Not that I'm surprised, hope Carr and Scandrick are up for the challenge

Morris Claiborne: He missed the Oakland Raiders game with a hamstring injury and has missed a total of three games because of his health. Claiborne didn't sound as confident about his return for the Bears game. "I don’t know at this point," Claiborne said. "I haven’t done any running on it yet, just try to give it time to heal. Just doing treatment for it." Claiborne added he doesn't want to return too fast only to re-injure himself.

you see this is why broaddus has been questioning this guy's passion. he's way too comfortable in the trainer's room.

He's played hurt all of last season and this season. He played hurt 2 weeks ago only to re-injure himself. If you look at his comments before the game it was clear he was not over the hamstring injury. Players doing what's right for their health is also what's right for the team, even if the coaches and fans are too short-sighted to see it.

Hamstring injuries are very tricky, and they are better off not pushing it. Especially when they are going to play on a bad grass field with an expected temperature of 25 degrees. Facing Marshall and Jeffery when you are less than 100% would be bad for the defense.

Sit him until the Packer game at least.

Yeah...they played much better in Detroit and NY after he got hurt...and they were amazing in NO without him. :rolleyes:
no secondary is going to look great with inconsistent pressure like we have. Mo has looked looked lost at times and doesn't seem to be progressing like he should. You could argue the fact that he's been hurt a lot this season. You have to start wondering about his toughness.

Too bad Parcells isn't here to turn the thermostat down in there to about meat locker temperature.

Yeah, even if it doesn't get Claiborne out there any faster, I would take some level of sadistic pleasure in that. LOL.
