I love this book, i bought this as i recently started playing american football and wanted to have an edge on the game that others didn't, this book gave me that to a certain extent i feel as if i could play anywhere :) my only dislke is its not technical with things such as D line pass rush moves eg(swim, rip, bull rush etc) and things like trucking, spinning, jukeing and linebacker game reading. But thats just personal choice being a linebacker/D-line, i would highly recommend this book to any one who is just interested in the game, thinking of playing or looking to improve.

Great for any football athlete playing any position
6 Aug 2006
Format:Paperback
I am a 17 year old senior in high school, and although I don't actually play football, I love the game and my favorite position is Quarterback.
This book covers how to be a good Quarterback very well, showing how to receive the snap, how to properly throw the ball, how to properly drop back, and even teaches you what mindset you should have - that is, if you are a player.
The book also covers every other position and area of football.. it has nearly everything you can think of, along with great pictures that demonstrate each and every step along the way.
Do you want to learn how to be a better Running Back? This book's got you covered.
Do you want to learn how to do better on the line? This book's got you covered.
Do you want to learn how to be a better kicker? This book's got you covered!
Perhaps the most impressive thing about the book is not just the content, but how it's presented. Since it practically goes step-by-step over each and every position, the book is suitable for coaches and players alike. So a coach will benefit from this book just as much as a player wanting to improve his position.
I would highly recommend this book, and I honestly can't find any flaws with it. It's well-presented, the author - Tom Bass - is a well-informed professional football coach, and you'll find just about everything you need.
If you are a football coach wanting to improve your team or a player wanting to improve your skills at a certain position(s), I highly recommend this book.

Great basic plan for every aspect on the field.

Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
This book does a pretty good job explaining everything from the quarter back position to defensive end and proper basic technique on how execute properly. Does not go into great detail with the different positions, such as Sam or Mike linebackers; but again explains the basics of ecah position and drills to execute better on the field as well. If you are looking for someplace to start to be able to coach and teach this is a great option!
