Name that player!

"Squeezing" the ball is one of the first lessons backfield players must master. Note the way Glenn Presnell of the Detroit Lions has the ball cradled in the hollow of his arm, the hand making a basket over the end and the oval pressed tightly against his ribs. Tendency among young players is to let the ball dangle loosely when about to be tackled and causing a fumble with the tacklers shock. A back must learn instinctively to hug the leather hard at the moment of impact. Many a fine open field run has been spoiled because the carrier fumbles into the hands of the other team and offsets his long gain. "Hug that ball." Glenn Presnell, University of Nebraska, All American Halfback, 1927, Best place kicker in National League. 5 ft. 10 inches, 188 pounds.



November 17, 2002: Weekly Wrap Up: Playing brilliantly even after suffering a broken ankle that would sideline him for the rest of the year, McNabb equaled his career high with 4 TD passes (three in the second quarter) as the Eagles downed Arizona on November 17 in Philadelphia. He found four different receivers with his scoring tosses, completing 20 of 25 passes for 255 yards.



Despite missing five games with a fracture of the upper arm, Houston's Warren Moon still finished among AFC leaders in many categories. The perfect field general for the rigorous "Run 'n Shoot" offense, Moon finished the 1992 season as the AFC's top rated passer with an 89.3 mark. The man with the ageless arm also finished fifth in completions (224), second in the AFC in completion percentage (64.7%) and third in TD tosses (18). While leading the AFC's top-ranked passing attack, Moon made the most of all opportunities. He paced the conference by throwing a TD every 5.2 passes, proving not only that he could still perform but that, despite the development of an Oiler running game in the person of Lorenzo White, the "Run 'n Shoot" was still a fully loaded gun with the most lethal gunslinger in the East or West with his finger on the trigger.
