Did anyone see Mo play last night. They ran at the bottom of the screen he was making his NFL debut. If you watched, how did he do?

I tried to watch but seeing all those Stars on the helmet made me keep looking away.

He did well. Guys in the booth felt he was doing a good job staying on his man. Was thrown at just twice, I think, in the game (1st half). Overall, a good outing.

Claiborne’s Preseason Debut Mostly Quiet, But Still Important
From the Cowboys website:
quote:
The No. 6 overall pick was only targeted twice during his first half of work, once on a bubble screen when he was playing in off coverage, and later on a short comeback route.
In both instances, he quickly made the tackle, surrendering a grand total of 13 yards.
“I thought they were going to come at me every snap,” Claiborne said. “But I just tried to go out and play as honest as I could, not jump on any crazy route, just stay on top of everything, try not to let anything behind me. If you were going to catch something in front of me, I was going to give it to you, I’d just come down and make the tackle, but getting beat over the top, that’s how you lose.”

What I saw as well.
He made a clean tackle on the one completion. There were a couple of times when his man was option one and Rivers checked away from him. I thought that was a good sign. He looked like he belonged out there for sure.
Carr looked very good opposite of him and if he continues to play well Mo will get tested.

I don't know about the one that lead to the int., but Taylor definitely had a near pick that the refs then called "hands to the face on." It was a BS call and everyone knew it. He and the WR were both extending their arms for the ball, Taylor's hit the ball first, then the WR's facemask and a flag quickly followed.

Replacement refs. Blah.
