A reviewer gave a very nagative review. He may be working with a competitor!! Check the book against the review and you will find that the stances are perfect and there is no recommendation to contact the middle of the chest with the face mask. In fact that is illegal. What was said it to aim to the side of the chest with the face--the face will then slide to the side of the ball carrier's body. If you aim the face at the side of the body and the ball carrier cuts the other way you miss. We told you how it it is taught from the high school to the pros. But the youth league coach knew more than we do--but then we've only coached for over 80 years total. If you want a higher level book buy the Coaching Football book as many youth coaches have done. Bob O'Connor
This book is excellent for coaches looking for new drills.

If I were to recommend one book I would recommend this one. There really isn't any substitute for watching a lot of film and breaking down plays, but this book gives the most usable strategies and clearly describes the fundamentals
