Super Bowl Reads

“Collision Low Crossers” by Nicholas Dawidoff

Here is football in many faces: the defensive coaches and their in-house rivals, the offensive coaches; and of course the players.

“Instant Replay” by Jerry Kramer and Dick Schaap

This memoir is a thoughtful account of playing for Vince Lombardi’s Packers during the 1967 season, in the era before ultrarich misbehavior artists dominated the NFL.

“100 Years of Glory: The Greatest Moments in NFL History” by Garner & Costas

Costas and Garner team up to compile photos and video of the most dazzling moments in football. Crytalized moments like these remind us why we watch sports in the first place.

“Undefeated” by Mike Freeman

The 1972 Miami Dolphins are the only team in NFL history to have a perfect season – a feat that has never been matched. Coach Don Shula resurrected a dying franchise, and made it into one of the greatest success stories of all time.

“The Blind Side” by Michael Lewis

The book is about Michael Oher, a huge young man from an impoverished family who gets heavily recruited for college teams and goes on to be an NFL star. It’s equal parts human interest, NFL analysis, and critique of college recruiting systems.

“North Dallas Forty” by Peter Gent

Arguably the best novel about pro football – and certainly the best one written by a player – this 1973 book is a rollicking and often trenchant satire of a team very closely resembling the Dallas Cowboys in the era when the sport was becoming truly big business.

“The Games That Changed The Game” by Ron Jaworski, Greg Cosell, and David Plaut

A meta-game look at the evolution of football strategy, this is a book for people who already know the game. Ron Jaworski and Greg Cosell, two of the best analysts in the industry, might just change how you watch football.

“The Blueprint” by Christopher Price

If you’re wondering why the Patriots seem to be in the Super Bowl every other year, this is the book for you. Price details the personal and financial changes the franchises made to become one of the most successful in history.

“The Ultimate Super Bowl Book” by McGinn & MacCambridge

The chronicle of every Super Bowl game ever. Tons of interviews, play-by-play analysis, and insight show the history and majesty (and failure) at the biggest sports even in the United States.

“When Pride Still Mattered” by David Maraniss

Vince Lombardi’s impact on how the game of football is practiced and played are still being felt. This profile of the man considered by many to be the greatest coach of all time also offers insight into the state of the game today.

“The Rise and Self-Destruction of the Greatest Team in History” by John Mullin

While the Dolphins may have gone undefeated, the ’85 Chicago Bears were the greatest team in history. Coach Mike Ditka assembled a crew of some of the biggest names in football history. This is the story of their greatest enemy: themselves.
