Your coach knows

Your coach knows

How are we still talking about Crosby/Vidor from a few years ago?

Callin him Shug and you've known him all of 5 minutes 
Fans cheer, coaches coach and players play. Enjoy being 7-1, there are some teams that would kill for that. Be thankful for what you have, others aren't so fortunate.

I'll give you GCM and Lee.  Blowouts from start to finish.  As I recall, the backups did play in those games except for the QB position.  Those are fair games for questions and criticism.  The other games were not blowouts until mid-4Q.  Go back and check the game summaries.  Lumberton kept hanging around, Vidor led us at the half and when PN-G had some separation in the 3Q, Vidor struck back in the 4Q with a score and the Pirates had already shown they were willing to go with an onside kick.  Against Silsbee, the back-up QB did play and was 3-4 passing and he rushed for a TD.  I agree the backup is outstanding.  He can close out games...my goodness, if PN-G needed him, he could lead the team to a win from start to finish.  The Indians are lucky to have him.  But, to complain that the starting QB is doing too much, that is not what the facts prove.  The Indians have fed the RB all season long...that won't stop unless the defense forces it on the zone read.  It's not about a one man show, its about executing the offense.  See Vidor and Central games where #2 could have ran all night long, but instead he pulled the back from the zone/read run/pass option and hit McZeal for long TDs
It is not about individual records.  That is a guess by fans.  It's about team wins and losses.  The QB is executing the offense and taking what is open.  And, he is very good at it.  He gets the ball to the right people in open space...and yes, #5, 6, 10, 11, 12, and the others are playmakers.  I'm not arguing with you, but some PN-G fans just like to complain about anything Coach Faircloth does.  He loses and fans want a new coach; he wins and fans don't like the way he puts a W in the books.  Like I said, some fans - not all, but some - could get a free bucket of gold and they would complain about the bucket.  Yet, when it comes time to contribute funds to a new indoor practice facility, those same fans are suddenly quiet.  They want others to do the heavy lifting so they can keep complaining.
 
Go Indians.  Peace.
 

Indian fans ... complaining just to complain.  The game with Central was not nailed down until late in the 4Q.  28-14 against Central is not a sure thing.  Two big plays and the score is tied.  Once we got to 35-14, it was mid-4Q.  It wasn't a 42-0 game at the half.  When the game is competitive, I like the ball being in the hands of the team's best player.  Not all of the QB runs were designed QB keepers.  Some were; others were not.  Some of the keepers show the growth of #2 as a super soph QB, i.e., he ran the ball because he did not want to force a pass and risk a turnover.
Indian fans could be married to Cindy Crawford or Halle Berry and would complain she can't cook ... or you could get a bucket of gold and complain about the bucket.
If #2 did not run, some fans would be on message boards complaining that Coach Faircloth refused to put the ball in the hands of his best player.  And, from the three games I've seen this season, (GCM, Lee and PAM), several times #2 has created something out of nothing to create positive plays and score points.  I'll take that and being 7-1 with a good shot to win out and roll into the playoffs with momentum.
Go Indians.  Peace.

That 1 kid is pretty darn special 

The RB Hughes is 4th in 22-5A, WR Riggs is second in 22-5A and McZeal is 4th. Roschon might make the engine go but he is getting outstanding play from the guys around him too. 

If a QB has the ability run, allow him to run. Tim Tebow, Collin Klein, Drenard Robinson in the recent past. Lamar Jackson (Louisville) and Quinton Flowers (USF) this season each have over 700 yards rushing. Not sure what's being implied about RJ being ran so much
Go watch Auburn Nick Marshall a few years back, North Dakota State with Carson Wentz or Oregon with Marcus Mariota. 
Use the strengths of the guys you have... Just my opinion

Insert score for PAM
Lee 0

Have you seen Goose Creek CISD football this year? Not impressed 

Big time game in 21-5A

PAM has had some studs: Charles, Johnson, Holmes, Dauphine, Martin and now Hines. Them boys in PA are blessed up on the RB department.

If Nederland/Central is able to make it:
D1:
PAM vs Porter
Nederland/Central vs New Caney
D2:
PNG vs Barbers Hill
Vidor vs Crosby
 
If Livingston makes it:
D1:
PAM vs Porter
PNG vs New Caney
D2:
Vidor vs Barbers Hill
Livingston vs Crosby

Ozen is out as well. (head to vs Ned and Central) (Also -20 vs Ned and -21 vs Central)
Central has Livingston, Lee and PNG left and are currently 2-3 in district.
Livingston has PAM , Central and Ozen left and are 3-3 in district.
Ned has Lumberton and PNG left and are 3-3 in district.
If Ned wins out they are in and the rest of this probably won't matter. (Assuming PAM beats Livingston)
If it ends up a three way tie it goes to point differential.
Ned:                          
-1 vs Livingston
+7 vs Central
+ 6 so far
Central:
-7 vs Ned
(Final score in Central vs Livingston game)
-7 so far
Livingston:
+1 vs Ned
(Final score in Central v Livingston game)
+1 so far.
So I think it would go like this:
If Central beats Livingston by 14 they are in.  -7 (currently) +14 (Livingston gm) would equal +7 total
  If Central wins by less than 14 , Ned is in.   -7 (currently) +13 or less (Livingston gm) would equal +6 or less total. (Livingston would be out and it would go head-to-head, Ned won the game.)
  If Livingston wins they are in. (+1 vs Ned) 

Big time game in 21-5A

Man... this would've been for playoff seeding a couple years back...
What a shame... SMH

It really comes down to the following 3 teams (someone fact check me like Anderson Cooper please): Livingston, Nederland and Central
Livingston owns the Head to Head tiebreaker vs Nederland due to 1-0 forfeit for the ineligible player. If Central find a way to beat Livingston and Nederland can win at least 1 of their last 2, there's a chance of a log jam of 4-4 teams at the end of the regular season. It gets into point differentials after that, and I'm not up to date on those. 
Central could win out and throw a wrench in Nederland's plans, as can Livingston. The only way Nederland can "for sure" make it is by winning out. 
The only teams that are mathematically out are Lumberton and Lee. 

PAM has had some studs: Charles, Johnson, Holmes, Dauphine, Martin and now Hines. Them boys in PA are blessed up on the RB department.

I would practice on different pass plays. Protection schemes. It won't be really competitive, so why not get some different looks at passing play.  Can't keep doing the same ole same.

I heard some of this after the game in the parking lot. Lmao!

But he knows!

Most teams have 2

I wouldn't call dude a clown , but it gets me when others make those claims , I've shuttled Grandmas , Aunts , Uncles to games because of no transportation , half of those kids have no father figure at home , so Men that are there daily (coaches) provide something of a relief , ijs , sometimes its bigger thsn X's & O's ,I'm pulling for PAM but if PNG won , than congrats , and I'll eat my crow lol (with ketchup), but yeah , this game is the one I was most worried about , because Faircloth  can coach his arse off ,  I'm ready , I'll be there in my gear
