Phil Simms on Passing: Fundamentals of Throwing the Football
This book breaks down the act of passing a football into all its facets. The author is a former star quarterback in the National Football League who is now a fairly articulate and analytical football broadcaster, so he knows his subject and how to convey it. Simms details the basics of the stance, the snap, the drop-back, the grip, and throwing the football. He includes recommended drills, exercises, and routines to practice these basics and the text is augmented by numerous photos and illustrations that demonstrate good and bad form. Commentary from other prominent players and coaches as well as some personal anecdotes from Simms add interest to the text. This book should appeal to any public or school libraries with users interested in instructional sports materials.?John M. Maxymuk, Rutgers Univ.
