In The Games That Changed the Game, Ron Jaworski, a one-time NFL MVP turned Monday Night Football analyst and pro footballs #1 game-tape guru, breaks down the film from seven of the most momentous contests of the last fifty years. With an eye toward the brilliant game plans and seminal strategic breakthroughs that revolutionized play on both sides of the ball, Jaworski offers readers a drive-by-drive, play-by-play guide to the evolutionary leaps that now define the modern NFL, as well as portraits of the seven men who exhibited both creativity and courage in bucking established strategies. From Sid Gillmans development of the Vertical Stretch, which culminated in the San Diego Chargers victory in the 1963 AFL Championship Game and launched the era of wide-open passing offenses, to Bill Belichicks daring defensive game plan in Super Bowl XXXVI, which enabled his outgunned squad to upset the heavily favored St. Louis Rams and usher in the New England Patriots dynasty, the most cutting-edge concepts come alive again through the recollections of nearly seventy coaches and players interviewed for this book.
Writing with the same vivid, passionate, and accessible style that has made him televisions go-to Xs and Os maven, Jaworski fills in the blanks for fans who arent satisfied with merely dropping the terms West Coast offense or 46 defense into conversation, but want to understand them fully, in context, as they were experienced by the men who played the game. Youll never watch the NFL the same way again.
Foreword by Steve Sabol, president, NFL Films
