chevyman Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 Here we go boys. 3rd round rematch with our district mate. Playing on thanksgiving week is extremely special and for this team to be in that position right now is incredible. Looking forward to a great matchup with GW. The Bears are a totally different team than when we played a few weeks ago and will present many challenges. The Raiders are playing very well right now and are riding a wave of momentum and confidence from the last 3 weeks. Gonna be fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BearFan13 Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 Winny I’ve been a big fan of y’all since we played! Sorry we have to be enemies this week, but I promise if you guys move on I will be there to root you on!!!! More then anything it’ll be fun to be able to talk football and have that mutual respect between the two programs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Racer55 Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 Considering Winnsboros only won 8 playoff games ever, I’d like to say no matter what happens in this game win or lose, great turn around season for the Raiders! Made a believer out of me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GWBears01 Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 I’ve been a Winnsboro fan since week 5 when we played you guys. Love how hard those kids play. This game will be physical. Taking the Bears by 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to say I'm not sure you could even put any stock at all in that first meeting from the standpoint of preparation for Winny. Absolutely totally different team you guys are now. Raiders will need to take advantage of every opportunity available over the break the get ready for the Bears Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chevyman Posted November 23, 2019 Author Share Posted November 23, 2019 Just saw the stats for Carter last night. Unreal. Also 72 points. That's incredible. You guys are going to be a "bear" to deal with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You guys are going to be a "bear" to deal with. Both teams have improved greatly since the first meeting. Carter was injured the first time our teams played and Allen had to step up. We should have all our kids on the field this time. Our offense really started to click when several position changes were made. I can’t decide if I expect this to be low scoring or not but I know it won’t be 16-12 again lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that will be the most difficult thing for us this week, preparing for a team that we have played but in reality its like it will be a totally new opponent. I also don't think it will be that again either. I will say despite the turnovers that we had, you guys did as good of a job as anyone slowing us down. We have in my opinion improved even more on offense and are executing at a high level right now. As has been the case for a while now, it will come down to our defense.

Bclove05 Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 Congrats to both teams for making it to the 3rd round. Hate that 1 will have to lose this week. This one will be worth the drive and price of admission. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chevyman Posted November 23, 2019 Author Share Posted November 23, 2019 Wonder who is home? I know it won't matter cause Winny is still going to wear red on red regardless. Just watched some film from GW/VA last night, man the Bears were running through them like melted butter. Carter looked very explosive as well as 23. Focusing on those guys too much will open up the play action pass which GW is so good at. It is going to be so crucial for the Raiders to somehow keep the run game in check as best they can cause if they are having success there, it will make it that much more difficult to defend them.

Looking at what I could of Winny last night they had their way with Madison at the LOS. Now that we have DJ at WR as well as a lot of Robby we have the ability to force teams to pick their poison. Are you going to play one on one with them? Because they have the ability to make you pay quick but if you choose to get help then GW can really get going on the ground. Key for Winny will be to continue to do what they do best. Their offense is their best defense so to speak. It can get frustrating when you only get 1 maybe 2 drives a quarter.

GW forces you to play more in the box with their ability to run therefore leading to those outside guys potentially being on an island. The key will be whether or not Winny chooses to give more help to the outside for those receivers therefore leading to easier running lanes. Interesting dilemma it provides. I know that we will have an excellent gameplan as we have every game so it will be very exciting to watch. Offensively the Raiders will just need to continue to do what they do. Stay ahead of the chains. Sustain drives. Take care of the ball. Score when the opportunity is given. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously Winny and GW are pretty evenly matched, but in a scenario where a team mollywhops some one then how would it be difficult to win when matched up again? Lol. I don’t think either coach puts much stock in the film from the last meeting. I honestly don’t. I think you’ll have better success studying film the last few weeks.

I agree, DM played with 9 in the box mostly. 1st half was 5 dl, 4 lb. 2nd half switched to 4-4. They still couldn't stop the run. I don't remember any completed passes by winnsboro, and only 1 or 2 attempts. Gotta hand DM credit. We hit em in the mouth and they never gave up or laid down. Does GW run the spread?

Does GW run the spread? Far from it lol. Pro I but this year have the skill position players to really run it effective. Play calling depends on what the defense wants to attempt to slow down. Stack the box and we become a pass heavy team leave the safeties up and we are content with 4 yards a pop with the FB dive and a healthy dose of Eligia Carter at the RB position. I think this has the makings of a great game just like last time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
