    You might wanna watch a game as well so you see it all in action (and you get a better feeling for it, instead of just trying to learn it all by heart). Announcers will explain things, too. Don't have a link for you but just search around Youtube there sure are whole games posted.

    Well I must admit I'm no football fan (NBA ftw!) so I really don't know but I guess you do a Google search on an epic Super Bowl and then watch that one  Cheesy

    Start running for stamina and speed.

    Top ten fastest NFL players of all-time


    The NFL's Fastest, many were World Class Sprinters.

    Ron Brown, Willie Gault and Bob Hayes were Olympic Sprinters.  Hayes won Gold and was the WR Holder in the 100 meters.

    Both Bo Jackson and Deion Sanders have been clocked in 4.12 for the 40 Yard Dash.
