The Green Bay Packers would be doing a disservice to themselves as well as Don Barclay if they don’t give the forgotten man of training camp every opportunity to win the starting berth at right tackle.

Cuz he is the only one! Seriously though, I think this will happen. Was pretty much a no brainer for me when Bahk took over for Bulaga.

Hey who would have thought just playing the guy at one position and letting him work on it instead of bouncing him all over the place on the line would show immediate results. Hopefully Barclay's pass protection has improved from last year.

Oh but he has been moved around a ton! But he got some great experience last year replacing Bulaga when he got hurt 🙂

“I thought Barclay was clearly one of the top performers of the game for us,” McCarthy said. “When we went through the grading, we didn’t grade out very well as a football team. We graded out poorly as an offense, but I thought Don Barclay’s performance was clearly one of the brighter spots in last night’s game.”

Yep. Don Barclay. The day our team gets it's OL working is the day hell freezes over.

It sounds like from reporters that it is just as much of them being down on Newhouse currently. It is easy to see why. His snaps at right tackle were overall poor and he was beat particularly bad on that strip fumble play.

The other sack I think was a corner blitz so that was just a good defense dial up. Of course he didn't notice and slide the protection over. Poor Harrell.

beast (8-Jan) : Though if they're legitimately trying to re-sign MM, then it makes sense.
