I havent seen much of Pottsboro, but I'm glad our common opponents think we should win.... Cant wait for the game! They about like us. Probably a little better running game. They take what the defense gives them and don’t take many chances. Once they get close enough they will take a chance throwing a jump ball to their tall receivers. They are well coached and play well. I think Gladewater wins but can’t afford to start slow in this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very disciplined and well coached from what I can tell. I don’t think they are bigger than anyone we have played and speed doesn’t jump out at you either. But they appear to always be in the right places. Looks like a true team defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had our best passing game of them season even with a couple interceptions. If y’all get creative running routes DJ will be open deep a lot.

(as well as 1v1 with him just running past people).... DJ takes our offense to a whole other level.... Almost to the point of demanding a double team IMO which obv would benefit our running game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BearFan13 Posted December 2, 2019 Author Share Posted December 2, 2019 He’s going to be something special the next two years. I also think that’s why GW offense is so difficult to defend right now. IF you double DJ, Robbie can beat one on one consistently or the running game is just going to gash you in chunks of yardage. I would do what previous teams have done which is gear up to stop the run first and just hope there’s an off night in the passing game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's where Pottsboro is weak at on defense is with their secondary. Pottsboro does a very good job finding routes in weak coverage. I don't think anybody will be able to stop their passing game but it can be slowed down. They'll get a few runs off but GW should be able to contain them. One thing that Pottsboro does well is not make mistakes and will capitalize on your mistakes if you make any. GW will have to come out playing hard and not let up at all.

I think Gladewater will need to capitalize on most possessions. Pottsboro will slow things down and chew up the clock. If Gladewater can pressure the QB he is vulnerable to make a mistake or two.

chevyman Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 That one formation that GW ran against us was a thing of beauty. I-formation with 36, 12, and 8 back there. So many options off of that. Also lining 12 up in the slot creates a problem as well. The only thing I would add is to go 3 wide with either putting 12 in the slot on one side or 12 on the single side. Im not sure if yall ever went 3 wide against us or not but I think that could be deadly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJ is playing a brand new position so it would make sense that they add wrinkles as he learns, but he just makes the offense so much more explosive. think we only ran it once against you guys but we will also motion out #8 with #12 and #2 and leave #36 in at the fb position creating mismatches everywhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe the very first play of the game was out of that formation. You have the dive to 36, 12 actually came and cut the outside backer, 8 was there for the pitch but 6 kept it for the big gain. Excellent scheme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
