Clay Matthews glad to be back pass rushing

Matthews glad to be back pass rushing

Green Bay Packers linebacker Clay Matthews has admitted that he is looking forward to facing a less mobile quarterback against the Cincinnati Bengals.

The Packers faced two passers also known for their running skills in the first two weeks of the season in the form of Colin Kaepernick and Robert Griffin III.

Matthews is now pleased he can get after pocket passer Andy Dalton when the Bengals come to Lambeau Field on Sunday.

He told reporters: "It allows us to be pass rushers a little bit more. We can't ever get too crazy out there and lose our distribution in regards to our rush lanes, but it brings a smile to my face."

The Packers are 1-1 in their season going in to week three.
