A lot of people are not mentioning one thing about the Warriors struggles. Special teams. They have not been up to par. Last week there was a 1 yard punt that hurt them against Tyner. Yes, everyone knows they have talented skill guys and a subpar line but it's the special teams factor that is hurting them as well.

I'm not trying to be mean but it won't take world beaters to push around the purple team up front.. Marion has some speed though. And that's why I think they make it a better game than some think. They also have a pretty solid guy that can go up and get it at wideout. I really look forward to seeing how this one plays out.

Hero like I said we need to meet. Bass hates it when you question his opinion or football knowledge. I think you're right. I'll say again, I thought it would be next year for us but these guys have really impressed. In the past you could always pick a glowing weakness with us but these YOUNG guys and our upperclassmen are pretty solid everywhere. We may need additional dependable receivers but who can cover kennemore

Marion has no back that can pound it up the middle like here in recent years makes their offense one dimensional..you shut down the edges their offense is done. Can't pass to Hale running for your life or laying on your back. Coalfield by as many as they please. 

Good observation

Can a west tnt Golden Tide fella jump in and ask a question? Is Marion just in a severe down year? I'm seeing Coalfield by a couple of T.D.S?Is this just a lil ribbin or a true possibility?

Just a small school who lost a lot of good players these past few years. Inexperienced line makes a big difference when your offense revolves around running the ball.

Agreed to an extent,but we are playing a ton of youngans this year also and it's being made like Marion isn't remotely competitive!?

MC has lost two games that they had double digit leads in during the 4th quarter.  The other loss was to SP and no it wasn't close.  This is the hardest schedule we have had in years while replacing a lot of good players but we do have talent and expect to be a threat in the playoffs.  This team could easily be 4-1.  As for Coalfield they look very good and haven't been challenged at all this year but I expect us to be competitive.

    • 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.
