Game Day: #3 Port Neches-Groves vs #9 Port Arthur Memorial

[pngfan316]

This is only the first game of the season, y’all. Take away 1–2 of those big mistakes, and it’s a whole different ball game. PAM is always going to be fast, strong, and physical, and they gave us a great test early in the season. Plenty to build on from here.

Yes, we need some improvement. But look at how young these guys are, a lot of juniors on the roster. We can learn a lot from this game and with the coaches we have and players we will improve and be ready for next week. Thanks to all the coaches and players for all your hard work and long hours.

I’m honestly shocked we came away with just a one TD loss in this game - these kids have some fight in them. Could have laid down and quit when Memorial was up 3 scores, but they clawed back to make it a game. Memorial is good - may be the best team we play in the regular season. Sloppy mistakes made, but to be expected for a first game. Silver lining is coach has a lot of good film on us to work on.

Too much negativity. The Indians didn’t play their best game, with several self inflicted wounds, and kept it within a touchdown against a good 5A-D1 team. More work to be done, but it will be done. Coaches saw what they needed to see, and the players will use this game to improve.

Congratulations to Port Arthur Memorial on the win. Unfortunately a petty decision by the Memorial band to play a kindergarten version of Cherokee taints what could have been a classy win. Also clear that Memorial’s QB would still be #3 or #4 on the PNG depth chart.

That’s why I say
Our band plays to our crowd from now on.

Several of these schools have very little class when it comes to traditional courtesies and they couldn’t care less
So from now on play towards us

The ones saying PNG will lose in 1st round of playoffs or having a down year are clueless. This team has the makeup and coaching staff to make it to the state championship. The last 4 years are the standard and this team will achieve great things this season.

PNG will beat WB by 2 to 3 touchdowns, beat the new Fort Bend Crawford and give Brenham everything they want and probably win that game. PNG will enter the playoffs as district champions with an 8-2 or 9-1 overall record.

I just don't see PNG doing a lot of damage this yr this is going to be a down yr for PNG imo. They will probably make the playoffs but get beat in the first round.

Stick to anything but football commentary. Please.

We were outcoached. Specifically, their oc out coached our oc.

Wrong. Joseph will never show his hand in a season opener. This was bland by design.
