"Daryl Johnston has written the complete encyclopedia of professional football. It's both and explanation and a celebration of the game we love." Fox Sportscaster Dick Stockton., "Obviously Daryl did more than just block for Troy and Emmitt during his eleven-year NFL career--he became a student of the game. A great read to get ready for an NFL Sunday at home or at the stadium."Ed Goren, president, Fox Sports"In this terrific book Moose talks about the many skills necessary to be a complete player. But the game of football is more than technique-you need heart. My definition of heart is the desire, passion, and will to be the very best. My friend Daryl has heart."--Emmitt Smith, former NFL running back, "Obviously Daryl did more than just block for Troy and Emmitt during his eleven-year NFL career--he became a student of the game. A great read to get ready for an NFL Sunday at home or at the stadium." Ed Goren, president, Fox Sports "In this terrific book Moose talks about the many skills necessary to be a complete player. But the game of football is more than technique-you need heart. My definition of heart is the desire, passion, and will to be the very best. My friend Daryl has heart." --Emmitt Smith, former NFL running back, "I don't know that there is a more appropriate person to explain the nuances of watching--and appreciating--the NFL game on television than Daryl Johnston. As a player who enjoyed a very productive and rewarding career with the Dallas Cowboys, Daryl was an astute student of the game who thrived on preparation and execution. That professional dedication has followed him to the broadcasting booth where he has ascended to a level of success that mirrors his days as a player. This book will effectively allow the casual football viewer to earn a much greater understanding of what is happening down on the field. It will also give the serious viewer a higher level of respect and appreciation for the game, the men who play it, and the people who present it to the millions of fans who watch NFL football every week." Jerry Jones, owner and general manager, Dallas Cowboys, Obviously Daryl did more than just block for Troy and Emmitt during his eleven-year NFL career—he became a student of the game.

Synopsis
Daryl Johnston's name and voice are known to millions of television viewers who hear his insightful commentary on NFL telecasts each week during the football season. But football fans first learned to love him years ago, when "Moose" was a crowd favorite on the Dallas Cowboys' Super Bowl championship teams of the 1990s. A bruising fullback with an unyielding work ethic, Johnston enjoyed the respect of teammates and fans in Dallas almost from the moment he joined the club as a second-round draft pick out of Syracuse in 1989. He earned national recognition in 1993, when he became the first blocking fullback selected to represent the NFC in the annual Pro Bowl game. Moose's blocking helped the Cowboys win three Super Bowls in four years from 1992 to 1995, and helped pave the way for Dallas running back Emmitt Smith to ascend to the top of the NFL's all-time rushing charts. Johnston was a thinking man's football player--an athlete determined to get the most out of his abilities by outsmarting his opponent as well as outhitting him. And when he retired from football following the 1999 season, he brought that same competitive edge to his role as a television analyst, first for CBS in 2000, then for Fox Sports since 2001. In 2004, he was teamed with veteran Dick Stockton and former NFL defensive star Tony Siragusa on one of Fox's most popular announcing crews. Daryl knows that spectators who just follow the football are missing much of the game. We can all see the quarterback hand the ball to the running back, and the linebacker make the tackle. But there are 22 guys in motion on every play. In "Watching Football, Moose draws upon his playing experience and years of expertanalysis on television to bring the entire field into focus. So the next time you tune in an NFL or college game on television, you'll know what's coming--almost before the players do!, Daryl Johnston's name and voice are known to millions of television viewers who hear his insightful commentary on NFL telecasts each week during the football season.
