82 5A State Champs

West Brook and Chavez have never played one another. With that being said, do you think this is the game WB's offense comes out of its shell and finally puts some points on the board? This is a game the Bruins SHOULD win! Your thoughts?

I`m personally hoping to see Central get their first W of the season......and for it to be at least by 5 points. ;)

WOW! I had no idea it was that bad! I knew we couldn't run the ball, but we also gave up 500+ yards of offense?! There is absolutely no excuse for that! Our defense was just plain worn out because the offense couldn't do squat, which just left our defense on the field too long! I'm willing to give Flanagan the benefit of the doubt, in that maybe the kids aren't catching on to his system. But, for him to supposedly be an offensive minded coach, the product he's putting on the field doesn't speak very well of him. Point being, we expect more from our WB teams. We expect to, at least, get out there and compete, week in and week out. Heck, we're not even competing, at this point. If something doesn't change, real soon, Flanagan is going to have a short tenure at WB. We want to win!!!

The kids tried, I'll have to give them that. Lamar was a very beatable team......very beatable. Its disappointing that WB doesn't seem to be any closer to finding an offense, than they were 3 weeks ago. Our secondary is still very suspect, but we seem to stop the run fairly well. If we can find a way to put points on the board, we should be ok. But, our offensive line doesn't block well enough to allow plays to develop. This offense works off of the run game. If the line doesn't give our RB's the ability to run, the passing game cant develop. Chavez is a game WB should win. But we have to be able to score points to do that.

NS and LP are still a toss up for the #1 spot, with PAM in 3rd. If the playoffs were to start now, based simply on the way we've played, I would give the 4th spot to DP. We need to improve on so many phases of the game, just to be competitive, right now.

My synopsis on this game was simple. Lamar QB, Colbert, was an arsonist in this game, as he torched the WB secondary for huge chunks of yardage. Play after play, pass after pass, I kept waiting for our defensive coaches to make some adjustments, to take away the pass threat, but it never happened. The Bruin defense put some pressure on Colbert, but he was very allusive, and was able to keep plays alive with his legs. On the next play, he'd go long, and complete the pass. The Bruin offense, was lethargic, at best. I dont know what to say, because they never really did anything. They played just awful. I know its just the third game, but you should start to see some offensive cohesiveness, by now. There doesn't seem to be any leadership, on this offense. Somebody needs to step up and be a leader, and be a "go-to" guy. Lamar was average, at best, and was very beatable. WB just wasn't able to sieze opportunities and capitalize on mistakes made by the Redskins. Hopefully, things will improve. Chavez, next week, should be a team that WB can beat. Then we get a week off, and then we get LP, to start district. There are no gimme games once district starts.

Another TD for the Redskins. Lead 26-7. I've seen enough.

WB secondary needs alot of work. But the offense needs to be revamped, or something. Nothing seems to be working. Lamar is driving and about to blow this game wide open.

Lamar driving. TD Redskins. Lead 20-7. 5:04 in the 3rd

WB will punt. Again. 7:30 in the 3rd.

Lamar fumbles again, WB recovers at the 30. Wonder if we can do anything with it, this time. Nope. Clack sacked on 1st and10 for a loss of 5.

WB isn't seizing opportunities. Lamar is definitely the more talented team, but is making huge mistakes. The problem is, the Bruins cant capitalize on the mistakes. Its very discouraging to watch.

WB recovers the Lamar fumble. 13-7 Redskins. 9:44 in the 3rd.

13-7 Redskins. Halftime.....thank the Lord!

Offensively, WB has looked like nothing but trash, in the first half, thus far. With the exception of the long pass, for the TD, the Bruins cant get anything going. If Lamar doesn't make some of the mistakes they've made, this game could be out of hand. SMH.

Bonehead playcalling has WB still trying to run the ball up the middle......it ain't working, Coach! Try something else!

INT Bruins.....return to the 40.

Once again, the refs are garbage. Redskins driving.

WB secondary is totally suspect, and keeps getting burned. Redskin QB Colbert is good!

TD Redskins. 13-7 Lamar.

WB playcalling has been horrible, thus far!

Clack throws an INT at the 1.

7-6. Redskins fumble the kickoff. Bruins recover the fumble at the 35.

Well, I thought we got it, but the scoreboard is showing 6-3. Ok?

72 yard pass. Bruins 1st and goal at the 5. TD Bruins!!!....on a 4th and 1! Flanagan went for it, and got it! Bruins lead 7-6!
