I have taken over a new football program that was started only 3 years ago. We woon the first game in school history two weeks ago. My defense has not given up but 2 tds in the past two weeks. The problem is the offense. My biggest lineman is only 225 and he outwighs everybody by 20 pounds. We are far better pass blockers thhan run blockers because wecan use leverage and spread the defense out. I have a 6'5 230 power forward that is playing football for the first time. So as expected he drops more balls than he catches. He however has after 5 games 20 catches for 308 and 4 td's. He has also caused 5 picks by either tipping the ball or running the wrong route. I have 2 sprinters off the track team, I have tried these2 guys at every position. they only are effective thus far on the sweep and the option due to thier reluctance/fear to run anything inside of the tackles. My other wide outs wont catch a cold buttnaked in Alaska. The qb is very religious and is questioning his faith by askking why wont they catch the ball. t is not like we are getting sacked or cant ake the throws, they just drop the ball. I know that they are a rebuilding program but we must do better than this any suggestion will help. I cant keep doing the defense like this. We were somewhat effecive in the screen gamebut then they quit catching those. I cant be limited to running sweeps, options, and jump balls. ANy Ideas will help.
