McNairy @ Covington 9/29/23

[CHARGERFAN]

McNairy (1-5) visits Covington (4-2) this week. Massey predicts Covington will win this one 45-7. I do think that my Chargers can take this one.

Maybe this can be a game for my Chargers to get more work in on their passing game. Should  be an easy win.

[SpottedGoat]

I believe I'd have to take Covington in this matchup, while polishing the machine for bigger games to come.

[CHARGERFAN]

Cal-preps says the score will be 42-6.

[TrojanLC]

Score will be whatever Covington wants it to be. Definitely work on the passing game. Gonna need it for the playoffs!

[CHARGERFAN]

Kickoff in just over 2 hours. It’s homecoming for Covington. I hope Coach Kirby has them focused. Homecoming can be a big distraction.

42-7 Chargers at the half. Can you say running clock?

50-14 with 4:48 left.

Final 57-14.

Chargers travel to Liberty next week. What happened to the strong Liberty teams they had 10 or 12 years ago? They seem to be the weak team in this region now.

In '15 Liberty made the simi's, and in 16 they got the silver ball...in the seven seasons since they have totaled 5 wins so far and are working on their fourth consecutive winless season.

   Not trying to be funny, it's sad for the kids. 

   JMCSS literally and figuratively pulled the rug out from underneath a proud (if young) program by not funding athletics or supporting their coaches. Liberty had the world by the tail by being labeled a "Magnet School" within the boundaries of a large city, and able to pull (recruit) kids from all over the county. A long list of great coaches left Liberty from lack of support after playing for and winning state championships in multiple sports. JCM has now replaced Liberty as the jewel in JMCSS's crown, but has already had setbacks over coaches salary disputes with two legendary coaches packing their stuff and cutting ties... remains to be seen if they have learned (or care) from their mistakes.

Thanks for the info. So it was 7 or 8 years ago that they were good. I could not remember. I knew they walked all over our Covington squad a couple of times.

Oh, just a side note on the Covington-McNairy game. Late in the game the Chargers put in our subs. Freshman running back Jaheim Smith had one carry, but it went for 49 yards and a TD. He looked like the future of our running game to me. Y’all might want to remember that name.
