There was 2:05 left on the clock when the Rams kicked off and gave the ball back to Aaron Rodgers and the Packers for a chance to win the game with a field goal. It seemed like Rodgers would do what he has done repeatedly in crunch time, but the opportunity was wasted. Ty Montgomery fumbled on the kick return and the Packers (3-3-1, 1-1-1 NFC North) suffered a tough 29-27 loss to the Rams (8-0, 3-0 NFC West) on the road in Los Angeles.
Clay Matthews only has seven pressures this season, which ranks him 95th among all edge rushers according to Pro Football Focus. Those are appalling numbers for a guy that has started all six games this year. Yet, you cannot judge what’s inside a guy and this is where Matthews played college ball. He will likely be playing in front of a larger contingent of people and should be even more energized from the opening kick.
