Their coverage logic isn't always right but it does kind of help visualize things for people. The skills trainer isn't a bad way to understand route concepts that beat certain coverages, but again the defensive logic is not nearly as advanced with checks like the NFL so it can oversimplify things a times.
I started out with trying to learn everything about a specific positions and the technique behind it. Then I went bigger picture in terms of concepts and positional schemes. Finally I ended up looking at total play designs. Kind of a bottom up approach to the game and it worked pretty well. I'd watch videos, read articles, follow people on twitter. Really, anything football was worth a read or a look to me because you never know where it might be applicable.
Fred was joking.
To the OP, listen to this guy Au165 about football, knows his stuff as do lots of posters on here like Synric etc.
I like listening to EmDiggy AKA Emory Hunt on YouTube, he does some nice breakdowns.
