will Dodge still get reps in the playoffs?

[slc0204]

even though he is young will coach dodge play his son in the playoffs at QB i know will see him at wide out or rb but will he still get that 3rd rep?

[dragonfootballfan]

my guess is yes. But if you remember correctly he gets the third series and then if there ever is garbage time, not every third series

[slc0204]

can he handle the pressure, i know hes our guy next year but will he give us that boost he gave us in district?

[YouKnowTha3T]

There is no doubt Riley can handle the pressure...when you play for SLC I honestly think they are so well coached and prepared that there is no pressure. The real question should be can Riley handle some of the top teams in the state...SLC wasnt exactly tested defensively at all this year...Teams get better in the playoffs and subsequently so do the defenses

[dragonfootballfan]

can he handle the pressure, i know hes our guy next year but will he give us that boost he gave us in district?
yes and yes

[Red Raiders]

How come Southlake Carroll don't have a FB? is it because they have more wide reciever to use. I was thinking Southlake Carroll last year was playing like a "College Ball" which is pretty impressive and they still are.

[Shoot2thrill]

That question can only be handled on the field. Can he? Probably? Wil he? Nobody knows except the man upstairs and he ain't telling. :cool:

[Redneckn]

If he is not the starting QB, then the coach is short changing the starter by putting in his son. Coach will prolly do it pad his sons numbers so when colleges start looking at him, he'll look even better..
That's crappy.

[NewSherriffInTown]

I'm obviously from nowhere near SLC and I can tell that it has nothing to do with his son. It has to do with reps for the future two year starter, it has to do with a "change of pace" type situation, and it forces teams to prepare for two different quarterbacks. So please stop with that father-son stuff.

[slc0204]

well first of all coach dodge wouldnt do that and riley could start for most teams in this state as a soph

yeah, once riely gets his arm control even better oh man id be scared, hes got the legs, hes got a pretty good arm, but if gets that arm up a notch, ohhhhhh mannnn

[drgnbkr]

Riley did'nt play every third series against Richland..& my guess is he will be used at RB & Wr against I-Mac....

[dragons08]

he doesnt play EVERY 3rd series!! its only the 3rd series of the game!! then garbage duty!

[westlakefootball]

Just curious, how big is Dodge?

[dragons08]

5'11 ballpark figure

I Think that may be generous

hes not as short as you guys make him out to be

[dragonfootballfan]

hes not as short as you guys make him out to be
I know but 5'11 is awfully tall. I mean the whole team cannot be 6' like everyone makes them out to be

[dragons08]

but i am in riley's grade and i have seen him in the halls

[yankee]

but i am in riley's grade and i have seen him in the halls
yes of course, carroll needs some superior speed on offense, who knows how fit newton will be. and this two QB system has worked all year so if i were coach dodge, give riley reps.

[dragonfootballfan]

but i am in riley's grade and i have seen him in the halls
I know that you see him everyday, but that does not make you any more qualified to predict his height without measuring him than someone else

[dragons08]

newton looked pretty good to me against richland, if tre' needs rest riley will be ready to go in at RB IMO

[dragons08]

I know that you see him everyday, but that does not make you any more qualified to predict his height without measuring him than someone else
i know, i guess all im saying is from how tall i am and seeing him he looks 5'11, im sure dragonsdaddy knows his height and everything

[yankee]

I know that you see him everyday, but that does not make you any more qualified to predict his height without measuring him than someone else
listen dragonfootballfan, i see him almost every day in the hall and im 5-9 and hes only got me by a couple of inches

ok. It is still just an estimate. It doesn't matter. I will not argue about it anymore. It makes no difference

good point as long as he kicks butt on the field it dont matter

[dragonfootballfan]

he has done that all season and I think that he will continue in the playoffs.

[yankee]

ok. It is still just an estimate. It doesn't matter. I will not argue about it anymore. It makes no difference
good idea, because hes still has a good arm and hes still fast so his height doent matter right now

[dragons08]

he has done that all season and I think that he will continue in the playoffs.
yea i do 2, he contiunes to impress me game after game, with his ability..same with tre' hes gets better every week, great article on tre' in the Southlake times or journael or what ever southlake newspaper we got today

but how will tre respond after his concussion. i thinks he'll do fine

[dragons08]

ask richland

Ya I just wish that Carroll could have gotten Tre some more in game reps before the playoffs started. The playoffs are a different game and that experience would have helped tremendously

[yankee]

well they didnt want to overwork him either, they wanted to ease him back into the game and see how he responded.

as do i, but maybe this rest will benifit him more than we think? look at tampa bays rb cadalic williams, he was awesome, but they gave him to many reps and bam, keeping tre fresh will benift IMO, his speed is insane, plus it gives moorefield a little more confidence with the extra playing time

yeah but cadillac is paid so he has to go out there, tre is only a sophmore, he doesnt want to jeopardize his career

I don't think the comparison to Caddillac Williams is valid because he was Tampa's only offensive weapon. Tre would have been in the game for probably 2/3 of the offensive plays and would have gotten like 15-20 carries. I don't think moorefield confidence was boosted by putting in a sophomore back up quarterback that has never played RB before because he was not getting the job done

hmm good point, the more i read what i said the more it doesnt make sense, thanks for pointing that out! so will riley and tre' switch around, or is it tre' is in untill he needs a break type deal?

[dragonfootballfan]

I have no idea. I would guess that Tre would get most of the snaps and would rotate with Moorefield. If for some reason Tre cannot go then Riley would rotate with Moorefield.

[yankee]

i think tre will start and riley will come in whenever dodge chooses to. moorefield i think will some carries, but only during tre's breaks.

[dragons08]

i think moorefield is in on the short yardage situations on 2nd down posibly 3rd

[dragonfootballfan]

i think moorefield is in on the short yardage situations on 2nd down posibly 3rd
No I think he will come in situations where the defense will blitz. The only thing that I think that he can do better than Tre or Riley is blitz pick up. I think he will be in for 3rd and 6 or more and maybe some second down situations. I think that Newton is a much better short yardage back

wow i really dont know moorefield that much, my mind isnt even functioning properly at this time anyways..

[dragonfootballfan]

Moorefield is a big back and when people see him they immediately think he would be good in short yardage. The problem is that he is not that athletic and lacks the speed and jumping ability to either bounce the ball outside or jump over a pile in short yardage situations. He is not suited for the shotgun where he starts flatfooted and gets the ball 5 yards behind the LOS. He needs to get a runnning start and get moving and get the ball a couple yards before he reaches the lineman

so hed be a better back on a team that runs the I formation frequently?

I think that he would make a great fullback. He blocks really well and has pretty good size.

possible tight end in college? hows his hands?

[dragonfootballfan]

I don't know if he has a future in a major football school. He is pretty slow to play a skill position at the next level, but is too short to play tight end or on the line.

oh, i kind of feel bad for him going from possible starter in preseason to not even a carrer after highschool

most kids don't go on to play football after high school. The kid has still played more and gotten more opportunities than most other kids ever will. I also think that most kids would rather back up a winner than star on a team with no fan support and wins a couple games a year.

i guess your right, theirs things they can pick up from not even playing, the friends they'll make, the work ethic they can learn, the integrity, all the stuff that goes beyond the game itself

[dragonbuck]

You guys must be tired. One of you said RD was 5'11", and the other said he was not that tall. then you said you see him in the hallway and he is 2 inches taller than you and you are 5'9". That's pretty close to 5'11" where I come from. Get some rest.

By the way, did you notice that in the Richalnd game RD didn't come in for the 3rd series at QB like he always has???? He came in at RB and in the slot. but not at QB until 2nd half. Could that be a prediction for the post season??

I think you've nailed it DB......Doubt if we'll see the the 3rd series QB switch in the playoffs. Expect Riley to get his reps at RB and slot receiver from now on.
