Learn moreIn the world of modern football, no position defines a franchise like the quarterback. The QB is the story of a year in the making of those star players and of the most significant year in QB development in sports history. It is also the year five-foot ten-inch Russell Wilson wins the Super Bowl and, for the first time in over sixty years, a sub-six-foot QB, Johnny Manziel, gets drafted in the first round, forcing NFL power brokers to reexamine how they look at the position—and the game.
To tell the story of all that goes on to create the perfect quarterback, bestselling author Bruce Feldman gained unique access to "Johnny Football" (that's Johnny Manziel), George Whitfield, and many other players in what has become a specialized and high-stakes business. The QB tells the story of the interlocking paths of the most fascinating characters involved in this secretive world, examining how advanced analysis has taken root in football. The stories of these men illustrate how high the stakes of the quarterback's game really are, taking listeners on a compelling journey into the heart of America's beloved game.
Bruce Feldman is the New York Times bestselling author of numerous books and articles, including Swing Your Sword, Meat Market, and Cane Mutiny. He is the CBS Sports senior college football columnist, giving him unparalleled access to the new generation of quarterback gurus. He has covered college football for two decades, including seventeen years at ESPN. He joined CBS in 2011 and covers the sport for the company's broadcast, online, and cable platforms. His articles have been cited in several editions of The Best American Sports Writing and have been nominated for numerous national magazine awards, and he has won first place awards in contests sponsored by the Football Writers Association of America. Bruce lives in Los Angeles.
