Come on, seriously, how did DB let this one get away from them?

DB had a good game plan.  Had they stuck to it when Alcoa made the score 14-7 instead of going for a tie before halftime maybe it stays close at least through the 3rd.  I think sticking with the "slow down" mode after halftime was ill-advised.  Alcoa has too many weapons on both sides of the ball to stall the game when you are behind 2 scores.  Alcoa made DB very one-dimensional pretty quick in the 2nd half.  They have some good athletes, but I think their coaching is average at best right now.  Plus Alcoa is just that good this year.  Good luck to DB here on out and the DB fans I talked to were very gracious in the loss.

I feel DB’s #13 wasn’t used enough. He is an outstanding QB but wasn’t allowed to throw the ball hardly at all. Great for Alcoa but to bad for him.

Check that on the smart part.DB should have kept the ball on the ground and run the first half out.

yes we should have ran the clock out, but you wont understand what i am about to say unless you are a db fan or parent with a young man on this team. our stupid coaching caused this horrible playcalling at end of half,rather than run clock out and know we r getting it right back n 3rd q, instead our ignorant offensive cordinator called these next crucial plays and we were doomed after that, everyone knows it and we had alcoa on there heels which also you know it, we would have scored n 3rdq guranteed without a doubt, but playcalling killed that and our qb should have not been told to pass ball. I know those r harsh words against our coaching staff but this terrible playcalling is every game week after week and we as parents of db football players cant understand how they are not held accountable for this type of coaching,they are getting away with it. Alcoa capitalized on turnover and we all know what happened rest of game,and congrats to alcoa for dominating rest of game, we had u in a bad spot just like last year and once again like last year conservative playcalling comes back to stop our boys from getting control of game to our own playcalling dooming us. we were not suppose to play that well tnite against alcoa but we did and very well until pcalling reared its ugly head and dont think for a minute our boys dont know whats going own, they r disgusted with it. and then you coaches have enough nerrve to yell at our boys on sidelines and blame them and tell them they will b running laps come monday there r several of you coaches including offensive cordinator should b looking for a different career come monday. you cost us a chance of upsetting top team in state again when that first year off cordinator started his stupid pcalling again tonight. for anyone that reads and thinks this quote was harsh and it is if you were in our positions from last year to this you would only undersdtand and if not dont really care. i gurantee rest of year our team will play well and possibly have chance to go to playoffs and beyond our team deserves it so get your head out of your rump and give our guys a chance with 6A HIGH SCHOOL COACHING LIKE THEY DESERVE because you were trusted with these positions and a lot of us are not happy with some of you so get it right,

    • 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.
    • An FYI: To see how an opponent has done against another opponent since 2001- go to the game by clicking on one of the teams. Click the G beside the game. For example, Milan: The info will show you the previous matchups and other info.
    • All these college signees went yo other schools for 3 years, were getting college offers then transferred to Bearden. It’s not like this staff did much to develop them.    The BBall coaches son and the Seymour transfer were some of the most talented QBs in the region, and you guys developed them into QBs who might complete one pass a game.
