Riveting look at an expansion team's meteoric rise.

The way this book reads is a direct analogy to the Jaguars. A quick and powerful example of how to write and how to win correctly. The Andre Rison anedote and Tom Coughlin's use of fear to gain respect were excellent. With the Jaguars poised to make a run at the Super Bowl, I look forward to seeing a following on this model franchise by these two gifted writers.

This "beyond the line of scrimmage" story is outstanding.

Anyone who regularly reads the Florida Times Union sports page would expect that John Oesher and Pete Prisco could provide this fascinating and sometimes provocative story of how this world class franchise was put together. The pair's sensibility and willingness to force Coach Coughlin's respect lends to a short but compelling read.
