Nope, nevermind. Polumalu got it instead. Delete?

that... is frickin' cool as all hell!
back to back DPOY in GB
all is almost right with the world - just 4 more quarters to completion.
edit: so be it. I didn't think CMIII really deserved it the way Woodson did last year. it surprised me to hear he won it. but what surprised me more was that Polamalu did.

RapSheet: RT @RapSheet: RT @MikeGarafolo: Clay Matthews about to go live on NFL Network. No shocker: he's your defensive player of the year.
Well deserved! 
quote:AdamSchefter: RT @BobGlauber: Clay Matthews wins AP Defensive Player of the Year. Good call. He got my vote.
That's one hell of an honor for Capers as well. Back to back players from the same team named DPOY.
Yes it's been done before but it's still a hell of a feather in his cap.
I've read that's not where Kiel puts his feathers.
Congrats to CMIII!
Congrats to CMIII!
I don't think this is the first time we will see Clay win this award.
4-----MORE-----QUARTERS!!!
CAN'T WAIT!!!
CAN'T WAIT!!!
Awesome. And this season just keeps getting better. Only one thing left to do: BRING THE LOMBARDI HOME!!! 
If only TT could find an impact pass rusher.
Hold your horses... not official yet! Could still be somebody else...
From the same source, a mea culpa....
Announcement will be approx. 8:00 PM EST.

Just hope he decides to stay with GB for the long term. He can produce many DPOY's.
Read somewhere Compers is very interested in becoming a head coach and they may hold the Titan position till after the SB... That would suck. Perhaps the best thing about going to the SB is that it has kept other teams away from our guys... 
It is only Peter King's opinion that Capers wants to go to Tennessee.

Probably got scolded from the NFL for pre-mature tweeting.
If the Packers win the Super Bowl, and in doing so our defense plays lights out, it might very well spark a lot of interest in Capers. I'll trade our DC for a Lombardi Trophy any day.
And WTMJ just had breaking news and confirmed as well.
I suspect it just got leaked about 30 minutes earlier.
Congrats CM III

These things always get leaked before it's officially announced on network tv, etc. In any case, we'll "officially" know who the winner is in about 10 minutes on NFL Network
So who gets it next year? Tramon or Raji?
A great credit to the franchise, seriously. TT makes moves to bring Woodson and Matthews both in, pays off.

Tramon and Raji will be Co-DPOY
been waiting for this guy since Mr. Reggie White (92)
congrats C3TO! with all due respect to reggie, clay is the most exciting packer defensive player of my lifetime. never have i focused on one defensive player almost every play like i do with him.
Well folks, after this commercial break, NFL Network either makes it official, or makes the early scooper look like a fool.

Apparently Matthews didn't win the NFL defensive players of the year award, we're hearing.

As if the Bloodline will need anymore motivation
That's cool. Just motivate the Bloodline more for this weekend (and next year)!
Matthews will have even more fire after getting snubbed. The Super Bowl ring he will get will be much more satisfying the the DPOY award.
lmao. Well you have to love the media. That sucks. But at the same time takes nothing away from Clay's season.
For those wondering, this is voted on BEFORE playoffs begin. So Clays performances during the playoffs were not taken into consideration.

Anyone know the over/under on sacks for CMIII this weekend?
I'm going with the over.
