But you could tell King doesn’t trust Allen (or any QB for that matter) against the wind. And to be fair, one of Allen’s passes literally went forward then ended up going completely side ways with the wind. Still think we should’ve thrown in some screens or continued throwing to Hale some. Just get SOME relief off of Haynes and Kaden. This is exactly what I am saying. You don’t have to go completely away from your identity and sling it around all game just enough to keep the defense honest and take some pressure off the run game. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

I really didnt get it....they had no answer for him and even Bowman was getting burnt by Hale. A soph doing this to big time SR OU commit. Man oh well, at least Hale now makes it over to a struggling basketball team that desperately needs him. This too is what I am saying just as a fan watching today’s game. I also am of the opinion Hale is a better athlete than Bowman, straight up! 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, I did understand it was super windy in Mesquite today, and I can say it can kill a passing game like it did Carthage’s in 2018 against Liberty Hill. So, to your point, if you’re going to throw it they need to be shorter more manageable throws for the QB. I think a few rollouts and throwing a medium depth pass to Hale running a crossing route going the same way as the rollout of the QB would’ve been good. Just some short out routes and slants would be a good change of pace to help the rushing attack. When it comes to the running game I’d like to have seen Meredith get some opportunities outside the tackles and then throw some screens to him and even just some passes to him coming out of the backfield. Just try to get him into space, let him make one cut evading that first defender and then see what he can do. I just think there are lots of things Longview can do even when you don’t have a Haynes King at QB. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

If he did....hed know that there isnt a team in ETX that runs the amount of formations and packages that Longview does. He wants a sophomore QB who was on the freshmen B team last year to have the playbook opened for him similar to 2018 Longview. I mean my god, it was only the best QB in our programs' history running that offense. I can't... plus hk was around the program since was a baby time got to hs he knew the system top to bottom Link to post Share on other sites

Dropped interception by Longview that turned into points at the end of the half for Ryan completely changed the game, imo. Lobos go into half winning instead of down 6, who knows. But ifs ands & buts don’t matter after that second half performance. You’re right. Ryan is the better team. No doubt about it. That pick was a gift, I was in awww when he dropped it Link to post Share on other sites
