We were talking about that the other day. It's hard to imagine that Gamble doesn't pop a long one every now and then!!

How can you break a long run when every player on the field, in the stands, or for that matter the world knows he's getting the ball! We are one dimentional and everybody will not allow BG to beat them! We aint playing midget league!! We have players to make things happen we just need to get them the ball or put them in the game!

I totally agree Monte! We NEED to get Turner and Gamble on the field at the same time, whether that includes having Gamble in the slot and Turner at tailback, or going to some spilt back formations so the defense does not know who is getting the ball, we need to become more than just Gamble, Gamble, Gamble.

If you read those stats to someone who knew nothing of this game, they would say we won. That is, until you tell them the score. Yardage, 1st downs, TOP, etc... that's just insane!

When you put Dailey and Jackson out wide and Sheegog and Gamble in the slot with either Herring or Turner in the backfield if Huth has 4-5 seconds to throw the ball it is almost impossible to stop. The problem has been getting Huth that 4-5 seconds. How many times have you watched this year when Gamble lines up in the slot or goes out of the backfield in motion at least 2 guys are open each and everytime, Bobby just needs that few extra seconds to find them. I know alot of us on here, especially after the last 2 games, have really been down on the OL and LB's but Coach is right (of course) when he says they just arent making the "big plays" or they are turning the ball over in the red zone, which they didnt do last year. It seems to sound like a broken record this year but I really feel if they can put the 3 losses behind them and focus on Buchtel then Warren then Cincy Western Hills and then Mckinley that this team can get some momentum back and make a serious run deep into the playoffs, the whole key is getting everyone back on the same page getting some SR leadership and playing Massillon Tiger football. The talent is definitley there and we know the Coaching is definitley there, lets stay positive and see what these 4 games will bring us. W-W-W-W
BEAT BUCHTEL!!!

the talent isnt the problem i would say depth is a bigger problem
we were wore down in 2/3 losses: mentor and moeller(of course the great start didnt really hurt any)

I would like to know what team can match the talent of our 4 wide sets?? We just need to sustain that pass blocking !!! Hopefullly we will "gel" around week 10, and ride that wave throughout the playoffs !:gogogo:
