Mo Claiborne is a liability

Fail thread. The ones calling him out didn't watch the game, don't understand it, or just trolling. I will let you choose where you stand out of those three.

He has struggled no question about that but not tonight.

He played decent. Nothing to get amped up about.

Before OScan started develiping I remember this same thing being said about him. Over, and over, and over. Give the guy time good grief. How can a bunch if people whine and moan about Dallas never developing players but be ready to ditch them every other week?

Claiborne has been quite mediocre his first couple seasons, but CB is one of the positions that takes the longest to make the transition from college. Give it time.

I'm more angry at Barry Church. He's useless in coverage and doesn't know his responsibilities. Oh...and he had 2 personal foul penalties.

I am happy he didn't give up a 50+ touchdown. That in itself is A+ in my book.

Mo has been far better the past two weeks. Now he could not have been worse but the arrow ticking up is a very good thing.

Tonight we consistently shut down WRs and he did his part.
TE got us a bit and the zone read allowed RG3 to get away some but that running seemed to tax him and his arm was off after those runs.

I love being able to use Mo as a 3rd CB but play him outside. He has all the tools he juts needs to get physically stronger.
Silly to hate on him for poor tackling when good tackles leave him on the sideline for half the game.
If he does add 10 pound sof muscle and can still cover guys he'll be a top 10 CB for a long time.

Yup, Church has had a very solid year as a first-time starter but he'll want to forget tonight. Green abused him and those 2 penalties were straight Benny Hill.

Totally Agree. You hold your breath every time a pass or runner gets in Mo Vicinity--wherever that is.

If you two ignore the 30 other times where he simply had his guy covered and RG3 had to go elsewhere you'd be about right.

This. He was a whipping boy for many. I too wish Mo was a shut down corner already but it's not gonna happen overnight.

MO played a very solid game coverage wise... He was still a liability when trying to make tackles, but he looks like he is gaining confidence every snap closing in on routes & not playing soft. He had 1 bad coverage on a 3rd & 7 tonight where he gave a little separation but other than that he was solid. I hope he keeps getting better & sees that playing with technique & trusting his skills will work.

And how many receptions and yards did he give up? He played well. I have no idea what game you were watching.
