JSOnline Article on House
"Out of everybody I have ever coached, House has probably come the furthest from when I first got him to where he is now," Whitt said. "He's not a finished product by any means, but when he first got here he didn't play with the play speed or temperament that was needed.

"The guy has a lot of ability. He is playing with that speed and temperament now. "


Barclay could help fortify Packers' offensive line
Lang's arms measured at 32Β½, and since Oct. 7 he has been playing with a right elbow injury that is worse than anyone has let on.

Interesting take on Barclay. While Barclay may not be very good, moving Lang back to LG should help Newhouse and Saturday. And if the left side is shored up, maybe they can focus on giving help to the right side. Having 1 weak spot can be fixed; having 2 weak spots can't. Of course, this assumes that moving Lang back to LG will get that left side to play at a high level....which i'm skeptical about after Newhouse and Saturday looked so bad in New York.

But after last weeks debacle, things can hardly get any worse, so why not give it a try?
