I hope Morris Claiborne has no one to turn 2....or feels like he has no one else to talk to on the team about this situation. Except for OScan..i feel like he can learn alot from scan and scan from him...what y'all think??

really how so...Mo needs to realize...man this secondary better not fall apart....Mo has to make a bad situation good and step up huge on Sunday...take it all and leave it on the field attitude even if he get burned run over juked I mean just don't let up always 100% ....regardless of the outcome...i hope he does that cuz in all reality he is a top pick if he plays like one hell get paid like one...scan is the man 2 but he's a LEADER cuz he got there fighting for his job..mo needs to wake up..Mo!! Leaders are leaders cuz they make others leaders ... from scan and let him be a leader

I'd be upset too if a 5th rounder was better than me and taking my spot, but thats what happens when you're a bust

yeah but they made it seem like there was a personality clash there. they took claiborne's side b/c they said scandrick's attitude issues will grind on you.

Broaddus isn't a fan of Scandrick's overall. I think some of that was coming through. Hard to say, but it's pretty hard to have sympathy for Mo's antics this week.

I can sympathize with the pressure the guy feels to be great. And I'm sure he worked really hard in the offseason to try to put his best foot forward. It stinks that he's not better when he's doing what he can, but walking out is not a solution.
Will be interesting to see how he performs this week, though. He's getting his man-card tested on Sunday, that's for sure.

When you're hurt EVERY training camp it's tough to develop. I wonder what could've been if he was just able to stay healthy and get those much-needed reps.

I agree with you about Broaddus, he said himself he hasn't liked Scandrick for awhile (off the field). Mickey obviously has been sympathizing with Mo.

As much as I bash Mo, I watch him speak to the media and you can tell he's a gentle hearted person so a part of me feels sorry for me. I agree with the caller who said they should have given him the N.O. game to prove himself again before making the move. I think Jason really likes Scandrick though and his entire approach to the game.

Feelings aside...Mo needs to get his *** out there and make plays like he and others are paid to do. We need the whole secondary to be on their A game to win Sunday.

Winning cures all.

That might be why Claiborne stormed out. he got his spot took but Scandrick might have ridiculed him for taking it.

This makes more sense than a coach informing him and him reacting that way. Morris basically said he needed to remove himself from the situation to avoid a problem. I don't think he would ever get physical with a coach, but the fact he might wanna fight Orlando makes perfect sense.

I think Claiborne stinks but I also think Scandrick is a total douchebag who deserves an asskicking from someone... anyone.

Mo needs to do what Scandrick never could and actually catch a football.

Making plays in the NFL is huge for a CB, especially now that the NFL made it much more difficult to cover a WR. Mo's (supposed) strength is his ball skills. Scandrick has none. Mo got abused for 99% of last weeks game, but we won because of him anyways. What he needs to do is play the ball aggressively. At this point he isnt gonna out cover a guy who has defending the slot for years, but he needs to do what Scan cant and what Mo was supposed to be able to

I agree I could care less about baby Mo's feelings. I don't care that he walked out. Come Sunday I want him making plays and quit getting burned. The soap opera part is meaningless.

You do realize football players are humans not robots built for your amusement right? I feel sometimes we get so caught up in our football team that we view these guys as gladiators. They have access to all the same emotions that us normal guys do.

And he lacks confidence at times so imagine how that's going to play on his mind now.

And to my suprise I woke up to another Mo Claiborne thread started:facepalm:

This can go one of two ways for Mo....we shall see I guess!

absolutely this. He is either gonna get over his bruised feelings and attack NO, or he is going to continue to fail....let's hope he uses it as motivation...
