southend Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 Jasper could lay an egg this season, you hope if it happens is in the regular season and not the tournament. But MD is having a good season, and at home? So hopefully a good game for everyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The goal for Memorial in this one is to stay healthy and spread the ball around. I’m curious to see how Matthew Fisher does at QB against a varsity defense. If he does well enough….

In fact, I strongly doubt we’ll see it. I’m just wondering if it might be a possibility later in the season if Fisher keeps progressing and Ellspermann keeps struggling with passing the ball. This team has a chance to make some noise. We’ve got a good receiving corps to go along with two very good backs and a solid OL. We need to be able to pass the ball. If we can get that figured out, we’d be hard to beat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be a bonus if he could get at least some of them while the rest of the starters are still in. Hurley had him punting the other night. Obviously, that went really badly. But I’m told that Fisher is a better punter than what he showed there. As we all know, he loves having his QBs punt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully that was a wake up call I don't think I can remember a time when MD did not come out ready to play the week after a game like last week. Coach G seems to have soften a little bit (at least publicly) but I suspect he peeled some paint off the walls the last few days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give QB1 all the reps until the starters are pulled. The schedule gets a little softer the next few weeks, so he'll get the kinks worked out and be ready for Castle in Wk. 9.

Caleb is perfect for the job. Great leader and he has his teammates trust. JMO but we are in trouble if we ask a 9the grader to lead this group. He made a nice pass vs Central’s backups in a blowout. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we’re going to need a more potent passing game than what we have shown to date to realize this team’s full potential. Too many weapons are being left under-utilized out there. And a better defense than what we’ll face in the SIAC will be able to snuff out our running game if there isn’t a more credible threat of airing it out. Just FTR, I’m not saying we should change horses. I get that Fisher is a freshman and that’s obviously a limiting factor. But it could pay dividends in the post-season if he got some snaps with (and against) first stringers in the regular season…if for no other reason than the prospect of Caleb getting hurt.

TigerFan20 Posted September 14, 2021 Author Share Posted September 14, 2021 Ellspermann is great player, runs pretty tough, but his accuracy has been declining which I’m concerned. To be fair, some of his recent incompletions have been dropped passes, so his %rate is most likely deflated due to those dropped passes. On Fisher’s case, he needs just needs to build up more against backups for his freshman year, but should progress his sophomore year. Ellspermann will still continue to be QB1, and these take 3/4 games should help him develop further before facing Reitz/Castle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like it when he runs and part of me would love to see him run more. I'm sure the reason they don't run him more is the fear of injury. But, let's face it, his passing hasn't been stellar. It's not just that he's had accuracy issues, his passes tend to be a bit on the rainbow side. And, again, I just think that limits this team's ceiling. But I'm just a fan yapping on a message board. I agree with you that this isn't going to happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Screagle Posted September 15, 2021 Share Posted September 15, 2021 Memorial is a different team with Ray Brodie on the field. It’s been awhile since EM had a RB with his skill set. Power runner with big time break away speed. Agler, Brodie, and Shea brought some juice after missing weeks 1 and 2. I like a healthy EM vs a healthy Jasper week 10. JMO.

Brodie is what the Evans kids from Central aspired to be until they got loaded down with too much mustard... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
