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 (now) : This is not complex, just someone doesn't want to believe reality

beast (now) : We already have told you... if Packers lose all their games (they won't, but if they did), and Buccaneers and Falcons win all theirs

Zero2Cool (2m) : I posted it in that Packers and 1 seed thread

Zero2Cool (4m) : I literally just said it.

packerfanoutwest (8m) : show us a scenario where Pack don't get in? bet you can't

Zero2Cool (10m) : Falcons, Buccaneers would need to win final two games.

Zero2Cool (10m) : Yes, if they win one of three, they are lock. If they lose out, they can be eliminated.

packerfanoutwest (20m) : as I just said,,gtheyh are in no matter what

Zero2Cool (25m) : Packers should get in. I just hope it's not 7th seed. Feels dirty.

packerfanoutwest (28m) : If packers lose out, no matter what, they are in

packerfanoutwest (28m) : both teams can not male the playoffs....falcon hold the tie breaker

packerfanoutwest (30m) : if bucs win out they win their division

beast (39m) : Fine, Buccaneers and Falcons can get ahead of us

packerfanoutwest (45m) : falcons are already ahead of us

beast (49m) : Packers will get in

beast (49m) : If Packers lose the rest of their games and Falcons win the rest of theirs, they could pass us... but not gonna happen

packerfanoutwest (55m) : they still are in the playoffs

packerfanoutwest (55m) : If Packers lose the remaining games,,,,at 10-7

Zero2Cool (2h) : We can say it. We don't play.

Mucky Tundra (3h) : But to say they are in is looking past the Saints

Mucky Tundra (3h) : That said, their odds are very favorable with a >99% chance of making the playoffs entering this week's games

Mucky Tundra (3h) : Packers are not in and have not clinched a playoff spot.

buckeyepackfan (4h) : Packers are in, they need to keep winning to improve their seed#.

Mucky Tundra (13h) : Getting help would have been nice, but helping ourselves should always be the plan

beast (13h) : Too bad Seahawks couldn't beat Vikings

bboystyle (14h) : We just need to win Monday night and were in

Mucky Tundra (17h) : Or ties, but let's be real here

Mucky Tundra (17h) : Other scenario was Falcons+Rams losses

Mucky Tundra (17h) : Needed a Falcons loss for a Seahawk loss to clinch

buckeyepackfan (17h) : Am I wring in saying if Tge Vikings beat The Seahawks, The Packers clinch?

Mucky Tundra (21-Dec) : Agreed; you stinks

Zero2Cool (21-Dec) : I'm not beating anyone. I stinks.

Mucky Tundra (21-Dec) : rough injury for tank dell. guy can't catch abreak

beast (21-Dec) : So far the college playoffs have sucked... One team absolutely dominates the other

beast (21-Dec) : Well even if you weren't positive towards a guy, you wouldn't nessarily want to tell the media that (if they don't know about it)

Martha Careful (21-Dec) : I think MLF want Love to look past the end half issues, and feel good about his play. Our coaches generally keep a very positive tone.

beast (21-Dec) : I think a great running game will do that for most QBs

packerfanoutwest (21-Dec) : Coach Matt LaFleur has said quarterback Jordan Love is playing the best football of his career.

beast (21-Dec) : Oh, that's how you keep beating buckeye, with cheating

Zero2Cool (20-Dec) : There is a rule that if your name starts with 'b' you lose 15 points. Hey, I don't make the rules, I just enforce them!

wpr (20-Dec) : and then there is Beast. Running away with it all.

beast (20-Dec) : As of tonight, 3 way tie for 2nd in Pick'em, that battle is interesting!

beast (20-Dec) : Lions vs Vikings could be the main last game as it could determine division winners or #1 vs #2 seed

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : Or if KC needs to win for the #1 seed

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : Right now it looks like the only prime worthy games are Det-Minny and KC-Denver (if Denver can clinch a wild card spot)

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : The entirety of week 18 being listed as flex is weird

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Matt LaFleur today says unequivocally "Ted Thompson had nothing to do with the drafting of Jordan Love."

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Apparently, the editing is what pieces comments together. That Ted thing ... fake news.

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : LaFleur "opportunity that Ted Thompson thought was too good to pass up"

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Jordan Love pick was Ted Thompson's idea.
