07:39 AM ET 09.22 | The first player in Packers history to record consecutive three-sack games, Clay Matthews is also coming off a 10-sack rookie season. It was he who sacked the Eagles' Kevin Kolb from behind, stripping the ball and driving him into the ground so hard that the quarterback wound up leaving the game (and missing the next week) with a concussion. ... Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers said he believes Matthews belongs in the mix of the league's top five pass rushers, counting him among the likes of Indianapolis' Dwight Freeney, Minnesota's Jared Allen, Dallas' DeMarcus Ware and Chicago's Julius Peppers.

There are two groups of pass rushers. and they are not the same. The DE is one group and the LBs are a totally different group. To compare them is silly.

A.J. Hawk doesn't like the Defense that Green Bay runs these days. He's been vary vocal about it.

All of today's threads are about NFC teams.
Whatever happened to "fair and balanced," huh? C'mon, the NFC West is just as dysfunctional as the NFC East.

Clay is lighting up OLines and igniting QB controversies in his wake. He'll be going for the hat trick this monday. Nitschke would be proud...
