He was left to handle Clay Matthews by himself a lot this game and when Matthews is right he can be a beast of a pass rusher. Matthews had a down year last season but his combination of speed and power off the edge is pretty elite. Throw in the difficulty of playing the first full game of the season on the road in a place like Lambeau which can make it hard to hear snap counts, and playing basically the entire game with a broken nose which causes a number of distractions and Staley was put in a pretty tough spot on Sunday.

Staley is a solid LT but not a great one. Good technique in the run game, very athletic in getting to the second level, and very assignment-sound in pass protection. But he struggles against powerful pass-rushers who can get him off-balance. He'll have some bad games against good pass-rushers but he'll generally get the job done and I think he'll be considerably better next week.
