In a commanding preseason Week 3 performance, the Force dismantled the Outlaws with a 40-16 victory on the road, showcasing the effectiveness of Jeremy Ramirez’s offensive scheme and solid defensive adjustments. From the opening snap, it was clear the Force came prepared to attack the Outlaws’ defensive vulnerabilities with a high-volume passing attack complemented by a powerful ground game.

Winning the opening toss and electing to receive, the Force wasted no time imposing their aerial prowess. Quarterback George Coulter exploited mismatches in the Outlaws secondary, completing 30 of 42 passes for an impressive 469 yards and six touchdowns. Their initial drive featured a five-yard snap count to launch a 55-yard touchdown completion to wide receiver Brett Cartwright, who finished with 196 receiving yards and two rushing touchdowns, underlining his versatile role in Ramirez’s offense. This aggressive passing approach forced Outlaws defensive coordinator Gregory Snyder to scramble for answers early.

The Force maintained their offensive rhythm by mixing quick passes and designed run plays. Notably, after a forced fumble on a run by Ethan Sparks III in the second quarter, defense swiftly regained possession, allowing the offense to capitalize with another long touchdown pass. This seamless transition from defensive turnover to scoring drive highlighted the complementary nature of Coach Ramirez’s game plan.

Coulter showcased precision in pocket movement and progressive reads, particularly on a 48-yard touchdown strike to Quentin Rampage, who contributed a rushing touchdown himself. The Force capitalized again with a strategic 41-yard completion to Cartwright in the red zone, asserting dominance before halftime with a 28-3 lead. Special teams also contributed to field position battles, although the Outlaws managed a field goal late in the first quarter to break the shutout.

Defensively, while the Outlaws managed to limit third-down success, the Force’s defense was opportunistic, recovering two fumbles and throwing an additional two sacks into the mix, constricting Outlaws quarterback Anthony Fisher to 185 yards and two touchdowns. The Outlaws’ rushing attack was stifled for negative yardage (-2), showing the Force front seven’s stout approach to gap integrity and run fits.

The second half saw the Force solidify control with a touchdown to tight end Donald Gutierrez, demonstrating the diverse receiving options in Ramirez’s scheme. This macro-level offensive balance between vertical threats and tight-end utilization showcased a matured and adaptable game plan, effectively neutralizing the Outlaws' defensive coverage.

Coach Jeremy Ramirez’s decision to emphasize quick reads, spread formations, and mix and match personnel mismatches kept the Outlaws off balance throughout the contest. Despite some turnovers in the backfield, the Force maintained offensive composure and defensive discipline, a promising sign as they build toward the regular season. This performance, marked by efficient execution and tactical adjustments, signals that the team is on the right trajectory in preseason development.

Overall, the Force’s 40-16 victory captured a comprehensive dominance rooted in superior offensive scheming, effective defensive stops, and timely special teams play — all hallmarks of Ramirez’s coaching philosophy. As preseason progresses, the Force look poised to carry this momentum forward.
