Clay Matthews: We've Got All the Pieces in Place
The Packers linebacker looked ahead to the future in an interview with ESPN.
Green Bay Packers linebacker Clay Matthews was interviewed on ESPN's SportsCenter on Sunday, and predictably, the disappointment of the NFC Championship game loss came up with reporter Lisa Salters.
"It hurts, especially the older you get in your career," said Matthews. "You realize how difficult it is to get to the NFC Championship game, let alone the Super Bowl."
The Packers linebacker also looked ahead to the future.
"We've got all the pieces in place," said Matthews.
What wasn't addressed in-depth, however, was why Matthews didn't play the final few drives of regulation in the loss to the Seattle Seahawks:

I don't give a shit what he has to say right now, unless it's addressing his conspicuous absence last Sunday, when we needed him.
Sherman was playing with one arm hanging... and Clay is living it up at the PB.

I thought he said that he was on the sideline due to a multitude of issues that the trainers were able to work out by the time OT came around.
I read that as "we thought the game was won, and since I was dinged up they didn't want me to go back in and risk further injury in garbage time, because Super Bowl. I mean, it's not like they're going to score a TD, convert an onside kick, and then score another TD when they only have 5 minutes left."
Why he waited till OT to come back in instead of after the onside kick, who knows? We'll probably never get a straight answer. The whole team seemed to be in disorganized disbelief after that.
Hey, at least we got to see Jordy catch a TD in the post season last night.

Hey he got tired from Mike putting on the pass rush becaues we have no pass rush, and Dom Capers putting him back in the middle because we lack speed at ILB.

Have you noticed that there hasn't been a press conference yet? Or why? I realize that you're especially entitled and know more than everyone, but STFU till you actually find something out.

I agree Hank , it's very sad the way Vikings fans always attack the Packers , I don't see it much from Beard and Lions fans but Vikings fans never let up I almost feel bad for them , watch when the Packers cut or don't resign players how fast the Vilings will look to sign them . Very sad indeed.
