WeirFootball 10 Report Share Posted September 26, 2005 I don't know too much about Graham this year, but from what it seems like Bluefield had the game won in the opener but just threw it away. Bluefield seems to be playing a lot better the past few weeks and I think they come out of this one w/ a W, but it will be close, something like 24-21. Any other thoughts?

oldskool 10 Report Share Posted September 26, 2005 Graham was really limited with what they can do on offense now with the loss of their QB. #3 didn't complete one pass against Richlands last Friday. It doesn't look as if he can even hold the ball right to throw it. The play calling has to get better also. Graham had a 3rd and 1 when the score was 0-0 and didn't go to their horse. Not saying he would have gotten it but he would have had a better chance than whoever got it. That led to the first punt that #20 returned to make it 7-0. Also on 2nd and 1 right before the half they went to the spread and lost yards. On the big pass play down the middle there was no safety in the middle of the field and the QB made the audible and the guy ran a quick slant on the linebacker and had a big play. Things like this cannot happen against a good team. You have to keep the ball away from them buy sustaining drive but eith this kind of play calling it want happen. Bluefield will win the second game if these kinds of things happen this week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldskool 10 Report Share Posted September 27, 2005 Most of the passes he threww were way off target anyway. I don't think that he was close to completing any of his throws. I know that he was running for his life and I understand who and what he was up against. My point was about the play calling. he shouldn't have had to try to pass on 2nd and 1 and 3rd and 1 in the first place. I also believe that the people that said that Graham would be okay without Workman now see that that will not be the case because they will have no passing game.

BLU_Beavers_08 10 Report Share Posted September 27, 2005 From what I saw when I went to the Richlands/Graham game, Graham is really hurting with Workman. I think Bluefield might be able to take this one, since we have JT back, and we have no othere injuries right now, and Bluefield has improved tremedously since the first game. And I think Graham having a lot of their best players hurt is really going to affect them, but who knows. I just wish my Beavers good luck!!!!

So that is fedinately going to affect them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldskool 10 Report Share Posted September 28, 2005 what happened to Wills Murray from Graham? Can he not play defense or offense for the G-Men? #11 got an interception last week against richlands but dang he's small and can't tackle. With Carper not being able to handle the ball can they try to throw to Murray at all? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bulldog95 10 Report Share Posted September 28, 2005 Having JT back w/ Bluefield and Workman being out for Graham could cause some problems. Bluefield will be working extra hard this week to get their revenge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

futbolking 766 Report Share Posted September 30, 2005 Have you forgotten that Workman accounted for 5 turnovers against Bluefield in that first game? I thought Yost did an excellent job getting away from pressure and throwing the ball away when his receivers were blanketed by the defense. He was truly running for his life out there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

futbolking 766 Report Share Posted September 30, 2005 Graham's game plan will change. Yost is a much more mobile quarterback. Don't be fooled by Yost's performance throwing the ball last week. Richland's was in his face all night and the receivers didn't have any room to breathe. I think Yost did a good job getting rid of the ball when he had to. If given time, he'll do fine with the passing game. If rushed, he can get out of trouble, get rid of the ball, or throw it out of bounds. I think he adds a dimension to the team that they didn't have before. Nobody has scored on Richlands yet. Take away the 5 turnovers that Graham had in the last contest, and Graham wins by 2 or 3 td's.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're making it seem like Richlands had nothing to do with Graham's poor peformance last week. Did it ever actually occur to you that Richlands forced those turnovers?
