Hello, silly Europeans are you confused about the wonderful sport that is known as American football?
Well look no further, after a confrontation around 2 weeks ago when @D3V made a fool out of himself attempting to question me, @Aquaa, and @gLaCiAl I realized how few Europeans actually understand the REAL football so I found it appropriate to compile a basic guide to American football so when the international yearly game goes to London you inferior beings actually know what you're watching.
Step 1 Learn your teams.
There are 32 teams within the NFL split across 2 conferences and 8 divisions, there are 16 teams per conference, and 4 teams per division you don't really need to know the names as it will make no difference. As per any sport some teams are amazing and some teams are pretty fucking shit. Some of the following are examples.
Really good teams that you should support to look cool.
New England Patriots
New Orleans Saints
Los Angeles Rams
Kansas City Chiefs
Some really shit teams that you should roast any fucker who likes are the following
Any team from new york (Mainly the jets)
Cleveland Browns(They are actually decent this year)
Oakland Raiders
Arizona Cardinals
Step 2 find a good player on a team you like.
Find a really good player on your favorite team preferebly one of the 4 good teams listed above (Please note the Patriots are the easiest to choose a player from) and then grow a man crush on said player. For example. TB12 is the GOAT(Greatest of all time) I would let him fuck me harder than I fucked @Bean Can's sister.
Step 3 rules.
The NFL has some really bullshit rules a lot of the time but here are the basics.
1 Team is on offense trying to get a touchdown(get into the endzone in front of you)
1 team is on defense attempting to prevent that,
The Quarterback is the guy that throws the ball, he can throw it forward as long as it isnt beyond the blue line you see on TV
There are 4 downs per possesion meaning the offense has 4 tries to attempt to get past the orange line you see on tv (First down line) if the offense fails to convert on 3rd down they may elect to punt the ball to the other team. IN which case they will kick the ball to the other team and the other teams offense will come out into the field. Or they can go for it, in which case the offense will stay out on the field and attempt to pickup the first down, if they fail then the ball will turnover and will be left where the ball is on the end of the play (unless the pass is incomplete in which case the other teams offense will take over at the line of scrimmage.) If the offense scores a touchdown they can kick a PAT (Point after touchdown) to score 7 points rather than 6. a touchdown scores 6 points, a field goal is 3, a safety is 2, and a PAT is 2. If a team goes for 2 in a PAT the offense will stay on the field and take the ball at the 15 yard line and attempt to get another touchdown but only get 2 points. Then there is another kickoff which is different from a punt.
IF you dont understand this to bad just proves europeans are inferior in their athletic ability, and capability to recognize a far superior sport then any of their own.
