Is Clay Matthews the most overrated linebacker in NFL History?

I think a lot of his hype and popularity has to do with his long hair, if he had shorter hair he would be an average run of the mill NFL linebacker, infact I don't even think his production is worthy of being called average, he sucks in pass coverage and can do nothing but blitz
He is just another USC steroid product as he most definately juiced with his buddy Brian Cushing who did get caught

Glad someone gets it, only reasoanble reply so far, if someone can tell me what areas Clay Matthews is above average at besides blitzing I would like to know

He gets destroyed going up against good LTs. He can't cover and he's average against the run

Yup
Everytime he gets burned or beat in pass coverage I wonder why he even starts in the NFL let alone gets named to the pro bowl

He played in college with some really talented teammates in Maualuga and Cushing, both of whom have been excellent pros. He benefitted early from Green Bay having a strong secondary with veterans allowing to display his skills as a pass rushing LBer.
However, he doesn't have all the skills to be an overall great LBer, just a really good one with longevity. He does have the look however to be marketed as an elite LBer which he has been. He a damn solid Pro but he's not as advertised which makes him money but prompts these threads lol.

He's a 3-4 OLB. Rushing the passer is by far his most important function, and he's really good at it.

He's good enough to be a starter in the NFL for about 6-8 years and if you add in him playing for the packers, his long flowing, hippy hair, and his family lineage he's a little bit over-rated but anyone who plays in the NFL for 6-8 years ranks in the top 1 percent of all people who played football in their lives so cut him some slack.

I like Cole Beasley and Pat Tillman more for golden locks of flowing hair. Beasley runs like a psycho man

You do realize that good LTs destroy a lot of people right?
Posted on 12/28/14 at 5:05 pm to goldennugget
lol what? He's an elite edge pass rusher who can also come inside and dominate at Middle Linebacker. Hes crazy fricking good.

He's actually pretty good against the run. That being said, he's a 34 rush linebacker, what the hell is he supposed to be good at?
You are a terrible poster.
