Covington started this season playing better football on the defensive side of the ball than they had the last two years. Losses to Milan and South Gibson County can be tied directly to the knee injury suffered by Caleb Winfrey. With Winfrey healthy at linebacker, IMHO Covington would now be undefeated and rolling along. That is strictly my opinion. He was unable to stay in the game last week vs. McNairy county, and came out limping. Milan and SGC both beat us with Winfrey on the sideline.

So, the question is whether Coach JR Kirby and staff have made enough adjustments on both sides of the ball to defeat either SGC or Milan if we meet again in the playoffs. The Chargers only lost by a single TD to each of them, so it's not impossible. The Chargers would have to tune up our offense enough to account for the loss of stopping power on the defensive side of the ball. We scored 37 against a pretty good McNairy County team last week. 

Of course, all the discussion is moot if the Chargers don't defeat Melrose tomorrow. I'm just saying that you shouldn't write off the Chargers quite yet.

Seems more like a fair question than hate. The last few playoffs haven't been good to PC.

I agree with everything you said ChargerFan.  Offense looked much better in a big game and Winfrey being out no doubt was a big blow.  I went by practice Tuesday and he was out there practicing so looks like he is ok.  

If we are trucking along with ease against Melrose, I would hope that they do not play him. I agree with you both, with Winfrey earlier in the season, the defense was the best I’ve seen at Covington. The defense is still dang good and he’s just 1 guy. But healthy, he’s scary good at that MLB position and does make a difference.

Injuries and coaching adjustments are part of the game and every team deals with them. SGC has had impact players injured and on the sidelines literally all season long. The regular season games between region 7-3a were great football games to watch. I know it's always harder to beat a team of similar capabilities twice so Covington and Milan will have their opportunities but SGC will be relentless on the field.  It will be a battle for sure.

Last few years has nothing to do with this year! But what I do know is our defense has finally caught up with our offense, taking alot of pressure off that side of the ball. End result first 10-0 season in school history, so we'll see what happens its one game at a time for us. But yeah his whole comment about question is who will upset PC was pure hate!!!

We beat lil East with 80% of our offense missing. Y'all haven't seen PC full go this year, which that is scary for y'all. I know you got this hope that y'all can pull a Stratford this year, but truth is ALL AIN'T GOOD ENOUGH!!!

Chill out little guy. I'll make sure I get back with you tonight.

I don't think you can talk about another teams post season success when East Nashville has a postseason record of 3-7 Compared to Pearl Cohn at 40-19 with 2 gold balls and 3 Silver balls... Or making it farther or putting you out in the playoffs

Nothing but respect for PC and region 5. I know it is tough sledding over there. But there will be a battle tested region 7 team waiting in the semis and it will be a war.

      Began as a discussion, and evolved into a trainwreck...   Don't know how many of the TC "old guard" are left, but I feel for y'all.   Everybody has to get the last word... no matter the cost and sometimes the cost is high.

      He may have possibly said that to get the best out of him. Back when I was in school word got out I was going to transfer and Coach Story popped off and ask Coach Wilson in front of the team if Maryville was going to get a jock strap in return on this trade. That got back to me and I got fired up and stayed just to show them up. Now today Coach Story is one of my best friends.

      Dylan's Dad, I'm glad you replied. I wanted to reply but wasnt willing to take the bait. There were 20 wrestlers on the team. I may be mistaken and correct me if I'm wrong but I believe 5 of the 20 attend McCallie right now and one will next year. At most, there are/were 6 kids on that team who attend McC. That leaves 14 other team members who have ZERO affiliation with McC (outside of maybe some friends) who represented our state to the best of their ability and wrestled their butts off that weekend. That weekend was a first for Tennessee and obviously a small step in the right direction for us as a state. Congratulations TEAM TN BLACK!
