First of all, it is well known that the Glendale Varsity team is one of the smallest teams. Therefore, a strategy would be to use our speed, spread the offense, and utilize our talents in the areas of speed, passing and outside runs. It’s quite apparent that an attempt to run up the middle is not an option for Glendale at this point.

Number 2, It is also apparent that we are stuck in a two man offense that cannot work. I am aware that there is an experienced quarterback in the ranks of the roster and we need him to step up to the plate and be a leader. Kudo’s to the current QB but he is a far better running back than a QB.

Number 3, With the current state of the teams size, it should be apparent that the option play is not a choice. No offense to the linemen but if the offensive line is not able to withstand a defensive line onslaught, then the QB should be in a shotgun position to give him time and room for he or his backs and receivers to position themselves to make a successful play. Options for short slant-in passes over the oncoming defensive line could be utilized effectively.

These are only my opinions and I hope only good will come from them. I fully expect the Falcons to succeed in a big way this season. Just my thoughts. Go Get Em Falcons!

My best!
