Is it time to sit Mo

It's time to sit the OL in front of Mo. Mo is a talent and likely NFL prospect if he can stay out of trouble and gain weight. He's at a disadvantage now because the OL, and we have no passing game.

 
I think people get wrapped up in the big play potential from Mo and expect it every game and more frequently, when he doesnt bust a big one people will get frustrated. 

He needs to learn to be willing to take on contact and run over someone for a few yards.  Right now he plays to get a lane get guys to pursue then use those cuts and be gone,  when he gets no blocking he (and hardly anyone) can be successful 

Personally I'm more worried about Mo off the field there has been the discussion about needing to be watched over and so on. Hopefully this guy is mentally maturing and if not gets all the help he needs.  Mo the person > Mo the guy carrying a football

I think there’s a body of work to judge by....  no one is looking at just one game here. At least they shouldn’t be.

While we need all the talented bodies possible, this article should tell you everything you need to know about Mo's motivation level.

Clearly there are still lots of issues getting kids ready to play, some more than others.  

 
Until the O-line situation is handled we won't be doing much of anything with any of our playmakers..  when the opponent is getting instant pressure on the QB from 3 and 4 man rush... we are screwed..

 
The play caller Should put Mo in a position to succeed instead of running him into the line of scrimmage. He’s a player that needs space to be able to utilize his skill set.  Flex him out wide, put him on end arounds, isolate him on routes against linebackers and safeties, etc....
