Question

What is the least recognized and the most supportive position in american football?

Answer 1

Water boy.

Answer 2

The Men's Athletic Groin supporter.

Answer 3

Depends on the Arm of the QB if he is a Righty or Lefty .

It would be the Tackle that protects the QB's blind side

Answer 4

Cornerback. They defend the wide receivers and make big plays when the game is on the line.

Answer 5

The Center is.  He is the anchor of the offensive line, and he is the main protector of the QB.  However, no one talks about him unless he botches a snap.

Answer 6

kicker wins the game when the offense cant

Answer 7

If the running back is good, its the fullback because he is the won that helps the RB get their. overall, though, i think its the o line. the quarterback and running back are nothing without them.

Answer 8

left tackle or right tackle......to me the most important but most over looked

Answer 9

The left tackle is the most important position assuming the quarterback is right handed, because it protects his backside. However left tackles, good ones, are consistently paid as well as RBs WRs and QBs.

The center is the heart of any team and they certainly are not recognized enough. The center is in charge of calling out blitzes and adjusting the lines protection accordingly. They have to be incredibly intelligent as well as athletic.  

Answer 10

Has to be the Center.  They do all the work up the middle and snap the ball.  They start every play, and you never hear anyone comment on them.  They have a lot of responsibility, and no recognition.  If Tom Bradys center wasn't good Brady would suffer.

Answer 11

On most teams, the QB's blindside tackle. On run first teams, the fullback.

Answer 12

Center. He is basically the QB of the offensive line

Answer 13

Center

Answer 14

A good Full Back is huge as well as Center. Both underated and not noticeable as much as the prima donna positions.
