In American football each team has 11 players on the field at any given time. Offense is when a team has the ball and is trying to score. The offensive line is the line of 5 to 6 men blocking the defense from stopping the play. This line is critical to the success of a play and of a team. If one mistake is made the result could be catastrophic for the player with the ball. This offensive line is comprised of a Center who hikes the ball to the quarterback, two Guards on either side of him and two Tackles on the outside of them. In some cases teams will use what is called a Tight End that will line up just outside either Tackle to assist further. In most cases the better an offensive line is the better the team is all around. Without them the quarterback is in serious trouble!
