Maybe I get in trouble locally for posting but one of the big ones is offensive predictability. If we fans can predict what is coming............
They are sandbagging offensive plays until the playoffs.

I thought that, too, but wonder if it is really true this year. I've never cared for that............just throw it all out there and dare your opposition to defend it from the get go. Sometimes those "sandbagged" plays don't work when it matters most if not practiced in real game situations.They are sandbagging offensive plays until the playoffs.
They worked last year, especially when they lost Jess Davis. What? Cale Garett lined up to run? Six yards. I bet they've only shown 70% of what they've been repping.I thought that, too, but wonder if it is really true this year.

No play will work when the defensive tackles are taking the handoff from the QB.
Fix the Offensive and Defensive line play and we'll talk playoffs.
Until then...
PLAYOFFS???
You want to talk playoffs?

This has been mentioned at both games I've attended and I WILL NOT go in depth because it is very unfair to any kid to do so..................just trust me if Kearney faces Excelsior that will be a very intense contest.Yeah, Smithville and Excelsior Springs loom large in the first couple rounds of the playoffs...those powerhouse lines are a threat.

Same here as always but, in all fairness, Staley had lost twice and were very shocked one of those was to Chrisman thus they came in with very high intensity while Kearney looked to me like an unbeaten team that needs a loss to shake them into gear.............next week will tell all.This is not "last year's" team.
I was speaking of games to come where the line will need to get better or go home.
Watched the Webb City (vs) CJ game twice. Allowing them or any other capable Defense to shake the hand of our QB on every play is unacceptable and will insure a quick exit back to K-Town.
Love the Dawgs with my heart but my eyes are not blindfolded.

I hate to say it but, if the O Line is an issue overall as you all are suggesting, it is tooooo late to fix that. K will have to adjust offensively to offset that deficiency.Yes, I noticed what are talking about in the Fort/Kearney game. Fort's penetration was good. So was LN's. Other facets of the game made up the difference. But it is an obvious difference from last year on the front.
