They are this year. Just not a good team. Lacking athletes at all positions

Define an 'athlete' for me then will you? You keep saying this and I find it absolutely hysterical. They have enough 'athletes' if they would decide to play them on both sides of the ball and quit trying to play kids that are nowhere close to being varsity ready. An athlete does not have to run cross country or track. You can evaluate kids there, but leave the football analysis to those that at least know what they are talking about.

Highlands came to play in this game and it simply blew up with 3 picks inside the 25 yard line and another in the end zone. Been a big big problem all year and will be interested to see if it finally gets addressed during the bye week. Continuing to put the same kids out on the field is going to provide the same results that have occurred early on this year.

Time is now to take your best 15-25 players and they do everything from special teams, to defense and to offense. One of best 5 offensive lineman is probably playing 3rd string QB and another is playing only on the defensive line. Two of the best defensive lineman are only taking snaps on the offensive side of the ball. You have 9 receivers and cannot get the ball to them, so you move them to defense at OLB/DE, corner and safety and instantly make yourself better.
