Durn, reading those Raider stats is enough to drive a DC to drink.  Good teams can run or pass successfully.  Really good teams can do both, and that’s the Raiders.  Long, time eating drives culminating in a score is a must for the Pirates.  I seriously doubt we can stop their offense, so “keepaway” is a must, plus a few breaks - fumbles or maybe a pick.  Simply put, Vidor will have to outscore them - Don’t see a defensive struggle.

I would only caution the Raider Faithful to look at the opponents against whom they've been racking up the stats. I think they're doing awesome, but Vidor will be the first real test...

I know Splendora & Nacogodoches were cripples, but HF is solid & Tatum no slouch.  Don’t try & soft soap the Raiders accomplishments.  You ain’t fooling & old fooler.  Vidor will have to play mistake free football to even have a remote chance.  For example, Ltown could give up 2 turnovers & still have a shot of winning.  If Vidor is minus 2 in turnovers, it’s over - Ltown probably wins easy.  That was their demise in the first 3 games & the key to the 3 wins.

Play mistake free ball again Pirates and you might win this thing.

I will say while we've had a few inopportune interceptions I honestly don't remember a lost fumble although it could have very well happened. Powell as a tendency to throw that occassional interception especially since he has a cannon for an arm and loves to use it. The defense has produced a few fumbles in a couple of games. We won't turn over the ball alot. If we can clean up our penalties we'll be extremely dangerous. Lumberton plays fast going no huddle most of the game and it is working for us.

I know it’s all about the matchups, but Lumberton beat HF who beat WOS. 

Btw, if “Nah” is the best you got for a reply, I should just let this one go…

Not sure how/what the “nah” addresses.  I figure he’s saying Nah, Vidor couldn’t beat them (Tatum & HF), but I’m not sure.

Come 10/10:30p tonight, we'll know a lot about both teams.

Keys to success.... win the clock, force a turnover or 2, play assignment football (secondary) and penalties to a minimum.  If Vidor can do that (and they have been trending in that direction) then Vidor wins.

You start off with shouldn’t compare scores but proceed to do that. If that’s the best you got I should just let this one go….
