nickknx865 Posted August 22, 2009 Report Share Posted August 22, 2009 Well, this isn't exactly what I had in mind for the opening week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osunut2 Posted August 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2009 Powell wins 31-0. A pretty sloppy game, all around. Powell had the ball inside the SD 35 on every single drive, except for two drives (one being the last drive of the game). The Panthers have a stable full of solid running backs, with Deshawn Mobley leading the way. Their depth really showed after halftime, running all over the SD defense. I think the running game will be a bit better than last year. The receiving corps looked good, although there were a couple of dropped passes. Both quarterbacks made some plays, but there were too many turnovers. The one thing that this team lacks on offense, versus last season, is the ability to throw the deep ball (not to mention Kier Houston's escapability). I was impressed with the McPhetridge's mobility at QB however. SD looked, well, very young. They even looked pitiful at times. SD had just 3 first downs all night. They were dominated at the line of scrimmage and had no ability to throw the football (only one pass attempt). They actually had a chance to be tied at the half, after #27 had a long run down to the 1 yard line. SD fumbled on the next play. That was the story of the night for SD. The Cherokees probably turned the ball over 6 times (Powell turned it over 4 times, I think). There were a few occasions where the QB took the snap and couldn't make a clean handoff, which led to a handful of fumbles. SD only had 100 yards of total offense (half gained on that long run). Kudos to Powell's defense for dominating up front and pitching the shutout, but it was clear that SD has a limited playbook. I think I counted 3, maybe 4 plays that were run repeatedly (Read option-right, read option-left, read option-middle, QB keeper). That's Clark Duncan football for you - repeatedly running between the tackles. Powell will definitely have a tough game versus Fulton next week. Good luck Panthers!

footballjunkie Posted August 22, 2009 Report Share Posted August 22, 2009 S-D is in need of a quarterback and line. The defense did a good job of holding Powell but if you are on the field 90 percent of the time you are bound to get tired and that is what happened late in the game. S-D gives the ball to Powell inside the 50 every time. The defense was just tired, they might not be big but they were fast. I give my hats off to Powell for playing a decent game, but long story short South Doyle will not win many without a quarterback who can hand the ball off and throw the ball.

nickknx865 Posted August 22, 2009 Report Share Posted August 22, 2009 Well, South-Doyle did lose some pretty darn good linemen last year. The scheme that they're going to have to run this year is going to have to be quick, short throws, and a draw play or two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keesgrad01 Posted August 22, 2009 Report Share Posted August 22, 2009 The quaterback I seen at the game last night was not Jason Conley. But I did see Jason conley playing DE. What is the deal I watched him play quaterback last year and I must say he has been the best QB I have seen since I left. I was excited about everything I have been reading about him in the paper and all the prep books. Last year he was about the only running game they had at times and threw the ball better than your average QB. Do not get me wrong they were not great last year but they were some what ballanced. From what I seen last night you can not tell me this kid beat Conley out. Is he in the dog house with Duncan. I did notice several players on defense that played there butts off #s 54 , 12, 58 , 43, 31. Except for #8 can not say to much for the DBs. They were on the field the entire game. If anyone can tell me whats going on at the QB spot please let me know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keesgrad01 Posted August 23, 2009 Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 Just got in about 30 min. ago. I was told this afternoon that Jason Conley has been bad sick this preseason and may have had sugery on his right arm. If anyone knows for sure please let me know. If this is true I really hate it for for him it looked like he had a shot at a great senior year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ObserverSD Posted August 23, 2009 Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 THAT'S A VERY GOOD QUESTION THAT EVERYONE,AND I MEAN EVERYONE IS ASKING. JASON DID HAVE A MEDICAL ISSUE THAT CAUSED HIM TO BE AN OBSERVER THE FIRST FEW DAYS OF PRACTICE,(WHEN THEY WERE IN SHORTS AND HELMETS),BUT HE WAS CLEARED AND READY WHEN THE PADS WERE PUT ON. AGAIN,EVERYONE IS ASKING THE SAME QUESTION. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
