Barber in or out? Funny how out of need Xree finally handles the rock and does some work. Very underwhelming how he was used this year.

Seth Caldwell vs Bryce Gibson is a nice battle of two good running backs

[Crimson's Ghost]

Exree Loe has 46 offensive touches this season in 11 games. He had 70 in 13 games last season. It is an interesting dynamic, but then again they were .500 last year and they are 10-1 this season.

I think it comes down to the health of the Johnstown QB. If he is healthy they win.

I saw he left Dubois game in the 3rd and didn't return. Possible knee? That would be such a huge loss and make them one dimensional.

I don't know. J-town passing game isn't that dynamic. They run the ball great and this year kind of just chuck it up there to their athletes. They had a much better passing game the last 3 years. Basically if they have someone that can put it in the area of their WR's they still have a shot... If not put Exree in at QB and let him and Gibson go to work on the ground. J-town can play good D and they have a great running game... That will keep them in it.

I disagree. For large portions of the season the JHS qb has been the best player on the field. He is the unquestionable leader of that team. I'm not suggesting he is better than Loe. What I am saying is they need him to win.

[CoffinCorner]

The key to Jtown is Gibson, tough tough back.  They have won this year despite the play of Barber, maybe he will become a good qb, but too many times this year he has flushed with a little pressure.   What do you say Sammy?

[Kvothe0]

Despite the play of Barber? Wow. He has been better than anyone expected this year.

I'm going to disagree with you on that the leaders of that team are Gibson,Loe, and Price

I think Barber does a nice job, but he was inconsistent at times. But it's not like they can throw the next guy out there and expect similar results.  He's been the guy all year and he's 10-1 with some pretty good numbers.
