Both teams are 0-2 right now, and for Heritage if their defense don't get any better I could see them losing the majority of their games this year, I've got Robbinsville in a close one at home.

Dude, who knows. The defense is so bad. It’s massively discouraging to watch and I wish the staff would literally try anything different.

3 turnovers is why they lost Friday night

I'd get out of a three man front especially this week.

Y'all acting like Robbinsville has been lighting up the scoreboard and getting their defense off the field.

Watch their last game , do have some speed in skill positions , their line not as good as past teams. Them being 0-2 they will play hard this week at home

We are fine on offense our d is just awful though a lot of our kids don't know how to form tackle.

Biggest weakness on their defense is d-line , In my opinion. Pisgah was smaller and pushing them back every play, foster is only athletic linemen they have that is strong . Their linebackers need work on basic fundamentals.

I don’t disagree. When 2/3 of your DL is getting washed into your LB corps you have issues. It’s why they should change the entire set up but not sure that’ll ever happen. They just let other teams set Foster where they want him and either avoid or throw numbers at him. It’s not a fun watch

Saw Pisgah was double foster all game. Honestly don't know the fix , losing mlb hurts, heard foster sign d-1 good player, good kid.

After watching Pisgah playHeritage, scrimmage Erwin and then watching the Robbinsville/Erwin scrimmage, I think Heritage will be able to break enough big plays to win this one by 7-10pts.

Heritage has more explosive options than Robbinsville does, imo.
How bad did Pisgah beat Erwin in that scrimmage? I know the Robbinsville Erwin scrimmage was tied 10-10.

I want to say it was 34-20. We moved Erwin around on the line pretty good and had a couple of d-linemen that consistently lived in their backfield.

Robbinsville will move the ball on Heritage, I just think it will be more in the form of methodical drives instead of big chunks of yardage.

Ball at midfield is better than ball in the end zone. Ya'll did see the opening kickoff? Heritage gave up 6 points in the second half. Ya'll need to check your bias(es)
My bias is that Heritages defense isn't very good we gave up 24 in the first half against Erwin, and 28 in the first half against Pisgah.

I think whoever wins this game goes 6-4 whoever loses goes 5-5 or possibly 4-6 lol

Replacing 10 starters on defense will do that. We used this 4 man front in the first half. Seems like the three man works just fine

lol you know better. They won’t change a dang thing. I know exactly what’s going to happen. They’ll let Travis and the gang set 44, they’ll shift away and hammer that side. I’ve been watching this since youth league.
Thats exactly what I would do, other 2 guys are not strong enought.

I wonder the last time both of these teams started the season 0-2. Has to be several years I would think. Robbinsville is historically tough at home but I think the Heritage offense has more fire power in this one. So if Heritage can get 2 - 3 stops they will walk out with the win.

Man I fill dirty just typing that.

Go Mountaineers

I don't think you're pissing anyone off. And no, they didn't start out in a 4 man front Friday night. They went to one at one point but abandoned it fairly quickly.

I have too many opinions about it to share so i'll keep my mouth shut, but what we're ultimately seeing is an unwillingness to adapt to what you have b/c "that's how we've always done it" is the message. And the reality is, there's really not usable depth and they're young and the young kids are massively underdeveloped and it's showing. I just think that's an excuse though. Pisgah is young. They start Sophomores and Juniors everywhere. They're just better developed as ball players at that phase. There's a reason for that too, but I don't have the energy to let it rip LOL

No one likes being 0-2. Robbinsville will
Come out fighting at home this week.
Don’t know how we’ll make it without any development. Maybe we’ll luck into it like we did 50-19 last year. Or maybe our kids will band together and tell all the outside noise and interests to kick rocks and remember that We Are Heritage. Maybe they’ll remember that the Paw and fighting for one another is bigger than any one persons accomplishments or stats? I know this, that green kool aid tastes a helluva lot better than purple.
