As good as the defense is for Raceland the offense is beyond bad. Year after year the playcalling philosophy has been "We are bigger and stronger and we will run the ball up the A-gap, 3 yards and a cloud of dust, stop us if you can". Raceland really has never had the personnel for that, but the last several years it was close. They do NOT have that this year. You have to SCHEME on offense. The first drive Raceland did some stuff they haven't done all year. They had two first downs back to back.
I feel the offense plays to "not lose" instead of "to win", meaning there is zero aggressiveness at all, just play it safe and put it all on the defense. In 3 of 4 of Raceland's games this year on the first play of their first possession, the call is a run up A-gap. It isn't working. Teams know this is coming.
How about a reverse? Double pass? Counter? Double move? ANYTHING to get the offense going. They have to be able to throw the ball if the run isn't working. The defense is just GASSED by the 4th quarter. This isn't the senior heavy teams of Raceland past where you just line up and play football with raw power and run an offense that is straight out of 1985.
I do think the defense has been GREAT all things considered. If not for the defense, the Rams would be in a terrible state.

Good lord ….you are me I am you…together that makes one. You better watch talking like this on here. The great Ram fans that wear those orange tinted glasses will call you names.
