andycr15 's review for:
Playmakers: How the NFL Really Works (And Doesn't)
by Mike Florio
The book covers things that happened in the NFL in the first 20 years of this century. Be warned, even as 2023 ends, it's already a little out of date, talking about some things we now know how they panned out.
If you follow the NFL closely, you possibly know most of what is covered. Being in the UK myself, I remember many of the incidents but didn't perhaps know some of the details around them, so that was fun.
3 stars might be a little harsh, but early on the author annoyed me a little with some contradictions. 'The franchise tag is bad for players!', then shortly after 'The franchise tag really helped these players'. Not as simple as that, but that was the essence of it. Also, the author talked about his opinion like it was fact, too often.
