Answer 7

-11 men from each team are on the field at the time

-there is a quarterback, runningback, mostly 2 wide recievers, a tight end and 5 offensive lineman who block on offense

-on defense you have 2 defensive ends, 2 tackles, 2 outside linebackers, a middle linebacker, mostly 2 corner backs, a free safety and a strong safety

-the touchdown is worth 6 points, the extra point after a touchdown is 1 point...a field goal is 3 points, a safety is 2 points, a 2 point conversion is obviously 2 points.

-there is 32 teams in the NFL, split into two conferences the AFC and NFC.

--the Patriots win everything and i'm sick of it

-the Falcons, Dolphins and Texans suck bad

Answer 8

its played in nine innings in which both teams hit and defend,  is played in a diamond shaped field and hitting the ball out of the diamond shaped field is considered a "homerun"

Answer 9

Football players ARE HOT !!! thats the only thing I know about football

Answer 10

I can't tell you everything I know, because it'd be way too long and I'm not patient enough to type it all out for however long it would take.

The best way to learn about it is to first understand what the object of the game is and how it's scored.  After that, it's best to learn what the player's positions are, and what they are supposed to do in them.  (ex: the quarterback throws the ball, and offensive lineman protects the QB, etc.)

Points are earned, pretty much, in one of two ways.  Either the offensive team can kick the ball between the goal posts for a three-point field goal, or they can score a touch down for six points.  After a touch down, the team has a chance to score again for one or two points.  They can kick another field goal (for one point if successful) or they can try for a conversion, which is like going for another touch down, for two points.  In both circumstances the ball is placed at the three yard line.  Field goals are attempted more often than conversions because they are less risky.

There are too many playing positions to list them all, but wikipedia has a nice article that might help.

Answer 11

You sound like my girl, i could tell you everything I know but if you don't know anything it might be too abstract for you to understand.  I sat down with my girl and on a piece of paper i drew her the basic offensive and defensive formations to teach her the names of the positions of each player and there basic responsibilities.  it helped her a lot cut the game can be complex with all rules.  watch plenty of Football on saturdays and sundays and eventually it will come to you
