Behind the Line

CHAPTER VI
13/23

"On your toes and run hard.

Have confidence in your quarter.

If the ball isn't ready for you it's not your fault.

Try that again." And when Paul and Neil and the full-back had plowed round the left end once more-- "Quarter, don't hold that ball as though your hand was frozen; keep your hand limber and see that you get the belly of the ball in it, not one end; then it won't tilt itself out.

When you get the ball from center rise quickly, put your back against guard, and throw your weight there.
And it's just as necessary for you to have confidence in the runner as it is for him to have faith in you.
