Week 0 Signal travels to East Ham! Here We Go!

SM goes 3 and out the runs up the middle great play calling. EH starting QB is out.

[smeagle1]

End of 3rd 14-13 with SM driving and EH players dropping on almost every snap.

21-13 SM

 

Have to send prayers to the EH QB it was a hard shot and his leg got caught up from what I see on the sideline it looks like he could be out for awhile with a knee injury.

21-19 with 6:49 left. SM secondary is not looking good at all.

28-19 SM with 3:04 left

Takeaways from tonight SM needs some serious work in secondary and kickoff and punt coverage. On offense we simply need to hold on to the the ball!!!

AC is on max hi. I thought I was going to cramp up walking to car.

Both teams made a lot of mistakes. A lot of cramping up in second half. The refs were horrible both ways the whole game. #2 did a good job for the Canes but sure would have like to seen this one finish with #10 in there. Both teams have a lot to look forward to. Good luck to the Eagles the rest of the way.

Congrats to Signal! The better team won. Both teams had 1st game mistakes. Canes will be OK Signal will be a very good football team.

That was ugly.  Nobody hurt too bad I don't think.  Your QB got folded up pretty good, though.  Hope he's okay. 

Can't turn the ball over that much.  Signal was lucky.  With 9 total turnovers in a game, it then all comes down to luck.  Who turns the ball over when and points off turnovers.  Can't leave the outcome of a game to luck. Can't wait to see the stats on this one. 
 

Don't know why we didn't send a LB more often.  It worked when we did, and it worked for Central.

 

Shoutout to #6 Hensley on a number of outstanding plays in the secondary.  Overall, except for the turnovers (and that is correctable) thought the Eagles looked pretty darned good.

 

Good luck to the Canes from here on out.

Great job Signal!  The guys that ran the most all summer and didn't cramp up won.  Thinking Menzel and Moon might be able to hang with the soccer guys.  We're playing two 80 minute select soccer games at 11:00 and 1:50 tomorrow and 2 more Sunday in brutal heat.  Granted no helmets and pads, but also no huddles and time-outs!  Not belittling football players, but 102.3 kept talking about how hot it was and players dropping like flies!  Get them in shape!

Even my Eagles were cramping.  Not used to seeing that.

 

Both teams (and the ref's ) need to do a better job of pushing fluids.  You shouldn't wait until the player asks for fluid.  You squirt it into there mouths every chance you get.  I heard Bledsoe had a 30 minute delay for a heat index that was too high.

It's tough starting the season this early.
