rikberry Posted August 13, 2016 Report Share Posted August 13, 2016 For MC, Saylors is a better back now than Henderson and just as good probably better on D. True that there is no replacement for Walters but teams never really replace any player. Improved line play will more than make up for the loss of Walters and the D will be better overall. The progression over the past few years for MC has been away from relying on one or two players to overall depth and program. Y'all will see that this year.

warriorhalloffamer3 Posted August 13, 2016 Report Share Posted August 13, 2016 I think Saylors is going to be at great back but not sure he better than Henderson overall as of right now. The key IMO is getting #40 more carriers. He should have gotten more last year. Mc offense will be fine this year just will take time to jell.

I'm not a warrior fan by any means but I will defend Logan and Josh any day. 2 stud ball players and no one and I mean no one on the Warriors team this year will come close to replacing those 2.

PurplePower68 Posted August 14, 2016 Report Share Posted August 14, 2016 Saylors is a very good back with tremendous upside and will get better every game. Henderson was a threat every time he touched the ball. Walt is one of those players who only comes around so often. Sampson will be a good one. Remember he is only a sophomore who is still learning the position. Kicking game is the biggest loss in my opinion. Not knocking any of the players we lost but with a good defense and making teams start on the 20 most of the time is a huge weapon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warriorhalloffamer3 Posted August 14, 2016 Report Share Posted August 14, 2016 Saylor going to be a great back. To me best receiver coming out of the backfield. Kid has great game speed. Different team this year but same results. Think they will have longer drives this year I stead of big play ability Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

warriorhalloffamer3 Posted August 14, 2016 Report Share Posted August 14, 2016 Yes can turn 5 yard pass into a td. Key will be get other players involved until qb catches up. That will come with experience. Teams will stack box this year until he gets feet wet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm shocked at the lack of love that many show the kids that have graduated. I'm not sure we can get closer than 2 TDs this year to Marion County, but ANYONE that thinks they have better weapons right now than Walters or Henderson has lost their mind. Is Saylors good? Absolutely the kid is a player, but he's still only a junior. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you get a hold of the wing stuff when you went subterranean? Somebody had been filling you full of mess. You should come over to Ronnies red eye and let me show you my Murphy Fair book. You think im joking but im not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely the kid is a player, but he's still only a junior. I agree with Famer. It will take time for offense to really click. There will be more long drives this year that will eat up clock. That's not a bad thing either. Veteran offensive line with a handful of good backs. Most teams we will play will have linemen going both ways and that will be a factor late in games. SP game should be a good one. You guys really looked good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rikberry Posted August 14, 2016 Report Share Posted August 14, 2016 Most casual observers see a football team as a zero sum group of individuals, hence the emphasis on who is going to replace who. I'm not saying that JH wasn't a great back, he was. But he and LW will be replaced, maybe by more than one player. Two years ago the same people were saying the same things about BZ. All the talk about irreplaceable MC players is really just skillethead wishful thinking. The team will be different but in my mind the production will be more than replaced. Mark my words, Saylors is going to be a goodin'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PurplePower68 Posted August 14, 2016 Report Share Posted August 14, 2016 Also congrats to our own Avila for winning fastest lineman (with only one cleat on too lol). In my opinion the kicking or throwing should have been first. Our kids weren't even off the field when they started lining up to run the 40. Saylors could have used a small breather after playing our qtr. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
