Of Course Clay Matthews is Happy!

Matthews had to get those sacks, you know, and you can’t get those sacks playing inside linebacker!

Except that Matthews had more sacks in the eight games he played inside than he did in the eight he played outside. In fact, his overall statistics improved dramatically. What, through eight games looked like a garbage season statistically, turned into a Pro Bowl one.

Despite that, we’re pretty sure Matthews still wants to play outside linebacker.

Whether it’s toeing the company line or he’s actually come to the realization that he can affect the game in more ways from his new position, Matthews gave the gung-ho, team-first answer about it on Thursday.
