1. Do you play Hatfield this week or give him another week's rest to try and make sure he is 100%? Go Fletcher, Carr, Johnson in the backfield and use Dari to spell Carr and Johnson frequently.

2. Do you only play Warren on offense to start the game and keep him away from any unnecessary contact on defense while giving a guy like a Catron valuable minutes?

3. Do you tinker with the idea of playing Hayden Hatfield at DE? He has been great all season but really struggled last week against a big, fast, and strong JC D-line. Bentley looked pretty good up front and the DE's have been an issue all season from an experience standpoint as well as the fact A. Hatfield has been banged up for so long. Hayden hatfield's experience and tenacity would be a welcome change.

I think Jackson County will be competitive, but let's call it what it is.. JC simply doesn't seem to have the horses or athletes at this point in their growing program to overcome a team like Belfry. I dont see this being one of those "Name the Score" games where Belfry could win by 100, but I also think a running clock is likely.

Belfry has 3 key issues that continues to hamper them:
- The defense, specifically the front 7, is not playing consistently good ball whatsoever
- The skill players can't get healthy on offense, and their timing as a result continues to be a problem
- The youth on the defense continues to improve, but the more minutes they play and more snaps they see only makes them better

The LB's and DE's are trying but they continue to get abused against any team with some semblance of a good offense.
