Practice Field Chalk Talk

Giving a spirited explanation of just how he wants a certain play to be run during practice, is coach Vince Lombardi in this photo from the 1960s. The chalkboard had its place on the practice field in those days, apparently, while the preference these days seems to be the dry erase board. This reminds us of the classic Lombardi NFL Films clip of the same subject matter, where he says, “what we're looking for is a seal here, and a seal here, and to run the play in the alley!”
