Game Played Above the Shoulder Pads
Football is no only physically difficult, but mentally. Every week during that season you have to prepare yourself for your opponent that week. In the novel Through My Eyes by Tim Tebow, he talks about meeting up with his coach's and players before the SEC Championship watching Arkansas's film discerning their defense. "The next day in our meeting Coach Meyer had a video of the Arkansas's defense clips... the whole team was sitting there, stunned, thinking, Wow, that is crazy." (Tebow 118). I did the same and watched my own film against KW and went through a check list to identify our offensive and the defense that was ran by our opponent. As I watched film I took notes on what defense was being ran and what we could have done better on offensive to better read the defense.

I agree with the fact that football is a mental game. As a quarterback I like to think of it as a game of chess. If your pieces are in the correct spot at the correct time then things will workout. But that is all done because of the ability of being able to be smarter than your opponent.
