Triton Im with you…Jets need to come out and play hard early.Eureka is a good team and we wont get away with giving the ball up or penalty after penalty against this team.But we are very very explosive and after Friday teams will no longer question our pedigree.

The field will be fast and the weather calls for freezing temps.People have put alot of focus on our offense but we have a pretty good “D” and again speed kills.Logger blockers will be suprised how fast Jet pursuit is and find it very difficult to block
a moving target.Jets have small inside backers 160-170lbs but very quick.Small D
line also and again….very quick.

Do we have to talk about special teams ? I hear they have good kickers….annnd ?
we have great returners…..think that neutralizes that.

Jets win

Happy Thanksgiving

Bleachercoach encinal had minus 9 cause they ran 1 play a fumbled snap. You try an make it sound like it wasnt. Novato went 3 n out got the punt blocked again encinal scored. Jets kicked off made novato go 3 out muffed there punt novato ball they turned the ball over on downs. Encinal fumbled snap on there 9 yardline novato scored 3 plays later.novato kickoff encinal dipped n scored. Kickoff to novato another punt end of quater. So dont come on here talkin bs. Tell it like it is novato has never beaten the jets. Brackett needs to fix he’s punt team obviously encinal has found a weakness on there protection.

anyone want to see why Eureka won NCS last year…go to YouTube and check out Vanuku bemch press 295 lbs. an incredible 17 times! Good Lord, that’s unbelievable! He was a true man among boys, I guess? Is he redshirting this year, does anyone know?

If the ground is hard….Jets win by 2 TDs. These Jets always start slow….then explode for points in bunches. Once the tide turns it turns into a tidal wave on the opponent. Last year had Duckett and Washington(for a while)….this year doesn’t have stars…just a bunch of really good players. Any one of 5 RBs can go the distance…you can see that in their team average of 10+ yds per carry. Ve’e might be a better thrower than the past couple years. Not a better player, but a better thrower…which means they can catch up quick or throw when teams load the line of scrimmage. Eureka may be big, buts its hard to imagine they are use getting pounded by Morrow and friends. The crazy thing is…..the OL only has to get in the way for a split second, because everything is done so quick that if the opponent blinks, the RB is in the defensive backfield? This is the speed that Eureka hasn’t seen. Castlemont is not Encinal. PV may have had similar speed, but the mud probably nulified it last year.

With all these factors considered, I am still worried about Friday. Eureka obviously knows how to win, an expects to win every time out…..they are dangerous…..

If you attended the game you would know that the Jets had one offensive play and 14-0 lead. I’ll take -9 and 14 points anyday. Is that the stat you want to use against the Jets.

Reading is fundamental

Read #2 and #24

BleacherCoach – I would not care if they won by 1 as long as they won

And they did….again

Eureka allowed 4-7 Del Norte score 49pts. on them in 1 of the 2 games that they split 1 a piece, Encinal will score alot and often.There is no such thing as field position with this Jet Squad let it be on our 10 yard line or theirs it does not matter.
The problem teams have is STOPPING us.Don’t let that rain soaked game fool you because we would have beat them 40-0 if it were dry.

ArmstrongJets what are you talking about I do not believe anyone on the blogg picked Novato over Encinal. I saw a few say that they were worried that the game would be tighter than they liked and those were Jets fans !!!!

I can say after watching Novato hold the Jets to -9 yards in the first quarter you could tell this years Jet team is not as good as the previous two seasons period.

Eureka is not a young 5-5 Novato team that goes 3 and out every series they will have sustained drives eat alot of clock. The Jet offence will not have the short fields and the tired defence they had against Novato.
