I thought match ups were players going against each i.e. Jake Long vs. John Abraham.

Correct, but it could also be two players playing the same position, evaluating which one has a better performance. For instance, in baseball you say the "pitching match-up," but pitchers do not face each other. In basketball you can point out two star players that will "face off" but do not necessarily defend each other. I just translated that onto football - focusing on which player will have the better game.

I will specify in the future and make a position match-up as well as a direct match-up. Or I could call them something else, you get my point.
