Cougar14.2 Posted November 14, 2021 Report Share Posted November 14, 2021 1 minute ago, Unwoke said: I find it amusing that for as long as I can remember you’ve been on this forum trashing the slot - t offense calling it a dinosaur offense. Then when that offense drops 60 on your team you change your tune and excuses. I believe Vidors unathletic kids are 2 and 2 when playing Crosby but I digress. The Vidor Coaches are waiting for your blueprint for Offensive success. Yeah, but the guy you just lost to is 3-0 against it, including 2-0 at Crosby. He just beat you with a lot less talented team than he’ll have next year. Vidor has never put 60 on Crosby with that offense and has had four tries, what does that tell you in comparison to your talent level vs LH who’s had one opportunity? The blueprint is to get kids like Calallen or SA Wagner has at the line of scrimmage so you could at least lose in the semifinals. Otherwise, you revisit things like I said in my earlier post.

Now the offense has been very underwhelming in recent history. This year was better than last season but kind of stalled at the end when we lost our best backs. Too predictable? Yea probably. Don’t pass enough? Yea probably. Crazy that they surprised everyone and threw the ball on every down on the last drive of the season and we were all like wtf… Why didn’t we run it? How do you address the problems above, well there are plenty of Vidor fans calling for changes and some made it crystal clear what they want in this very thread. I am still baffled on that last possession 1st down on our own 25 with 1:47 to go an we throw 4 straight times. Lol Oh well ….it is what it is.

So the coaches at Vidor need to recruit better? …… boy that sounds like some solid advice. Lol . I am sure if you call them an tell them that they’ll get right on it. Thanks for the humor 14.2 . Good luck to your Coogs the rest of the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piratevillain Posted November 14, 2021 Report Share Posted November 14, 2021 This season was such a fun ride and see the Pirates have so much success especially with it being my nephews last season. It was definitely a tough loss Friday, and som of the play calling at the end of the game, I'll never understand. But it is what it is, and a reason why I'm not a coach! lol and I'll never make excuses for what could have been. Great season Pirates, can't wait til next year!

NoNeckNic479 Posted November 15, 2021 Report Share Posted November 15, 2021 Man-O-Man do I love all the coaches on the forum. Injuries (yes, I know part of the game) and losing their HC hours before kickoff was a losing combination for the Pirates Friday night. Coach Mathews does not suit up and play BUT those young men respond to him like no other. He's their biggest fan, motivator, and the man that leads them into battle....so losing a head coach like him is tough for a bunch of young men that look up to him and turn to him with things get tough. To them men, women, has-beens and never-was to question the playing calling and thinking of Vidors coaches...all I have to say to you is....what play calling, head coaching experience do you have?? And to please submit your resume for a Head Coaching position at any school. As much emphasis as people put on winning and losing...football is about more. Its about discipline, building character, relationships that will last a lifetime, and maybe most importantly its about accountability. To the players....Men hold your head up high, be proud, keep moving forward, and always stay in the fight. This season is NOT a failure by any means. You should be proud of what you have accomplished! Hagar 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your probably right. Hope that he’s doing well. Man talk about bad timing for an illness to hit you. It was probably heart breaking for him not to be there for his boys.

Tim Riggins Posted November 15, 2021 Report Share Posted November 15, 2021 Yes terrible timing for sure. Still doesn't feel right but got a referral to a gastroenterologist today. Feels awful about missing the game, especially missing the seniors final game, his first absence in 30 years for workouts, practice or game. Gotta be tough on him for sure. piratevillain 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burning 3 TO's and the last one with 3 minutes in the game when CH was punting on 4th down at THAT! Also throwing it 4 straight times deep in CH territory, that's something Mathews would have never done. But cmon man.. we could use the injury crutch all we want - but turds roll down hill, play calling was a bigger issue than injuries last Friday.

I ask the same to you...What experience do you have calling plays and or coaching at the varsity level and beyond? So much comes into factor when you have backups in the game and running a 2 min offense. Yes, Vidor moved the ball much better in the 2nd half but when it came down to crunch time...less than 2 min. and no timeouts the offensive coordinator and whoever was acting head coach made the decision to throw the ball. Is that because of injuries, not having faith that the personnel in the game would know what to do in those situations, or could it have been that the coaches know the players better than you, me and anyone else???

How much coaching experience do you need to know the personnel for an XP attempt or for clock management?🤔 Backups and "no faith" in th personnel is a lame duck excuse, cause if injuries and personnel we're a huge problem, we would've lost to Lumberton as well.
