Celina has very real issues on defense. Van Alystne was able to run up and down the field. The week before Lake Worth had over 400 yards rushing and lost 3 fumbles inside the redzone. It will be a quick exit from the playoffs if we continue to play such poor defense. One thing that would help is if we would stop trying to throw the ball so much when the other team cannot stop our running game. Just run the ball and quit trying to pad the stats for our young QB who is the offensive cooridinators son. The other issue is the defensive ends are a big weakness and Van was able to sweep around us for easy yards. Time to look at some other kids who can play that position better. A lot of people from Celina tonight were talking tonight and they don't see this team making a strong playoff run.

Actually, you need to be able to pass somewhat to make a legitimate run at a SC. As such, it make all the sense in the world to work on the passing game at this point in the season. I don't believe it has anything to do padding stats. With regard to the defense, the numbers are concerning but the adjustments can be made. The athletes on the field are more than capable to be a very good defense and in IMO the coaches will make the adjustments to defend the running aspect of the spread offense. Whether they make a deep playoff run remains to be seen as Region 2/Div. 1 will be like running the gauntlet but I think folks might be selling this team a bit short.
