WillieTheWildcats Posted September 21, 2019 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2019 Oak Ridge fought hard for as long as they could but West wore them down. This season is not over by a long shot. We can and should finish third in the Region and then who knows what will happen. Heck of a lot of work to be done but if they Cats want to do it good things can still happen. RWR! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With two receivers??? Horrible man just horrible! Again deep balls was inaccurate again.. no Stewart idk what happened he got more passes last year with a better squad??? Playbook has been horrible for awhile now! I think the playbook needs a complete change!!!!! Starting with to be continued on next post..... Defines to me what/why running up the middle in pistol is bad? Didn't West High do that? What would any WR have done against that squad tonight? Stewart may run a 5.2 fourty so not sure what that would accomplish ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with Elite though, I’d like to see both Jackson & Romano in the backfield some. Just gives a defense another guy to worry about. In our offense we are pretty much wasting Romano because our passing attack is really below average, so he’s not touching the ball hardly at all. Put him in the backfield along with Kendall and he’s touching the ball at least 5 times a game. Looks like the rest of our season against above average teams is just gonna have to be a ball control offense to keep the opposing teams offense off the field because our offense just isn’t able to sustain long drives. Sadly, there’s just not much to work with out there to be frank. On the bright side, Kendall Jackson is a baller. Imagine that kid as a SR with 2 full years in the weight room. We are looking at our next D1 athlete folks. That kid is a stud. He was punishing tacklers tonight and that’s a tough a$& defense he was putting a hurting on. Didn't Romano haul In 8 passes last week for 2 tds? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romano and Jackson in the backfield together might be a good idea but it wouldn't have mattered one bit tonight. You're right about ball control offense because OR HAS NO SPEED!!!!!!! To me OR had to try to run it tonight because the West DBs were way faster and more athletic than the OR receivers. OR couldn't run it outside because those two SEC defenders were outside on each side so running up the middle was the only option, and it wasn't a good option. I do agree about Jackson, he is a stud and he's tough. Unfortunately, he's not very fast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STILLNUM1 Posted September 21, 2019 Report Share Posted September 21, 2019 Its amazing as bad as the Oak Ridge offense is that they played right with one of the best teams in the state.Its 14-7 3rd qtr when the busted coverage gave West their last TD.Then offense gave them 3 pts.And I still don't know what happened on the 2nd TD by West.But I give the defense a lot of credit because the offense put them in bad spots over and over and they didn't quit.And the last 10 pts came after we lost our best Dlineman.I still don't have a clue as to what our DBs are being coached to do.We give WRs 10 yr cushion and then miss tackles.Why we would give up 5-10 yds so easy is beyond me and our DBs still get burnt deep.But the real problem is that offense.Without a doubt the play calling is still bad but the Oline don't help.K.Jackson was the best player we had tonight and had to break 2 or 3 tackles at the line of scrimmage to gain any yards.He will be a star the next couple of years if he keeps improving like he has.The pass game is so bad and I don't see it getting any better.Our QB throws into double and triple coverage way to much and just has a hard time finding the right guy.But in his defense the line is bad and the play calling is worse.Our OC is the WORST on 3rd or 4th and short.Huge play in 3rd qtr when its 3rd and short 2 at midfield and we throw a deep ball.The talent is not good enuff to compete with the best teams this yr but we can still coach way better on offense.And give Romano more carries.He is being wasted at WR if we cant get him the ball.He should get at least 10 carries a game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why can't he play both? Put him in the backfield some, end of story. Doesn't mean you have to stop playing him @ wideout. This isn't rocket science. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
