Niiiiice news on Claiborne..

Just hold off until the Lions game. No reason to push it.

In the big picture we have been very lucky this year with avoiding major injuries and having depth like Dak and Brown that kept the team from rushing players back before they were ready.

Then again, if you put the question to Will McClay he would probably tell you they had a young team by design - and younger players are injured less and recover faster.

Yep. I think the win column has a lot to do with urgency too.

Mo possibly coming back before the playoffs is great news.

Our secondary looks pretty solid with him back in the mix and Scandrick playing better and better each week.

Scandrick looked the best he has looked all season against the Vikings.

Once we get 2 more wins i'd like to see us really limit him, get Leon McFadden some experience if need be, and get him ready for the playoffs.

If we keep winning, I hold Claiborne out as long as possible.

Shoot, I might hold him out until the Eagles game and then let him play in that game just to get his legs under him.

I'm expecting Mo back for the Eagles game, and would be fine with that. Didn't like the sound of that injury to begin with, and I see no reason to rush him back at this point in the midst of an 11 game win streak. I do want to see him on the field before win-or-go-home time, but one game is enough for me at this point. I hope he's able to play at the same level he played at earlier in the season, because it was a noticeable difference with him and Church both out.

I'd be ok if we kept him out till the eagles game so long as he's putting in the conditioning work on the side. The eagles game could be a dress rehearsal for the playoffs.

Same here. After the Giants would rather take a loss than him come play and re injure.

Thanks for the info WG. Great to hear that Mo is progressing and may be back within the next few weeks. Also, hope Wilcox gets back soon as well since the secondary is the strength of the defense and they need the numbers.

Yes!! Once we secure the first round bye this is a must , have the secondary 100% for the playoffs

Scandrick didn't start. He only played in Nickel. Less reps seemed to help him.

I like this idea,,,, hold him out and let him heal, let him get some reps in the last game or two just to get him back up to speed
