Final.

Not a good game from the Falcons tonight. For every step forward we have taken this season it seems we took 5 steps back tonight, the OL is the biggest disappointment too many times they were caught standing around while their guy was making a play, sad…

One bright spot was the defense in the second half, Troy Wyatt was an animal tonight, I appreciate his effort and intensity. Still not happy with the DE play, I think Colby Hamilton may be just the guy to fix that problem, he had a great second half at nose guard I would like to see him play some end.

I can say nothing more!!! True to the word!!!

I just can't help but feel like tonight was a loss. If we had played Glasgow or Green tonight we would have got smoked...

I thought I had a pretty good idea of who and what we were, now I'm not so sure.

 

BTW,do you know if we play with a synthetic ball? I noticed it after the game tonight and it looked like the new synthetic (PETA friendly) ball, if it is that might explain why Jackson's passes were off the mark, I have heard that the synthetic ball doesn't grip anything like a leather ball when it gets wet...

You didn't play Green tonight, you played Metcalf. You guys will be up for Green don't worry about it. There are games when your team may be flat or a little uninspired. If you are still good enough to win games like tonight, your Falcons will be fine.

I totally agree with FalconBacker...come on other Falcons, don't get too down over a Win...work to correct the mistakes, but continue to pump up your boys...they can and will make improvements every game! Good Job Falcons for the Win!!!

The team did not play well at all last night but still won the game and are 1-0 in the district. I am sure Coach John will work on OL this week. This team has to understand you have to be ready to play each week. Still think we will be ready fir the next 4 games. GO FALCONS.

Thanks, I know you’re right but to be honest I didn’t think they could play so poorly and uninspired. I know Coach Petett will fix that problem, but seeing that side of them was/is a little alarming.

Improvements is the key word, truth be told we probably learned more last night than we would have if it had been 50-6…

I agree.

I hope your right about being ready for the next 4 games, it may be the toughest four game stretch in 2A football.

4A Franklin-Simpson 4-1

2A Glasgow 3-3 BGP #10

2A Green Co. 5-1 BGP #6

3A Allen County Scottsville 5-0 BGP #3

Congrats on the win Falcons.

 

While there were mistakes made and improvements to be made, I'm sure that your players and coaching staff can get those issues addressed and corrected during this week of practice and hit your next game ready to overcome the challenges that plagued them this week.

 

Later.

I was listening to Sports Talk this morning and agree that Monroe has an unique ability to play at the level of competition. Metcalfe is not the same caliber of team that the rest of the district is. Monroe definately played down to Metcalfe's caliber last night, but a win is still a win. The boys were not at all happy with their performance and said that it would not happen again with any team they have left. I am sure Coach Petett is stirring over it now, but he will get it right. The boys know in their hearts they were running on low steam last night and a few key players have really been batteling illnesses. This is not an eye opener, it is a learning leason for kids and coaches alike that in times of troubles the Falcons will still pull it out, ugly or not, it still counts!!!:clap:

 

Go Falcons, pick your heads up and get ready for a tough Franklin-Simpson!!!:thumb:

Wow- Monroe has now won 18 of their last 20. I dont know for sure, but I would guess that this is the greatest run in the history of the school. I hope the fans of Monroe realize what is taking place and do not become selfish. I am hearing some scuttlebutt that there are still unhappy fans over: questioning coaching decisions,playing time of their children, etc. Questioning this coaching staff during the run they are having is nothing short of idiotic.

 

Coach Petett was not named Kentucky co-coach of the year for nothing last year. You Monroe fans better hope he stays for a long time.

I doubt the number of unhappy fans at Monroe is any more than anywhere else. Anyone that doesn't understand Coach Petett is a great coach doesn't know much about football, but no worries because if those fans (I use that word loosely) exist those fans will graduate with their children and not be heard of again.

BTW, things must not be too bad because there are 76 kids playing football this year, that doesn't sound like numbers a bad coach would have...
