Some of this was ridiculously obscure. Terrible puzzle. Do better.

Enjoyed this one. My only bone to pick is the clue for 9D: "Interprets, as a defense does a quarterback". "Reads" was the only thing that made sense, but it's not football lingo to say that the defense reads the quarterback rather than vice versa. The clue should have been "Interprets, as a quarterback does a defense".

@Kathleen880 Agree 1000%. Terrible puzzle. NYT is trying too hard with this. Just give us a puzzle please.

@Steve L Or not. Been doing them a long time, and hate them.

@Striker Yeah, I'm aware, thanks. Just an odd turn of phrase for a NYT crossword in my opinion. I assumed it was written and reviewed by people who don't know football all that well, but maybe I'm wrong.
