Guard might be a good choice.

Dauntless or Leader

Dauntless, Mighty Blow, Dodge, Leader, or Guard. On my Amazons, I tend to favor Sure Feet as well, but that's because I roll an abnormal number of 1's on my GFIs.

Hey - you could always try Piling On

You could give him -1 to all his stats, a niggling injury and take off his block skill!

Gives me an easier time when I destroy..... Erm I mean *play* you on Thursday

Mwhahahahaha!

In seriousness you've already got one with Pro yeah? Why not develop another blitzer or something? Or maybe give him hail mary pass and buy yourself a catcher and get him diving catch?

Yeee-haw!

I am a big fan of giving one non thrower hail mary pass just as an escape outlet. Leave him by your own endzone when on defence, block the guy with the ball and then chuck it back the other direction. This is a good way to really annoy your opponent when he is trying to score in two turns and now needs two turns to even get it back to the line of scrimage

I have never played the norse before, but all my experience says dodge and gaurd make mighty fine combos with block. So my vote would be hail mary if that is your style of play, otherwise dodge or gaurd.

just to let you all know, after much thought i decided on dodge, and then rolled the result on the handicap table that gives a player the jump-up and frenzy skills!!!!!!!

can anyone say ninja norse!!!!
