Message: <blockquote data-quote="TJV" data-source="post: 424295" data-attributes="member: 4300">The Giants are the hottest team entering the NFC playoffs so I don’t have a problem with analysts picking them to beat the Packers: Of the three teams the Packers could have faced this weekend, IMO the Giants were the best and most complete team. And if I were producing “No Huddle” I’d encourage opposing points of view, so I don’t have a problem with that, either. But when the subject of Clay Matthews was brought up, I’d expect a casual fan to have the kind of opinion Faulk expressed, not someone who gets paid to have opinions on the NFL. Of course if the depth of Faulk’s “research” or thought process is looking at sack numbers and nothing more he came to a logical conclusion. But if I were paid to have opinions I’d care more about being right or at least providing more in-depth analysis that the casual fan doesn’t have time for. For example, how do this year’s pressures, knockdowns, and hurries compare to last? Was there anything else going on with the Packers’ defense that may have affected Clay’s sack numbers? And I’d mention while his sack numbers are down, he’s had more passes defended, interceptions, and forced fumbles than last season. Instead Faulk repeats the same vapid comment three or four times. I hope Clay makes him look even more foolish Sunday afternoon. </blockquote>
