Polk looked pretty good friday at the scrimmage....they scored four times and two of them were blown cover by er and then other two were ?'s because the the ball never crossed the line on both td's..but the officals made the call you got live with it......but er defense scored three times on a int and two fumble rec and all three were taking to the house...polk defense did pretty well against er offense...but it did look like er offense did struggle a little bit...but there is plenty of time before they open up at silverdale...so overall polk had a good scrimmage...er had a ok scrimmage

Polk was the better team and their defense was tough--I didnt want to say anything about the tds that were called -1 i could live with but the one where er held them from the 1 yard line on 3 downs and the qb ran wide on 4th down was terrible-the ref came in from behind not even where he was suppose to be lined up at and signaled td--I came to 2 home games last year and by far er had the worst officiating i have ever seen and it seems to not have changed--the offense for er has a long way to go but i did see some signs of hope--er cant throw it very well at this point and that seems to hurt them when people can load up on the run. I still like the way both teams got after it and the young kids were entertaining also. good luck to both teams .---Dont get me wrong I am not saying officials was what hurt er, that was polk I just know the er kids get frustrated when they worked so hard on the goaline stand and then the ref. blows the call--Polk still was the better team reguardless.

    • Deja vu all over again, 7 yrs apart. SMDH Does anybody talk to each other?
    • OK, well, that’s because two quarterbacks can’t start. That’s football 101. The main quarterback won the starting job, so he was on varsity, and the Seymour transfer did not win the starting job. He played some varsity. He was mainly junior varsity, and he balled out when healthy, so for the starting quarterback who’s been starting varsity since his freshman year, if you have any form of proof that he’s gotten worse, somehow, whether that means stats or whatnot, please feel free to share.
    • They’ve both gotten worse. I’ve seen enough games to know that. 
    • The only two transfers that Bearden has gotten that went on to play college football were a defensive back from Karnes, who transferred here way before the new coaching staff got here, and a running back from Carter, who went on to play at Maryville College. Both players received those offers while at Bearden, and both players got a diploma from Bearden High School. Therefore, they are Bearden kids, and you can’t do anything about that.   The transfer from Seymour didn’t win the job, what do you expect two quarterbacks to start at the same time? He played great on JV when he could stay healthy, and when he came in on varsity, he did great. The quarterback position is definitely going to be in good hands when the current starting quarterback leaves, but until then, they’re just going to be battling it out like every good quarterback competition does. The current starting quarterback has his flaws, and that is in the pass game, but what he doesn’t have flaws is running and scrambling, and if you go back and watch any game, which I’m sure you didn’t watch any, we used him very often, and when we needed a deep ball, we brought in the transfer from Seymour. The starting quarterback last year will be a senior this year, and the Seymour transfer will be a junior, so the Seymour transfer is definitely going to get his spotlight. He may even win the job this year. Football isn’t about who the newspaper thinks is the best kid. The best kid in the position will win the starting job, and I trust the coaching staff more than a newspaper or article to pick my starting QB.
    • I mean, we’ve only gotten two transfers that went on to play college football, one who went to UT Martin came his second semester junior year before the new coaching staff was here, and the other one went on to play at Maryville College, in which I don’t believe he had any interest prior to transferring.
