All I have heard lately at the game and all is gloom and doom. I heard some saying the other night that our QB wasn't worth a nickel. Mind you, the same one that threw 6 ints all of last year and won a title. A lot of the missing is based upon the coverage being better due to the lack of our game breaker in the backfield. If they are concerned about him in the backfield, they can't double cover Lane or Kevin. The throws that you all reference him missing are on the run, if you look at the receivers, most of the time they are tightly covered. There you throw in the general area where no one can catch it. You avoid a penalty and live to fight another down. It will change in 2 weeks.

Now, I'm referring to things like the comments you and others make questioning the boys resolve. Such as when you dogged the defense for not tackling well in OT on one of the most explosive athletes in the state in OT. Our boys were outsized in every single position in that game and held him in check and to his lowest total all year. They were getting tired in OT, who wouldn't.

Then, I'm reminded of things such as fans in our stands at state in 2011. We had a soph who was having to do a lot more than usual. We had our main weapon with a banged up knee and couldn't run as usual. We had a lineman thrown in due to the loss of our best lineman the Friday before. So this soph made some mistakes. We had fans yelling "get him out of there. We don't need him".

These types of things do not help, they deter. They mostly come from people who never played though. I am simply saying stand behind them. Quit the doom and gloom and realize just how great we have it. I promise these kids do read this stuff and they do feel the pressure.
