Mark it down. At the 8:00 minute mark of the 3rd quarter, this PNG team grew up.

 

[NDNzeke]

Hopefully pays off in OT

It did.

Indians have lots of problems, particularly regarding the apparent lack of a passing game. Still, this was a very memorable victory and hopefully we can get things going by the time the playoffs roll around. Unfortunately several of our toughest district matchups occur early.

#9 QB1
#19 WR/Wildcat

Just my 0.02 cents.

It's been 40 years since PN-G won back-to-back games vs. WO-S. 1982-1983 was the last time PN-G won back-to-back (actually it was three in a row 1981-1982-1983). Think about that. 40 years. Doug Ethridge was still leading our PN-G Tribe. Coach Joseph has carved out some history for his resume. Anytime you are mentioned with Doug Ethridge, you're in rare (and great) company.

Go Indians. Great comeback win.

It does look like Adams is more of a threat at WR/RB. Surprising, but the sophomore QB does have the arm if he can just settle down.

Any win against WOS is a big win. And the way they did it was impressive.

Great effort and game by both teams. WO-S made some big plays but wasn’t a good match for the Indians size and depth. PNG came out and played like a different team in the second half. And at about 8:14 left in the 3rd, it was like someone flipped a switch. Good win but still lots of work needed on offense. Next week is a bye week.

Penalties. Ball security. Passing. Those three things needed to improve after Week 1, and they need to continue to improve after Week 3. Tackling also needs to improve. I’m starting to think this is a talented team, just mildly lacking in experience and perhaps struggling with its offensive identity. That makes sense given we lost 15 starters from last year. Experience and team cohesion will come with time.

Nonetheless, PN-G beat a talented West Orange-Stark team in overtime with the back-up quarterback. As has already been pointed out, it’s the first time the Indians have strung together consecutive wins against the Mustangs in 40 years, and only the second time in the history of either school. For once (maybe the first time ever), the characteristic last second, come-from-behind nature of the PN-G/WO-S series favored PN-G. Coach Joseph remains undefeated in one score games at PN-G. A few hard winces aside, it was a fun game to watch, and another one for the history books.

I’m still glad we resurrected this series.

We are going to need the bye to prepare for FBM. Hopefully the offense can improve and the defense can keep us in the game.

At ~3:45 left in the 2nd Adams scrambled after the bad snap. The tackler rolled up his legs from behind.
My comments about being more effective at WR were premature. Adams is still a great threat at QB.

WOS is a shell of what it was. Last year was its worst season in 39 years. I've watched WOS play at least 35 games over the last 30 years and I've never seen the arm tackling and generally poor tackling exhibited tonight. Hiawatha has failed to implement the previous standards established by Thompson and it shows.

Oh please don’t discount the Indians win. WOS has a ton of speed and talent. PNG defense was rocking them all night.

Just got back from the game and we made big time plays when it mattered. It may have not been pretty, but this team has some grit. Excited to see what the future holds this year!

Every team is different every season. Gutsy win by the Indians. They pounded on the opponent all night and prevailed. WO-S typically has some good players that make big plays. They still do and they made them. But they were also stopped when it mattered thanks to a very strong PNG defense. Give both teams credit due. The Indian defense is the real deal. The offense needs more work but we saw some flashes this week.

I think that Bailey is in for good now and I mean the rest of the season. Shea looks like he will be out. By the time he comes back Bailey will be ready. Shea will still be needed for any hope of some sort of a run. Bailey has a cannon and one of th quickest releases I have seen in a while at the reservation. This kid is SPECIAL. Mark my worrd. A lttle more growing time and he will be something to see.

 

[1989NDN]

It was my first time to see #9. He can sling it. On the two point conversion, he went through his progressions, looked off the first WR and threw a dart to the WR in the back of the end zone. He just needs more reps. He throws a nice ball. It seems we have a solid WR group. #33 was the MVP tonight. Nice vision and some wheels. The defense...just kept coming...kept playing. What more can you ask for? The effort is there. The DC at PN-G is excellent. Coach Joseph and the DC are money when it comes to defense. They know what they are doing and they do a great job.
