I'm more bothered by his constant injuries and, even more, Steven Jones having to call him out each of his first two years for not practicing through minor injuries. And that attitude is what the OP was referring to. That's not a good sign at all.

The constant migraines don't help either. So far he has not missed any games, though, due to his headaches.

I don't know what else the guy can do.

But, to me, Webb just looks clueless out there. Deer-in-the-headlights, rookie lost. I think it's best if they can keep him off the field until next season. If they still feel he's worth keeping and investing in.

He does look lost out there but I think the added playing time will only make him better in the stretch run. I don't think Moore is going to make that big of a difference.

I'm disappointed with the injury struggles for Claiborne but have not lost faith in him. I think Dallas moving more to man coverage as opposed to the zone coverages will benifet him once he can get past this injury.

I remember an interview from this past offseason. In it he talked about his rookie year. One of the things that really stood out to me was him talking about the later part of the season and this came outta his mouth "I was thinking towards the end of the year, man I gotta do this again today" in regards to practicing. He then went on to talk about being more commited to football this year. I just don't believe this dude wants to play, I thin he is just collecting a check at this point. No heart.......

That's my thought that he realizes the NFL is to big for him and if he stays injured, or make them think he's injured, then he still gets his money. Never seen any player get so excited when a ball is overthrown by 10 yards and he's celebrating like he made the play to win the Super Bowl when in fact he had nothing, absolutely nothing, to do with the failure of the play. Sad part is that I think he really thinks he was the reason the play failed. I think in this case his Wonderlic score really does reveal his everyday IQ level--mental and football.

Poor kid. His heart has been questioned along with his toughness. And now, his purported lack of intelligence? Ease up, guys.

i think this as well. He is a man corner, always has been and that's why we drafted him. IMO the scheme needs to adapt or the personnel needs to change.

It has, coming out of the bye week Dallas has gone to more man as opposed to zone. Does not mean we will not run zones at times but we are running a lot more man coverages and I agree we should since that is what our CB do best

It has in the meantime. I hope to see more of a philosophical change on defense in the offseason.

The star on his helmet.

Anyone being honest has to admit he's been a huge disappointment. This guy was a #6 overall pick who also cost us our second rounder.

Truth.

Hey, I loved Gavin Escobar. I just didn't tell anybody that until after the Cowboys drafted him.

I'm finding it hard to care about Claiborne because no matter what he does he'll never justify the investment made in him.

Broaddus has hinted at him being soft the last month. He hasn't flat out said it but he's thrown out several hints on twitter and talkin' cowboys.

I dont know, but he has been my biggest dissapointment. I expected so much more from him.
