"Play Football the NFL Way is the finest instructional book I have ever read. It examines, explains, and illustrates the important fundamental and skills so vital in playing the game. I found it to be concise and complete. It is ideally suited for the young aspiring athlete, to the developing high school or college player, and yes, even the top professional player. For coaches at all levels of competition, this is an excellent handbook that can be used as a reference or serve as the basic source of their work."--Bill Walsh, NBC Sports and former head coach, San Francisco 49ers.
