Dyersburg's Playoff Run

Recommended Posts

Dyersburg has injuries that will impact offensive capability.  The big question entering playoffs is will they be able to stay focused and not dwell on the loss of their senior QB in week 10.  Great kid, very good QB, but most importantly, a key leader.

On paper,  Dyersburg is more than good enough to make the semis.

Dyersburg has size and speed and depth. DL is big, strong, and hungry. Lightest guy is 240+(and dear to my heart) and they all are very active. QB that is out, also is a stud safety. The other starting safety is also out for the season. We’ve got depth and should be ok, just won’t be as aggressive as we were there. OL is big and stout, IF THE RIGHT PERSONNEL IS ON THE FIELD. Hopefully we put the right guys out there and quit screwing around so we don’t let the backup qb get hurt also. We’ve got speed, size, and experience. These guys have played a lot of games and won a lot of games. 25 seniors that have been successful since I was coaching them in the 3rd grade. They’ll bring it every week.

Torn acl while getting tackled running out of bounds with no time left on the clock in the 2nd quarter against Ripley. 

I watched it on youtube, and if it happened right before half, it was in the middle of the field and it looked like he was cutting in to make a move on the over pursuit. To say he was being tackled at the end of half running out of bounds, seems like your almost accusing it of being a dirty play, which it wasn't even close to being. The QB is a competitor and was trying to get another one in before half. Dyersburg is for real.

You are right….the tackle had nothing to do with the injury.  He planted his foot to avoid the tackle, which is where he tore it. 
 

I just hope Dyersburg fans don’t mull around thinking all is over and the negative emotions bleed over to the players.   Dyersburg bread and butter is not their offense, it is their defense.  And as the old saying goes, offense draws crowds, but defense wins championships. 

The community needs to let these kids know this season is not over and they need to let their opponents know just where the bread is buttered, every inch, every yard, every play. 
 

Old skool baby, old skool…..

    • 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.
