football is a game of possessions

There are many different theories of how to win football games. My theory is pretty straightforward--football is a game of possessions.  Control the clock; don't turn the ball over; and have more possessions than the other team and you're in good shape to win.  I'm not a fan of the quick scoring fad which has infected college football. Problem is--quick scoring teams leave too much time on the clock.

Number three son's football season is coming to an end. His team lost its first play-off game because it fumbled the ball 4 times.  That's a killer, even in 4th grade football.
