They are going to continue to get smoked every game if the players keep quitting during the game. Lack of effort on blocking and tackling. They literally get sealed and scored on tosses every game. And the offense getting behind the sticks does not help at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomLHS Posted September 18, 2021 Report Share Posted September 18, 2021 If you are going to run an offense like this one, you must have a defense that can get some stops. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vol9093 Posted September 19, 2021 Report Share Posted September 19, 2021 I don't believe that the players quit. If you run this type of offense then you must have a 2 deep rotation on defense that is solid. Defense was exhausted in the 3rd quarter. Never rotated in back ups. Defense played played well in the first quarter when rested. HC needs to recognize this and slow down when needed. Also, losing 3 onside kicks and not converting fourth downs put the Defense in a bad spot multiple times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That also, I still think the youth factor is playing its part but some of the touchdowns I’ve seen given up is not fatigue it’s them not even trying. Hard to go into your depth when kids are acting up and not paying attention also Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CougarDadx2 Posted September 20, 2021 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2021 Listening to the Saturday morning show, sounds like HC is going to be playing some even younger guys to see what he has. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TOM4000Patriots Posted September 20, 2021 Report Share Posted September 20, 2021 Blackman needs to get that defense in order. They need their best guys playing defense. The offense will come with more reps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vol9093 Posted September 20, 2021 Report Share Posted September 20, 2021 I'm curious, what do you guys consider a young team? Blackman currently starts 2 sophomores, the rest are Juniors and Seniors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mat73557 Posted September 20, 2021 Report Share Posted September 20, 2021 I think Blackman has only a handful of kids who have ever played varsity snaps before this season. Maybe I'm wrong? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blaze45 Posted September 21, 2021 Report Share Posted September 21, 2021 So here is the skinny... Blackman returned 3 players on either side of the ball that payed a down of varsity football prior to this year. Couple that with 14 new coaches, and a pretty tough schedule, it was going to be a hard go of things this year regardless who was coaching. I have been in the building, seen the by in at the top down from administration,(how else would you explain the number of coaches that are inside the building. (on staff as teachers) Realistically you have 2 years to see a vast improved Blackman team . I like everybody else want it right now. But after watching for 15 seasons I also knew this was not going to be a quick fix, even after the high hopes the Brentwood game set. They will win a few games this year and be ok by end of the year, and with the strength and conditioning being lead by Coach Beasley They will be a much stronger physical team come next year. For the folks who want to throw fits because the defense was "Put in a bad position " by not punting, Lets be honest ,.... they couldn't make stops when they needed to, or the other team would not have out scored them. You want championship season... put in championship work and you'll be fine. Anybody can support a team when they are winning, be a real fan.

I personally loved when they had the weight room with the strobe lights etc. Seemed like a great way to get stronger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
