews has six sacks in the first two games, which matches his total for the entire 2011 season. At this rate, Matthews would shatter the NFL single-season sack record.
“He’s playing awfully well,” said Packers defensive coordinator Dom Capers on Friday.

Matthews burst out of the gate in 2010 with six sacks in his first two games and finished with 13.5 for the season.

At his current pace, Matthews would generate a league-record 48 sacks. He’s a little less than one-third of the way to the Packers’ single-season sack record. Here are the best single-season sackers in Packers history, with sacks becoming an official NFL individual statistic in 1982:
1. Tim Harris, 19.5 (1989)
2. Reggie White, 16 (1998)
3. Aaron Kampman, 15.5 (2006)
4. Ezra Johnson, 14.5 (1983)

Harris’ total of 19.5 ranks tied for ninth all-time in NFL annals. Here is a list of the top-10 single season sackers in the NFL, according to Pro-Football-Reference.com:
1. Michael Strahan (30) 22.5 2001 NYG
2. Mark Gastineau (28) 22.0 1984 NYJ
Jared Allen (29) 22.0 2011 MIN
4. Chris Doleman+ (28) 21.0 1989 MIN
Reggie White+ (26) 21.0 1987 PHI



whoa. It is way too early to project single season records. Anything could happen. Most of them not good.
Let's say he has gotten off to a great start and we hope it continues.
The rookies Perry and Worthy who are suppose to take the heat off CM3 have not even gotten up to speed yet. Maybe when they do Matthews will get 4 sacks a game. :-"

The article mentioned this, but he had the same amoutn 2 years ago, then had about 1 for every 2 games the remainder of the season. he's had a great 12% of the season, but I'll be a little more excited if he keeps this pace for 14, hell, even 4 more games.

It's great that he's doing much better this year, but as was already stated, it will mean alot more if he can keep it up all season.
Not that i'm upset about his great start. In fact, i'm thrilled about it!

2.5 sacks against Staley was extremely good, because he is a pro bowler. 3.5 sacks against Webb is like beating a one armed man at a game of pool. Until Clay test positive for an illegal substance, maybe we should cut him some slack. Kevin Williams has become pretty pedestrian since they took his muscle juices away, hasn't he?

How about you research guru's look up the Tackles that he is going to face the rest of the year...
Teamwork is what the Green Bay Packers were all about. They didn't do it for individual glory. They did it because they loved one another. -Vince Lombardi

Muscle milk is a terrible quality protein supplement by the way. I'm sure NFL players are aware of that.

Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : beast, I thought the designate return from IR players had to be IR at cutdowns to 53, not before

beast (8-Aug) : But the Packers would have to use one for their return from IR spots on him, when they cut down to 53.
