Neither did Peterson until later on his 2nd season. IDK why people think players are supposed to just be allpro right when theyre drafted. He's played 20 nfl games.

Guy is trash. He gave up like a 60 yard pass on the second drive and had an interception thrown right to him that I would've caught. He also gave up a touchdown I am not impressed. Until he shuts down the receiver he is covering on a consistent basis then maybe he can be serviceable.

They were talking about his rookie year.

How can he shut down any particular receiver when he plays zone? I highly doubt you would have jumped up as high as he did and catch the ball at its highest point. There is more trash in your logic than what resides in Mo's skillset

Mo hasn't had the most auspicious of beginnings into the league. When he was held out of TC due to college graduation and then injury, his progress was seriously curtailed during his rookie season. I'm not one to hold someone accountable for things that he couldn't have avoided. His most recent shoulder injury hasn't done his performance on the field any favors, either.
He's playing at one of the most demanding positions that exists in the sport of football. Many before him have taken years to come into their own before finding success. Cut him some slack and you probably won't be sorry for it in the longrun. I think he's talented enough to make the necessary adjustments and play well enough in due time. It should make his schematic transition easier if people remain patient with him in the meantime.

think so. So while all these people want to say this guy is a bust. Its barely the 4th game of his 2nd yr. Im glad Dallas didnt give up on michael irvin after his rookie yr or his 2nd yr or his 3rd.

I beg to differ.........he showed flashes in his rookie year, and even had one of his best games against what was arguably the best wide receiver tandem last year against the Falcons. He even would have had another pick if not for a blatant offensive pass interference on I believe Julio Jones.
People need to lay off him a little and give him a chance. His scouting reports where always great press corner with man to man cover skills and lacks the zone mentality. He is in the wrong defense, but I blame Kiffin for not adjusting a little to using the strengths of our corners and going more with the way Seattle uses their corners.

Am I though? Cause that's all he has shown the Cowboys in 2 years....that he can't compete at this level.

Again, wrong. He was a competent CB last season as a rook and has regressed a bit in a new scheme. Your implications that he can't compete are groundless and absurd.

I've seen a missed training camp, two different defensive schemes and injuries in his 18 months since being drafted. Those are not excuses just the facts. It might be a little early to run the 'he can't compete at this level' flag up the pole just yet.

The kid has gotten so much crap. But he really played a pretty good game last week. Fumble Recovery and Int. Watch the int again ball wasn't thrown right at him he still went up for the ball and made a heck if a catch. Heck I can say he even baited Manning into throwing the pass in the trail position and used his athleticism to make a play on the ball. So many people want to be "right" every day instead of being "happy". Instead of seeing improvement some of y'all rather be miserable and "right" glad you don't make decisions in how this club is run. Ready to run a 2nd year player off the team after 20 games. That's just crazy just like some wanted to run Dez out of here. Be patient let the kid develop and get healthy.
