American Football Would Be More Interesting If It Was More Like This



Maybe it's because this game looks a lot more like the "football" I'm used to watching... aka Rugby Union & Rugby League... but I've often wondered why NFL coaches don't do more of this. It would make the game far more interesting.

And someone get that commentator a valium. Quickly, before his ticker explodes.

NFL coaches don't do this because the pros don't play 'nice' and somebody ends up hurt. A lot. And there goes your investment...move that guy to injured reserve.

Yes, definitely get him a valium or something...

I think the problem is that NFL players are all about short distance speed, they just don't have the stamina to complete long plays like this. That said though I can see a definite advantage to moving the ball around more during each play.
