People all over the football world wonders why it was not more popular in the United States, but that’s only because they have not discovered American football. If they have, it is likely that football will start to decline in popularity as other countries switch to American football. Here’s why.
First of all, American football has a lot more strategy. Every single play has been designed with every other player on the pitch in mind, and when the ball is up, the strategy that is used to attempt to gain yardage. On the other hand, in football, there is no drama, just a constant barrage of players like crazy trying to get the ball into the field.
Next, is the defense. Defend your territory in football amounts to little more than trying to walk in front of the man with the ball to knock it away or to one of your own players. There’s just not much to it. It takes a lot of skill to be able to defend your territory, but there just is not that much for an audience to watch. With American football on the other hand, every time the ball is there to raise defensive plays that have worked previously applied, and for every defensive play, there are a few more in the hands of the defense may withdraw must infringement pull off something of a surprise.
Also, with American football, the position of the players play more defined and thus easier to watch. Quarterback gets the ball every offensive play, the people on the block row or in a hurry. Block re-run or get the ball and run with it. Everything is clear so you know what to expect from different players and a watch when things get tight. With football, it’s just a mishmash of constant and chaos, and a lot of what happened was dumb luck rather than skill. A ball just happened to bounce to you, or run into you. It was almost as exciting as watching page thirty or forty pass on the sidelines to a player running full and find out if he made the catch that he is likely to score but could corner him in time.
And that brings yet another reason American football is better to watch, it has a real drama that generate fixed yardage. It’s very easy to see where things stand, you know how far the team had to go to score, and you can feel the tension and excitement of the mountain. With the football team down the field all the time but then nothing happens, again and again. It’s annoying.
And the last reason that American football is better than soccer uniform. Just look at the differences and clear.
