So in the first 9 games of this season Clay Matthews manages a paltry 3.5 sacks, an embarrassing number for a once feared pass rusher. In those first 9 games Mathews was frequently used closer to the lines interior often playing head over the OT. Then starting in week 13 against the Buccs Capers finally starts lining Matthews up outside in the 6, 7 and wide 9 tech, as night follows day Matthews explodes for 3 sacks against the Buccs 1 against the Browns and had Kizer dead to rights for a second but Kizer responded with a desperation heave for a pick as Matthews wrapped him up. If you want an indictment of Capers here's one, Capers prioritized his schemes integrity, misdirection with the possibility of stunts and twists, over the effective use of his personnel. Matthews isn't washed up, he just hasn't been used very well in the pass-rushing role of late. Adjust the scheme to let him attack from outside on obvious passing downs and not only will Matthews make more of an impact but the rest of the defense will look better as well.
