We’ve had that problem all season. There’s no logic, no system at all. I can’t stand our play calling. We just run and if they stuff us we reward them with incompletions. We’ve known since Lake Creek that the first team that was able to take advantage of the wasted possessions we seem intent on gifting them would be able to beat us. We’ve mostly been lucky up until now.Our OC is killing us. Playcalling is predictable and atrocious. SMH.
We have athletes who want to make tackles all over the sideline. We have portions of our secondary who seem to want to avoid contact at all cost and run more slowly than my mom. I don’t understand not putting the hungry players in.It may be time to move up those JV defensive backs.
I’d rather run every play. In the 3rd quarter we marched down the field with something like 8 run plays in a row, and then our OC wanted to scratch his “Make Faircloth Proud” itch and threw the three worst pass plays in human history. If we had simply run the ball we would have at least set up a closer field goal and been able to at least be tied at the end of the game.Poor non creative play calling and the inability to prevent big plays on defense cost us this game. We’ve got to make some changes on defense and we’ve got to find a more balanced offense than depending on running every play and only one dependable receiver.

Even the NDN Press announcers were dismayed by that call.Like the 3rd down delayed draw? Stupid call
Wow, I sure hope that this is the bottom! And I'm not talking about just the boys, but the coaches too. Maybe get back to basics, including the stadium lights. Dimming the lights when your own team is trying to kick an extra point is embarrassing. Even NDN Press (although they are doing a great job) maybe needs to simplify a little and get back to where they were.I don't think the Indians are hitting bottom. The opportunity was there. The defense played well other than a handful of plays. The offense had it's moments too but not enough. Nederland made more plays. They also came in with extra impetus with it being the #1 ranked defending state champion on a winning streak. They hit the target on the back of the Indians. A few plays here or there and it would have been an Indian win. Now back to the core work that has brought the program to where it's at. Now the job is to beat Montgomery.

Port Neches reminded me of the Bama team a few weeks ago when they played Vandy at Vandy they thought they would beat Vandy same way PNG that they would beat Nederland so they did not fully prepare like they should have done and it cost them.I agree with Nederland wanted it more. You could tell from the coin toss that the Indians weren’t fired up. I would put much more blame on bad coaching and play calling. When they keep stuffing the up the middle plays you try something else. The coaches didn’t have the team ready for this one and I don’t think the coaches were ready for this game. We have the talent and our coaches are great. Just weren’t ready.
