Team Members in the NFL are recognized for their skills on the field. Off the field it becomes even more fascinating when you see the things they can do with the ball during the times it’s not all about game winning touchdowns and field goals. Most of these football tricks can be seen on youtube and on some myspace pages etc. and you should probably view them as outlining them in the way that is done here certainly does not do them justice. These tricks are usually performed by players who want to get picked for to fantasy football leagues. Some of them can be learned by fans with practice but some are in fact dangerous and shouldn’t be attempted at home.

Christ Chambers of the San Diego Chargers manages to catch three footballs: one in each hand and then the third in between the other two. The balls are thrown from three different guys standing behind him. He turns his back to them and catches the first and second ball without ever taking a look. With his hands full he skillfully catches the third ball that is thrown using the other two. It s a very challenging trick to do, especially with your back turned to the guys tossing the ball to you.

Chris Cooley of the Washington Redskins shows his strength by actually punching through a wall to catch the football. He knocks on the wall to show that it is hard and then shows to the individual tossing the ball where on the wall he should aim then goes to stand behind it. He gives a signal and the ball is tossed. Amazingly he punches through the solid wall and catches the football without being able to see it, then pulls his hand, now holding the ball back through the wall.

Mason Crossby of the Green Bay Packers does an amazing job doing a trick using three footballs and a bell tower. He lines up the balls in a row as though he will be attempting field goals then kicks them one after the other up to the tower and causes the bell to chime.

Laurence Maroney of the New England Patriots demonstrates his ability to get through a small space by running full force at an SUV that has both its front windows down. Astonishingly he launches himself straight through both windows and emerges unscathed on the other side, still holding the ball.

Braylon Edwards of the Cleveland Browns amazingly catches 5 footballs hurled at him from a dispenser while being completely blindfolded. He even turns his back at some one point and still doesn’t miss.

Andre Johnson of the Houston Texans, launches a football himself and then runs the length of the field and catches it.

Jason Campbell of the Washington Redskins throws two footballs toward two receivers that are out on the field. The footballs hit each other and then bounce off each other and spin away into the hands of the waiting receivers.

Marc Bulger of the St. Louis Rams throw a ball at a score card being held up at the end of a field. Demonstrating his remarkable aim, he changes the number on the card each time he hits it with the ball.

Chris Simms of the Tampa Bay Bucaneers throwa three footballs into three bins positioned all over the field. To show that he is indeed talented, he then hits a bin that is placed in the back of a moving truck.
