2016 Offensive outlook: (Please let us know the keys about your team on offense. What are your keys to having a successful year?)

No Huddle
Spread
WE must be able to establish a consistent run game to go along with our quick passing game. We have a lot of experience coming back on the offensive side of the ball. We have some very good athletes joining our team this year, with an experience group coming back.

2016 Defensive Outlook: (Please let us know the keys about your team on defense. What are your keys to having a successful year?)

4-3
We have to not give up big plays. We gave up to many big plays of 15 or more yards. We have to tackle better in the open field. We have many returners back on the defensive side of the ball and we our very excited about our newcomers

2016 Special Teams Outlook: (Please let us know the keys about your team on special teams. What are your keys to having a successful year?)

We have been very consistent not getting kicks blocked and blocking kicks. We have a good return game and should excel in this area with Johnavin County back to return kicks.
