How exactly do you think most NFL players learn their playbooks?
This was Michael Bennett's playbook when he was with the Chiefs.
Imagine how much bigger a QB's playbook is.
This is a sample of a play:
Using flash cards, his wife could hold a flashcard with a play on it and no terminology and Cassel has to describe the play.
I really don't think you understand how hard an NFL playbook is to memorize and how many visual aides NFL players use to memorize them. Here is how some other players memorized playbooks
