Silsbee passing is pretty bad honestly. I know Foster can throw better and his bread and butter is the PA pass and deep ball. Unfortunately, there isn't a Cartwright, Taylor, Martin, Turk walking out on that field. He has to connect on those wide open 8-10 yard throws to keep the defense from stocking the box. Silsbee may wanna give the other kid a shot as i think he could be faster and have a better arm. I think he is a sophomore. Still early in the season but it wouldn't hurt to let him play with the #1s.

When Arline returns, please keep #24 Jones on defense. I think he will earn himself a scholarship there. Silsbee should win their next 2 before a WOS showdown. 2nd place in district and a 4 or 5 round playoff run.

Watching the game tonight really makes me wonder sometimes. Ik everyone wants there team to win every game. But sometimes a loss is just as gud as a win.take Silsbee for instance the last 2 yrs the loss to wo has prepared them for long playoff runs. Me personally ik everyone wants a QB change.i can't see it. Ik the kid isn't making every throw that everyone wants.but sometimes play calling hurts him more than anything.so everyone sees the flaws and not the gud. For instance tonite the score.it wasnt that bad if ppl truly watched the game.first off the biggest difference that really was the determining factor was field position.in the first half the whole half they started drives from inside there 20. And on a couple plays penalties hurt them.but the biggest difference in the game Silsbee didn't catch the ball on the return.they dropped 4 of them. PG didn't dominate them.every team has things to clean up. Im sorry but the QB takes too much heat for play calling at times.why not run a combination route with 2 wr or more quick outs or stop routes. With every team u have to play to each kid strength. And not call a play bcz u think u have a one on one matchup u think u might win. I said it last yr and ima said it again whenever this team season comes to an end it want be bcz the qb blew game it will be bcz another team made one more play than them.

I feel ya but the truth hurts....

Can't hit the slant....

Can't hit the out route....

Slow release only leaves the PA or the fly...

It's not a knock...just the facts.  When you're weak on other aspects of offensive schemes you have to have the other to balance it out.  It was good to be faced off with top tier defense...

It will makes them better in the end but Carthage and PG will be waiting.  If you want the ship you have to be balanced

Super impressed with defensive schemes tonight, it has the makings to really define the season if the offense can find it's rhythm.

Once again like the last year or two,   there is the big calls for a qb change.  The thing is you have a qb that has been to 2 straight state semi finals.  He has proven himself to be a winner.  He starts off slow each year but gets better. He just faced a team that has been to 3 straight state championships winning 2 of them.  Tuff to replace a guy in a case like that.

With that said,  his passing game has never been that impressive overall.  Accuracy overall has been questionable.  His strength has been his receivers honestly.  The past couple years he has had a receiver or two that he could throw the ball up and trust to go get it.  This year noone appears to be able to step into that position.  Several missed opportunities either drops or bad throws.  Maybe a returning Gilder can step into that role.

I do like what I have seen from Brisbane and would definitely like to see him get his chance.  Especially if our passing game is going nowhere.  He definitely throw a better ball.

When Gilder comes back. He should see some time  at QB.

@BMTSoulja1 any thoughts on this one? 

Well, it is Pleasant Grove.  But at the same time, you know I y’all about this all the time.   Big time players show up in turn it game.  Well, Foster has not showed up in the big rivalry game last week, nor this game against PG with state recognitions.  He’s throwing these balls too short or over throwing them and throwing interceptions into traffic.  He’s a 3 year starter on two state finalists teams.  I expect more and I cannot cut him any slack.  
 

As much as it hurts me to say, you need to get that backup QB some reps before district starts and Foster will need to be the Ultimate teammate and let it happen.  I don’t know what’s been going on with him but he’s clearly regressed.

Silsbee's lack of a passing game will be their downfall this season.

Foster finished 7-20, 70 yards, 2 INT's

Brisbane was 2-5, 43 yards, 1 TD

 

Pleasant Grove defense is just downright nasty!

Lol, I thought Silsbee defense played just as well. What abt the 4 miss timed kick off. And the 84 yd TD catch that changed the whole game.its early and teams are still trying to work things out.i truly believe if this game was played late in the year it would be a better game.

Who knows. It may be a shot in the arm that helps him focus and get better. Nothing like a little competition.

Silsbee run game will get a big shot in the arm when Arline returns. I would like to see Miller and Lockett in the backfield along with Jones. Miller needs more carries. 

I would like to see Dodd more in the backfield. It’s evident they have several RB if given the chance to compete could be beneficial to the team. Miller is a good kid but putting him over the other RB on team is a bad move.

Dodd did play well, but to be honest, it was garbage time at that point. By all means give him (and Miller) the ball a little more to see if they can keep it up.

We've got an endless stable of running backs. I almost want to see Jones focus on just defense now. He had PG running the ball away from him last night.

Miller is a freshman and has time to develop. There are other RB who have the speed and talent who can do just as well IF given the chance. Dodd and Martin deserve the opportunity to compete. I’ve yet to see Martin run the ball on offense. But after speaking with the kid and his mom. It’s not a main factor for him while at Silsbee.
