Clay Matthews: "We beat ourselves...in all four losses"

[ATLBound]

Really? Because I could've sworn it was Tyson Clabo eating you up all day long. We beat you and the rest of your team. If you knew how to play run defense as well as you pass rush then it would've been harder for us.

If he didn't notice, Turner's long run was to his side of the field.

I can agree with him.....Rodgers fumble at the 1 and the face mask penalty...That's what I call beating yourself.

I respectfully disagree

on the rodgers fumble...did you see the hit that Peterson or Lofton put on him. He didn't just drop the ball on his own accord. We actually hit him. Also the reason he was running it in was because our run defense was stout up to that point. Our run defense dictated that possession.

On the face mask penalty...if he had not done that then Weems either would have ran it all the way or got even further. after he juked the kicker he had a free lane.

What I meant by it is tough to win when you fumble the ball and give cheap penalties.

agree with above posters, if anything we kept them in the game. Lofton dropped a pic that would have killed one of their scoring drives and someone else dropped another one. We, even at nine and two have left a lot of TO's on the field ourselves....

Lofton didn't drop the pick, we just didn't challenge it. we would have won it, but we also got the catch from Gonzo, so it evened out

Clays just pissed, he didn't get any sacks.

That was not a pick.

I find it funny how we have a talent of making teams beat themselves. That's actually pretty impressive to me.

That wasn't a pick. You have to maintain possession all the way to the ground and he dropped it when he hit the ground.
