The sackmaster reigns in week two...
Heisman Worthy
Clay Matthews, LB, Packers - 3.5 sacks, 7 tackles and a pass deflection in a victory
Matthews was the star of Thursday Night Football leading the Packers defense to a physical beating of Jay Cutler and the Bears. After two games, Matthews already has an NFL best six sacks, which matches his 2011 total. He is the sixth player in NFL history to get six or more sacks in the first two games of a season and the only player ever to do it more than once. He will square off with Pete Carroll's Seahawks on Monday Night Football next week.
All-American Caliber
Anthony McCoy, TE, Seahawks - 5 catches for 41 yards and his first career touchdown
Reggie Bush, RB, Dolphins - 26 carries for 172 yards and 2 TDs plus 3 catches for 25 yards
Matt Cassel, QB, Chiefs - 23/42 for 301 yards and 2 TDs to 1 INT
Carson Palmer, QB, Raiders - 24/48 for 373 yards and 1 TD to 1 INT
Rey Maualuga, LB, Bengals - 10 tackles
Frostee Rucker, DE, Browns - 4 tackles and a sack
Malcolm Smith, LB, Seahawks - Blocked punt
