Hats off to Clay Matthews

[Dirigo]

4 sacks so far this season.

Helped pressure Mayfield into an errant pass that led to the JJ pick.

He’s been a difference maker for the defense.

Very happy he is on our team.

 

[wmc540]

Already eclipsed his sack total from last year

Prediction: by the end of this season, people in Green Bay are going to be saying "why the f did we let him go?"

 

[HE WITH HORNS]

I didn't know he had 4, that would be sick if he managed 20 sacks this year, which he is on pace for, haha.

 

[bubbaramfan]

clay and the Rams D really put the heat on in the 4th qtr

 

[Zodi]

Donald, Fowler, Matthews, Brockers. Pick ya poison.

 

[LouisvilleRam]

Big play Clay

 

[jjab360]

The outside pressure we've been lacking the past few years. Him and Fowler's improved play have made a huge difference. This whole defense looks solid tbh, I can't think of a single weak spot through the first 3 weeks.

It sure seems like Clay has knows where to put himself to clean up QBs when the pocket breaks down. With Donald applying so much pressure up the middle he seems like a perfect compliment to him.

 

[LouisvilleRam]

Imagine you're a QB going up to the line of scrimmage on a obvious passing down and you look to the left and you see Fowler then you look to the right and you see Mathews and then right in the middle of them you see Big #99.

 

[Classic Rams]

And the Packers had no room for him. Smdh. Go Clay!!!!

 

[DR RAM]

He has been so great.

 

[Dagonet]

He's from a great football family. I wanted us to draft him back in the day but no way we could. Glad he is here. Cheers. We need a beer mug.. lol

I predicted 10 for him this year. All of a sudden that looks low...

He's not only given us a good edge rush but his contain vs the run has been elite. The dude manhandles TEs, RBs, WRs, etc and can hold his own vs the RTs without giving up space.

Just keep rotating him and keep him fresh for the playoffs.

He's been a pleasant surprise.

Definitely need to keep him rested, nice thing Ebukam has flashed when given a chance. Shoot I don't see Obo seeing the field because of the players in front of him

Yeah and it's a good problem with Obo. We really have a deep edge room.

Ebukam was the reason we stuffed the Saints on the 4th and 1. And he played well tonight to include a tipped pass. He's a grinder, really like him.

We definitely look so different on D this year. Regular season Suh and Joyner really held us back

ps forgot to mention our Dline coach Henderson

 

[TexasRam]

He plays the run well also.

Looks like his Pro Bowl years. A force vs pass and rush.

I was not excited with the signing. I recall Fisher signing vets on the downside of their careers and it didn’t work out too well, Dexter Coakley ring a bell?

I wasn’t excited about Weddle either. What I overlooked is Weddle and Matthews are very intelligent football players and Wade is good at optimizing talent. They seem to be a perfect fit.
