What does your offense need to improve on from last year?
We need to be able to move the ball and stay ahead of the chains, convert first downs.
What does your defense need to improve on from last year
WE need to improve our tackling in space and play better pass defense.
What are your overall thoughts on this years team?
Kicker Bobby Smith has a big leg and is consistent from 50 yards on field goal. Special teams need to be fundamentally sound in all phases. Our offense needs to move the chains with RB’s Glatts and Riddell on the ground. QB McDonald has several solid targets in TE Paschall, WR Jones and Hershey. Defense Line (Godfrey/Gomez/Morgan) need to control the line of scrimmage so LB Walsh and Kirby can finish plays. Returning Defensive back field has experience from last year.
