Good info and well said.Just a little Intel ....this from me personally and I have NO inside Intel whatsoever...
Deshields is a baller and leader and wants the ball in his hand when the game is on the line... He WILL play or atleast start friday night.
The messages about WB playing him all 4 quarters and not resting him is simply false.... I have been to every game in person except the Woodridge and Revere game and watched them online.... he only played all 4 quarters in 3 games this season (Canfield, Alliance, Salem). Revere, Howland, Minerva he was out after halftime or the first drive of the second half.... Ridgewood,Carrollton,Woodridge , and Marlington played 3 Quarters. So our back up QB has played quite a bit and he also has played some defense for us this year so he is game ready. I watched him play against a very physical one dimensional Carrollton team with no rushing attempts and simply stood in the pocket and spread it all around throwing for 5 tds in basically 3 quarters. That being said his athletic running ability is what we will need to take us to the next level and against quality opponents ( like Struthers). I know he won't be 100 % but if he can be 60% that may be enough...
I'm trying to figure out who Struthers is Similar too on our schedule? From what I'm reading is that they are predominantly a running team with the occasional deep ball. Is that true? The teams we have faced like that I would say would probably be Howland, Carrollton I see Struthers being comparable to Carrollton with better Athletes and some of there positions.
As far as the kicking situation... In week 1 our first missed extra point was by #2 and then we were basically chasing the rest of the night going for 2.... It ultimately costs us the game otherwise WB is 11-0... #44 Is definetly the more accurate PAT kicker... However as stated #2 does our kickoffs and occasionally puts in into the endzone and has kicked a few field goals this year.. and against Salem there was a personal foul on us after a TD and he kicked a long PAT that was Good by Atleast 15 more Yards the distance isn't his issure its Accuracy. I wouldn't be suprised if we attempt a FG on Friday if needed.
