First the Packers' sack record, then on to 100 for Clay Matthews

GREEN BAY, Wis. -- No matter what else Clay Matthews -- or any other NFL pass-rusher for that matter -- does during his career, he will always be measured by one thing: sacks.

Soon, perhaps even this Sunday against the Bengals at Lambeau Field, the Green Bay Packers outside linebacker will own the franchise record in that category.

But he's far from the one-trick pony that the current team record holder, Kabeer Gbaja-Biamila, was. Known as KGB, he broke Reggie White's franchise record and finished with 74.5 sacks but did little else in his nine-year career that ended in 2008, the year before Matthews arrived in Green Bay.
