A quarterback is a leader on the football field, responsible for calling plays and directing the offense. The term can be broken down into four parts: 'BOSS' (4 letters), which refers to the quarterback's role as the leader of the offense; 'OVERSEE' (7 letters), which describes the quarterback's responsibility to manage the offense; 'PASSER' (6 letters), which indicates the quarterback's primary job of throwing the ball; and 'LEAD' (4 letters), which emphasizes the quarterback's role in guiding the team. The term 'quarterback' also has a literal meaning, as it comes from the phrase 'twentyfivecents' (15 letters), which was used to describe the position of the player who stood 25 cents back from the line of scrimmage.
