I agree. So what, a rookie cried after making a big mistake in his first NFL came. The bigger story is the fact that his head coach didn't support and encourage him by putting him back in the game.

Why would a coach put a crybaby back in the game?

:confused:

I think that that NY was right to sit him down. If you make a mistake like that, you need to understand the gravity of that mistake. That will help that young man and the team way more down the road IMO.

If Claiborne was in a heap of tears after giving up a reception in the 1st quarter and checked out the rest of the game, it would send up some red flags for me. I don't mind a player in tears after the game, but to be in tears in the 1st quarter when you're still in the trenches in the heat of battle? Methinks the big stage and bright lights got to him a little bit. Maybe not a huge thing in the grand scheme of things, but definitely not a good thing either ... particularly for a guy playing in the spotlight of New York. He better get some tougher skin.

This ^ ^

As a coach myself, I would never want a player crying during a game. (are we talking about Little League baseball?)

If I see a player cry after a game we lost, I tell him not to, but I get it, I hate losing too.

But a player crying during a game does me absolutely no good at all.

An NFL player, crying during a game, ... what is wrong with you people saying it is ok?

Well if this is the case, Cruz should have been sitting right next to him. :D

Cruz is not a Rookie. That, to me, is the difference. Nobody should fumble the ball but especially a Back who was not hit hard. That's more of a ball security issue to me. If you want to get your point across to a young player, I see nothing wrong with sitting him down, especially if he's balling on the sidelines. You wanna say Cruz too, that's fine but they already did that to Cruz last year when he also fumbled.

Just kidding with the Cruz comment, but to each his own in how you choose to groom a young player. Especially your 1st round pick. I'm not sure whether he fumbled in preseason or not, if he did I can see sitting him. If this is the first time he's done it, I think you give it to him again. After losing Jacobs the Giants don't have a lot of options at RB. They may need him more sooner than later.

I agree with your train of thought here. This is just my opinion here but I think it depends on a couple of things. I mean, if you get hit hard and the ball comes out or if you get your bell wrung or something like that, then I think the coaching staff probably gives the benefit of the doubt. However, I didn't really think that he got hit particularly hard. I think he just was lazy with the ball security. Now, if he has shown that he has this issue in TC, for example, that would piss me off if he did it in a game. If he was crying about it, that would piss me off even more. I would sit him if that were the scenario. I think it's somewhat subjective just depending on the circumstances. That's just an opinion on my part.

His tears mean nothing to me. As we all know, football is an emotional game. But, I hate this thread. The Giants will beat him up with this picture and these comments drilling ball security into his head. He is a good player and I hate anything that might be used to make him a better player. Of course, how he reacts to the humiliation and ridicule will be interesting to watch. Is he going to grit his teeth and play with a chip on his shoulder? Or, is he going to just keep being a fumbling whiney cry baby? Personally, I hope it is the latter.

He's a kid, and I'm sure this being his first NFL game and the BS hoopla that preceded it had this kids emotions on rabid levels. Too be so high and bathing in glory at one moment, and the next moment you just embarrassed yourself and team in front of millions just was overwhelming to him. He'll get over it with time, and handle himself differently. In the mean time we can laugh. I wish it had been Mara crying instead.

This. If he scored a touchdown on that play instead of fumbling, I guarantee he is in the endzone, talking trash, doing some silly dance. He would have no pity on the Dallas D for not being able to stop him, so again, he gets no pity from me.

Exactly

sometimes I wonder if 80% of our fanbase is from Highland Park. you guys need to lighten up and realize those clowns are our "enemy." stop with the soft b/s. cowboys have been under attack the last 5 years from everyone, when the tables turn i'll be damned if I don't take the opportunity to laugh at their misfortune.

If he wants to be a Giant, he has to learn to grit. That's the kind of player they are looking for.

Kinda reminds me of Barber when he first got to NY. He fumbled a lot and cried to the media about his playing situation. He sat for a few years before he finally figured it out and it did make him a better player. I don't like the guy still but that's a different story.
