Jerry on the Fan, Tuesday morning.
About the game. He was confident they could score points, but had concern about slowing down the Rams, after the way they started. But the defense made stops and got turnovers when needed. Had several players not having a good game, but came back and made plays at the end.
Encouraged by Romo, playing better. Romo recognized last week, what was needed, went to trainers, worked on his legs to get it corrected.
Muuray, after fumbles early in 3 games, but fought back and played hard. Physical player, makes yards after 1st hit. Uses arms as a balancing technique. Ball hangs out there, and he realized that, they are working on that issue.
About Mo, had good camp, then injury, so is working on getting back to his start of camp playing well. Great athletic ability at LSU, WR or CB. They are not down on him. They are not committed to keeping him in there because of what they gave up for him. As Scandrick had best camp of any player. And has he lived up to the status of what they gave up for him, no, but they still feel he will be a very good player for them.
Spencer will get reps in practice as to see if he can get some snaps in this weeks, but will just see how it goes.
Ro. McClain, will wait and see. At point do they wait until 100%, not risk it, or to see if he can play some snaps. It’s hamstring, not groin, Jerry misspoke on the injury. It responded well but that doesn’t mean anything right now.
Sacks, will see if spencer can help when he gets back, Melton & T. McClain too, once they are 100%. Create more pressure to help secondary.
Was asked if blue uniforms would be worn Sunday and the jinx. He said, no, it’s white, already determined, can’t change it.
Told story of one of the SB years, Pat summerall announcing, but forgot socks when packing. So they [I think he meant TV station], bought him 2 pairs of socks, $300, at the hotel they stay at. So he gave Jerry one of the pairs. Jerry said he wore them every game after, and they never lost. Radio guy asked himif he washed them, after each game. Jerry said, yes, they were washed. LOL

Just read an ESPN article and they are saying groin too:

McClain did not play against the Rams because of a groin injury and his availability for practice this week is uncertain.

I'm so confused.

Lets make it easy they are injured with groin/hamstring issues both will take sometime to heal or else both injuries will tend to linger. How sever? don't know everyone heals at different rates they will monitor them during workouts and if they can go they will be in the game.

Well, now we know why jerri is so hell-bent on getting credit for all those years.

If, I have to listen to jerri, this is the way to do it, much more tolerable and sounds almost sane without all the Uh's & rambling, nonsensical statements removed.

You're the jerri whisperer!

Does it ever get into Jerrah's thick skull that maybe Claiborne would be better motivated if he was benched in favor of Moore? Or that it may help motivate other players on the team if they know the organization will play the best players regardless of what was given up for them?

Of course not.

Was listening to a few other reporters this morning, they have their theory's about all this.
Need to look at the combination of the players involved.
Who gives the better options on the field. I know what people will say, because of this Mo being the most hated player now, since Matt johnson is gone. Don't understand this line of thinknig. Need someone to hate on...
But what combo is best.
Mo & Carr, Scandrick.
Scandrick & Carr, Moore
Or othe possibilites.

Moore was responsible for covering Walker, and did not do it, so claiborne was trying to make a play he wasn't responsible for, yes he should have tried arm tacking, but wasn't entirel on him.

Jerry is not making that call of who plays or gets benched. it was the coaches who sat Claiborne down last season in favor of Scandrick and had Scandrick not been suspended he likely would have been starting. Garrett has address this issue and has stated where you were drafted is not going to determine if you start

I support Mo, but this certainly couldn't hurt. Scan should start @ the least...would keep the nickle look the same.
