American Football Coaches Association has a series of books that are very instructional:

Not sure - can't really find the author's name. Heres a link to it on Amazon though.

Football Coaching Strategies will probably fit with what you want. It may be a little more offense-based that what you're looking for, though. I had it when I coached middle school football and found it to be a great resource.

Offensive Football Strategies and Defensive Football Strategies are more in depth. I would say they are your next step after digesting the information in the first book.

Start by reading this blog:

Next, read these two books:

http://www.amazon.com/Defensive-Football-Strategies-American-Association/dp/0736001425

Note that both of these books target high school coaching strategies, so they're relatively basic and don't go into a lot of detail.

Finally, go through this list of resources:

If you're still itching for material on strategy, look at books about the great coaches. There is a good one about Bill Walsh, but I don't recall the name of it.

What level of football are you looking for? Basic knowledge, high school/college level concepts, or NFL concepts? Offense or defense? Positions and what they do, or what the entire unit is trying to do?

There's books like this or this, which are sort of high school/college level descriptions of the game, and assumes you at least know the basics of the game (rules, what each position's role is, etc.)

This is a good resource for college/NFL-level concepts. This is a 'defensive bible' written by a former NFL coach.

Football is a complex sport that takes years and years to master. Feel free to ask questions here.
