Im 17 and a highschool football player. yes i train hard and heavy and eat alot!!! I figure i would switch it up and get some new products. One of them was Creakic. I took it for 2 weeks, I got stronger, but lost 3 pounds, which is not what im looking for. I need to gt stronger but gain weight. I read something on the internet that creakic does make you stronger but it is for bodybuilders that are cutting. So I am not going to take it and see what happens. What I am taking is Maximus, Nitro Tech, and intravol. Should I take a different creatine?

I can poop and lose 3 lbs, 3 lbs over 2 weeks is nothing. I would not attribute that to Creakic.
I would take a different creatine just because you are probably pay too much for Creakic.
Ditch the other supplements too once you run out. You are 17 and active, all you need is a good protein supplement, a multivitamin (a generic one from Target or Costo will work just fine), fish oil (for cardiovascular health, and yes even at your age), and creatinehttp://atlargenutrition.com/nutrition_detail.php?products_id=3.
Since your both playing football, taking in protein, and lifting make sure you are drinking an ****load of water too. My general rule is that if my pee isn't pretty mucdh clear (with the exception after taking a vitamin) I'm not drinking enough.

You could try taking RESULTS. It has creatine, beta alanine, hmb, and sugar.
I've been lurking for a while and the owner of the site said that nitrean is twice as good as regular protein powders. So if you take two scoops of nitro tech, one scoops of nitrean is just as good because of the blend they use.

I lost 14lbs in 7 days. Don't worry what the scale says. It is too easy to manipulate.

This is NOT true. Read some more. While At large protein is superior in some way's it is still protein. 24 grams is 24 grams.

Not all proteins are created equal.
It is true that you can use less of a superior product when compared to a lesser quality product. For example: Whey Protein Isolate is 90-94% protein whereas Whey Protein Concentrate is 70-85% protein. If we took the averages 77.5% vs 92% then 50 grams whey concentrate would yeild 38.75 grams protein, but 50 grams isolate would yeild 46 grams protein. This means that you could take 42 grams of Isolate and have the same amount of protein as 50 grams concentrate.
When you take a look at the big picture the difference can be substantial.
2 Pounds = 907.18474 Grams
2 lbs Whey Concentrate = ~703 grams protein
2 lbs Whey Isolate = ~835 grams protein (+132 grams)
Many of us buy containers larger than 2 lbs, but in that one container you are basically getting an extra 4-6 shakes.
This also holds true for egg and casein proteins.
