Jokes about Mo's IQ and oratory aside, this video has got me pumped.
Who would have thought just a year ago that Claiborne would be probably our 2nd most important defender besides Sean Lee?
Incredible story for Mo this season (despite missing time). I hope he's ready!!

His injury grosses me out just thinking about it.
It sucks he couldn't get back sooner, because we might really need him if it's GB that comes to town. Maybe he's back and playing well just in time. I guess it's good that he's practicing hard this week, at least, so he'll have a couple weeks back before his first game.

I like Mo. He handled the disappointing start in Dallas really well, clearly wants to be here, and played through it all to the point where he's playing high-level CB in the NFL. Broaddus likes to chirp on him for being (mentally) soft, but he's really pretty much exactly the opposite. He's just been injured.
I bet he signs a favorable 2nd contract in Dallas, too, now. It's unlikely anybody will blow him away with a long term offer, and he genuinely wants to be here. I just hope he can stay on the field.
That doesn't mean I won't take the IQ joke now and then if it's there to be had.

Well said! I also believe we'll retain him after this season for a team-friendly (yet fair) contract.I like Mo.

Actually now that I think about it, isn't this his 2nd contract right now? I believe he signed a 1 year deal after the 5th year option on his rookie contract wasn't exercised.

Give him 5 -7 million a year draft another corner this year too. Secondary is set. Believe we need to keep Barry church too. He's had a great season

I've been in MO's corner since his rookie year even when people were ready to write him off. I just felt like he was guy who had lost his confidence and took that and made it into a positive. The guy worked hard, changed his body to be more physical and play his game. The injuries have really sucked for him. I'm hoping he comes back and has a great post season. I look for Mo to be back next year. He bleeds for this team he loves Dallas and I think he will sign for a modest deal and really become the player we all hoped for during the second half of his career. He had really come on the last couple of years so he is capable.

This vid got me. Not gone lie. He's a fighter no doubt. Every time he shows flashes, he has some sort of nagging injury that sets him back. I hope he has 3 healthy games in him for these playoffs. If he plays like he did earlier this year look out. I'm rooting for Mo big time.
