(Career band kid here.) I've watched from the stands for years; I've cheered/jeered/etc. the whole nine. But I never played the game. I want to be a more educated fan and be able to discuss the game at a deeper level than "X tackled Y for {some yardage} and that was/wasn't exciting."
I'm looking for recommendations for books or whatnot to better understand the game. Something that will explain what, for example, zone blocking is or when a wheel route is most effective. I can google any of these topics individually of course, but that is far less structured and relies on knowing what questions to ask.
So, what do y'all recommend to correct my football ignorance?
