Lost most of the top end talent. Several solid kids left, but just don’t think we have enough. We look small and slow. Last night was a lot of things, but doesn’t help that RB1 and by far the best athlete on the team didn’t play because of injury. Probably second best player and athlete hurt his ankle 3 minutes in and never returned. Maybe we can sneak into the playoffs, or get something rolling in a positive direction. (Also gotta figure out how to get at least competent play from QB, last night was bad for the coach’s kid.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was also shocked and curious about what was going on with you guys...was also surprised at Mineola's score. Winny's score was very misleading and not even close reflection on the talent they actually have...they should be a solid second but man, Mally is incredibly strong again.

We ran for like 300 yards on yall in 2 qtrs lol. Agreed though. Solid 2nd, unless Commerce's speed gets yall which I think is doubtful.

Anybody including us with have problems with him. He was directly responsible for both scores though only one of the TDs was his. One he took to the house on a slant from about 60 out. The other long pass we somehow had an angle and caught him at the 2. Edited August 31 by Eagle8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eagle8 Posted August 31 Share Posted August 31 If I'm being honest.....Winny's down fall is they didn't set the edge. We consistently beat them outside. As far as the offensive woes....Capehart is gonna Capehart and you gotta keep the safeties back which gives a lot of running room if the RB can reach the 2nd level. Which he did on several occasions. The difference was our defense was opportunistic and theirs wasn't. We caused two fumbles. One a hard shot in the back by Qwa Peoples's dislodged the ball on the first one. Then we gang tackled the RB on the screen on 4th and ripped it out on the 2nd one. Then our CB made a great open field tackle on 4th and 5 at their 45. Those 3 defensive plays were the difference.

Solid 2nd, unless Commerce's speed gets yall which I think is doubtful. That's the part I was referring to that will change over the season. Finney and Castles are both defensive gurus and will have the defense performing much better by mid season. Offensively we will be fine. I think it was obvious Winny wanted to work on the passing game, which is understandable after losing their qb and wide receiver to graduation and the only way to get the new qb and receivers up to game speed is to do it under pressure.

Eagle8 Posted August 31 Share Posted August 31 Winny is going to be fine. The QB will settle down and they'll probably walk everybody but Koff. Koff ain't gonna let anybody within 40 of them in district, imo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somebody fairly decent is gonna be sitting at home Rd 1. Sabine beats SH and that woulda got them into the playoffs as at least the 4 seed in SHs district.....In our district they gotta steal 2 games from LE, GW, Jeffy, Atl, Tatum to get in. And one of those 5 will be sittin at home as well. Edited August 31 by Eagle8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dude can fly I personally don’t think anyone can guard him but the important thing will be is how do we capitalize on the attention that he will receive. Running game looks strong but there will be times where another receiver will have an opportunity to make a big play and as we saw the other night one was a great forced fumble by the eagle defense and the other was a dropped td pass so i believe that will be the story Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
