There were many injuries in the Ozen game. Franklin went out on a late hit by the Ozen Defense. He got hit on the left side below the pads. Chase Ferguson (62) was also pulled out. He was in visible pain. He could barely walk. Franklin did come back and punt. i think they were just letting Tinert finish the game to get him some playing time as he seems to be the heir apparent for the QB 1 spot next year.

VP... I agree in principal to your comments in general. I believe these boys want to win in the worst way. I also believe that most of them do what it takes to get the job done. I do however believe that the coaching in Vidor is severely lacking. I have watched the dismal play calling for two seasons. Granted there have been moments but I believe it is going the wrong way. The coaches cease to be leaders when they allow the team to dictate terms. when the coaches allow players to defy them and still play. When coaches are "friends" before coaches. All perspective is lost. I may be wrong but I think that Matthews has gone as far as he can go in Vidor. It is time for a new direction and a new attitude. I know many of the athletes like him but If we are EVER going to compete at a level like Dayton or PNG we are going to have to start fresh. :-\
