The NFL Players of the Week for week 2 of the 2010 season have been announced and are shown below… and to the left. Unlike the week 1 entry period, we did have some correct guesses this week. Unfortunately, all of those guesses were for Clay Matthews and nobody guessed either of the offensive players correctly. Oh well, better luck next week.
The Week 2 NFL Players of the Week are:
NFC:
Offense: Jason Snelling – Running Back – Atlanta Falcons
Defense: Clay Matthews – Linebacker – Green Bay Packers
AFC
Offense: Andre Johnson – Wide Receiver – Houston Texans
Defense: James Harrison – Linebacker – Pittsburgh Steelers
This marks the second straight week a Houston Texan has been named the AFC offensive player of the week. In the opening weekend, it was running back Arian Foster. Could Matt Schaub be next week? It would make a great story and you know how the NFL loves a great story. He’d definitely get the nod if his stats back it up. You can actually enter him as your week 3 guess right now.
Clay Matthews was a great pick for this week and an amazing 10% of all entries had him as their guess. Clay is the first player in Packers history to record 3 sacks in consecutive weeks. He could have easily been named POW last week as well. He’s a guy to certainly keep on our radar in future weeks. A few people had him matched up with Peyton Manning, which was a god possibility since Peyton took his kid brother out to the wood shed on Sunday Night Football.
