. This is for the best high school defense ever. I mean ever. 1983 Dangerfield Tigers.

I agree.  They should be compared to how dominant they are at their level.  Just because a great 3A defense couldn't stop a good 5A offense does not mean they shouldn't be considered as one of the best in the area.  That's about like those that throw stones at Crosby for last year's semifinal run being in D2.  Hello, we are the 3rd smallest high school out of 9.

 

Also, I don't think defense is a lost art.  I just think high schools have figured out how to do more than 3 yards and a cloud of dust.  

bingo !!! That is my point its all geard to offense and not defense . You have 7 on 7 camps , you have these kids throwing the ball 45 times a game with 4-5 receiver set , somebody is gonna be open , you have qb throwing for 2,000 yrds and rushing for 2,000 yards . The art of tackling is lost !! Not just high school but college and pro . Look at the numbers of baylor ,tcu ,A&M . If these teams over the last 3 years had an Alabama type defense i could guarantee there would have been a national championship trophy in the state of texas . Dan Marino threw for 5,084 yards and 48 tds in 1984 it took almost 30 years too break that record and it took brees 48 more attempts to do it in . As of 2007 up until now a mediocre qb can throw for 5,000 yards in the NFL . The numbers are inflated , just the thought that you can run the pistol , spread option plays in the nfl is crazy !! You can probably run the veer in the nfl which was unheard of back in the day . My point is there needs to be more emphasis on tackling and positioning on defense . To see cameron yoe put up 70 points on mineola was crazy !! But what was also crazy was they gave up 40 points . Crosby is looking good !!

Rule changes have heavily favored offense as well.
