2:08 Many players carry towels to wipe grass, moisture, paint, or rubber turf filler off of their hands between plays.
Right. The size of the towels were getting ridiculously big. So The league set the maximum size a towel can be.
Especially receivers, whose hands have to control a ball coming at them at a very high speed.
"what is that thing dangling from there bottom"
Well, not ONLY that. I imagine they also use tge towel for wiping away sweat, and blood.
The description of American football as "chess with full maxed out athletes " is correct. The play designs are extremely intricate. Each player has specific responsibilities based on the events of each play. Just like chess, the offense is trying to deceive the defense, and the defense is trying to read the offense. Each play is a chess move trying to move your team down the field.
More like the game 'GO' then chess, because the game of 'GO' is to chess as chess is to checkers...the game 'GO' is FAR superior to chess, it always makes me laugh when people make big deals out of chess players, now if you can Master 'GO' then that would be something.
@@RFredrickPhotography As a player of both games, and above average in both as well, you can't compare the two. Chess involves limited motions where one must plan up to 8 turns in advance for an attack, while GO allows free range for any part of the board. While it is true that mastering GO is more difficult, both games require completely different skill sets. Chess is entirely based on maneuvering your pieces into a formation that will allow victory, while GO requires one to deceive an opponent and unsuspectingly create fences around an area.
So true
@@RFredrickPhotography Comparing Go to Chess is like apples to oranges. It's different kinds of strategy. Go is about long-term strategy and Chess is about setting up or threatening single move tactics or getting a favorable endgame position. Finding those tactics is far more complicated in Chess than it is Go. Go has a lot more board positions but it's not an inherently more complex game in terms of how it's played.
I stand by my comment, the very fact that people are trying very hard to defend chess proves my point. The game go is harder to play than chess.
Google "How is the game go harder than chess?" At the opening move in Chess there are 20 possible moves. In Go the first player has 361 possible moves. This wide latitude of choice continues throughout the game. At each move the opposing player is more likely than not to be surprised at their opponent's move, and hence they must rethink their own plan of attack.
Paint under the eyes reduces reflection from the stadium lights.
And sun
And they call it "eyeblack". Nowadays they also have matte black stickers which many players use, but the greasepaint is also still widely used as well.
And it makes you look badass so that's why guys wear it when there's no sun out or when it rains or snows😂❤😂
It’s also to intimidate the other team, a person with crazy eyeblack may distract or scare a player for 1 to many seconds to were they get the catch or tackle
@@MemonsProds As a former player, someone wearing eyeblack never once intimidated me lol.
2:50 The entire pylon is in bounds, so contacting it with any part of the ball counts as breaking the goal line, and as such, a touchdown.
Worst thing they ever did to football.
@@fasttruckman Serves the same purpose in Rugby, but the ball still has to be touched down in their end zone to count as a try.
A few of the touchdowns were questionable.
@@fasttruckman Are you slow? its always been like that
@@michaelstokes2587 Not so my friend. There was a time when the ball actually had to cross the white line.
American Football is extremely entertaining once you understand the rules, it just takes time to watch games and you will understand it and like it.
Fr
a lot of Germans already like it. as far as European countries go, Germany has the highest amount of American Football teams operating in it's country at a " pro " level. (something over here we'd probably call ' semi-pro'. That's one of the reasons that NFL game in Cologne ? ( i think it was ) was sold out and then some. People keep trying to or wanting to add an NFL team in the UK, which is understandable but only purely from a language barrier deal.
Most UK people still don't fully grasp what it is, even though it's getting more popular. The Germans on the other hand not only know it but love it...If I were an owner looking to go to Europe, I'd go to Germany instead where there's already a good portion of the populace that knows and likes the game. I mean that's just good business if you don't have to ' win ' over the populace.
It does take some time.
It's because people with no idea think it's all about brute strength. When you learn the game you realize it 99% about strategy and team work and 1% being a monster.

Football players often take unusual classes as part of their training including hurdles, high jumps, gymnastics and even ballet
Also boxing and jiu jitsu.
I heard a UFL player credit ballet classes for his agility in a sideline interview after a particularly impressive play this weekend. He was all about it, too. Ballet's been a training technique for decades and still going strong.
True
@@somecallmetim2112 My old baseball coach many years ago; he got all our shoe sizes and then went out and bought a bunch of high heels. He made us practice in those for months, but it taught us how to be able to stand using the balls of our feet rather than being flatfooted. Our reaction time to plays was so so much better, it actually improved my batting because it gave me more control over how I moved. The jokes about practicing in high heels from the others teams, they get real quiet when they are going 1-2-3 inning over, and our end is smacking dingers over 300ft and well over the fence (can't really say it was a wall).
I thought that was just a pro Athlete thing in general. Playing other sports build up different parts of the body and give the over used ones more rest to reduce injury
Tyreek Hill (final play) is an Olympic level track athlete who is one of the fastest players in NFL history. He runs the 40 yard dash (36.58 meters) in 4.29 seconds. Usain Bolt (all time fastest Olympic runner) runs a 4.22
And he missed out on 2 rings
@@drmachinewerke1 Salty Chiefs fan.
@@drmachinewerke1 he has like 11 kids. He needs the paycheck more than the rings. Ya'll should pay Kelce, Mahomes, Thuney or Taylor less. ;-)
Granted usain bolt was in sweats and sneakers on grass. His true 40 is estimated to be around 3.6
@@h7chi Impossible. No one is running under 4 seconds. No one. MAYBE a 4.1something.
At 6:18, D.K. Metcalf reached 22.64 MPH and traveled 114.8 yards to chase down Budda Baker on his 90-yard interception return (Baker's top speed: 21.27 MPH).
Metcalf is 6’ 4” and weighs 236lbs
Baker is 5’ 10” and weighs 194lbs
Might want to translate it to metric. Metcalf is 107 kg and a bit short of 2 meters tall (2 meters is 6 feet 6 inches). 2 inches is about 5 cm.
The 'paint' under the eyes is called eye black. It's used to help fight the glare from the stadium lights or the sun. It's also used in baseball, which is my experience with it, and you would not believe how much it helps you to see on an extremely sunny day.
This is why cheetahs have a stripe running from their eye to their nose. Acts like sunglasses. So does eyeblack.
Specifically, because your brain will filter out unnecessary data from your vision (for example, your nose is always in your vision, but you don't notice it because it is filtered out.) But in particularly bright light, light will actually reflect off your cheeks (also always in your vision) and will cause glare. Eye black helps alleviate that. But, it is also for intimidation and personal style. A lot of players have a particular design they use. Even if the player doesn't need it for glare, it is worn as warpaint.
Yeah was coming here to say this. Used it in both baseball and football, but played baseball through college and it made a large difference. Sunglasses never worked with me because it really messed with my depth perception, so eye black was a savior.
@@tyrionstrongjaw7729 It really is amazing how much of a difference that stuff makes.
Their athleticism is unbelievable. My cousin, a tiny 5’2” ballerina, taught ballet to college football players for almost 20 years.
LOL! I’m 5’1 and did a yoga class with some of my University football team’s biggest guys… they’re unreasonably huge 😂
@@hopelawrence2022 I was a lineman when I played, my playing weight (in high school) was 6'4 270. Had I not been hurt before going to college, I likely would have played about 320. Solid muscle too.
I met an offensive lineman once. He was massive. About 6'10" and 280lbs to 300lbs, and a lot of it was muscle. When he shook my hand, it was like grabbing a rock. One of the nicest guys I ever met.
O-linemen are gentle giants.
When Europeans watch football on TV…I guess most Americans too…
Unless you see a game in person, you have no concept of the size of these guys.
That would have been a very skinny OL. At that height/weight combo, he would have been pushed all over the place. But yeah, us OL are some of the kindest people you will ever meet. Its our job to protect people, its the DL guys that are the nasty ones lol.
They make me feel tiny. At 6' 180lbs ~10% body fat, they always made me feel out of shape too. Then again they called me crazy for not being afraid of a 100mph slapshop. Mutal respect from mutually good dudes.
The orange pylons are both the visual and physical markers for the corners of the end zone. Since the ball just has to break the front line of the endzone to be considered a touchdown, the pylons serve as a target for players willing to risk it as the bare minimum as to where the ball has to be in order to count as a touchdown. Essentially, hitting the pylon= hitting the corner of the endzone.
You can catch with both hands but often the other hand is used to fend off a defender
Or to break a fall - act as a balancing aid, to keep moving forward
Last clip: Tyreek was a fairly accomplished track runner when he was younger. They call him the Cheetah for a reason, lol. When he gets in open field, pretty much nobody in the league can catch him.
Also, the "white thing" hanging from their belts is just a towel to dry their hands for a better grip.
The black under the players’ eyes is to reduce sun glare.
What I find amazing about the players is they get hit so hard and (usually) still hang on to the ball.
Great video👍🏼
And those hard landings on their backs, upper back, butt and shoulders!!! I'd be crippled after that kind of fall/landing.
@@OkiePeg411 A lot of them do judo breakfalls. At least, everyone on the Niners and Seahawks do. The Dolphins made their quarterback take jiu jitsu to learn to breakfall after he got those concussions. Much safer if you do a breakfall.
These guys are so great at athletics but some of the moves they pull off is amazing when you see how big they are! They are almost all huge human beings, it's hard to tell until they are near regular sized people
We have a retired NFL player at our church, and he is BIG. Really nice guy.
One time I stayed at the same hotel the Raiders were staying in. Got in an elevator with several of them. They are huge. Also mostly very young.
Probably average weight is 100 kg and the linemen (offense and defense) can get up to 150 kg.
These athletes TRSIN HARD before we games and are therefore REFLEXES ( Muscle Memory) used during Real time game Situations. Very few can do the the Best Ones!!
@@pyrovania thanks for sharing your memory. That's something I would have enjoyed. Oops! I should clarify. I'm a senior and it wouldn't have been for sex interest.
@@marymorris6897 Ha ha!
Something about a soccer fan reacting to a football video kindly warms my heart 😂
he does not even now how rare it is for a qb to hurdle😂
Omitting Larry Allen’s chase down from this list is a huge omission.
Its absolutely like chess, but even more nuanced. Imagine being an offensive or defensive coordinator. You have 11 pieces and you have to cover the board. The opponent is adjusting to your gameplan, identifying and attacking your weaknesses. Your opponent is trying to predict what youre gonna do and youre trying to predict what theyre gonna predict and do the opposite. And player skill is a far larger variable than a fixed set of moves
Not to mention all your players are moving at the same time instead of one at a time. As a Chiefs fan, I have gained so much respect for Reid and Spags running our offense and defense over the years.
The paint is to absorb the sunlight, acting as a sort of sunglasses, without the actual sunglasses
For a touchdown, you just have to have possession of the ball with any part of the ball on, above, or beyond the goal line. If you are diving across the sideline as you do it, the ball has to cross the goal line inside the field of play. The orange cones at the corner are to mark this; if the ball touches it on the way out, it counts, but if it passes outside the marker without touching it, it will be put into play next where it crossed the sideline.
2:10 - that's a towel to dry their hands between plays.
In that last clip you said "How did he outplay the whole team." You might also like a video called "Devin Hester you are Ridiculous" -- he broke a lot NFL records by doing just that throughout his career and is arguably the best of all time at it.
Yes, it is quite rare to have a one handed catch and when it does happen, it usually ends up on a highlight reel
Most highlight compilations naturally focus on offense and scoring. But plenty of defensive plays are just as incredible, if not more. Particularly a Troy Polamalu highlight reel, his Top 50 is full of stuff most guys would be happy to do once in their career.
Whoever put this video together seems very impressed by flips into the end zone. While they look “cool” I’m more impressed by the more subtle athletic moves.
These are world class athletes. They have been training since they were kids ✌️
American football is mostly a fall and winter sport: College football runs from late August to early January, and the NFL runs from September through mid-February (though the NFL does have some preseason games--similar to a "friendly" in soccer--starting at the beginning of August).
If you want to get into watching an American sport that is being played right now, and still has a lot of games left in its season, you might want to check out baseball! It's the oldest American sport (and the only one that is older than the popularity of college sports in the US, so its player-development system isn't entirely dependent on colleges). The NFL may be the most popular league in the US nowadays, but baseball was a HUGE part of American culture and history.
The orange thing on the corner is called "the pylon". They mark the very edge of the end zone. The part of the rules that lead to plays like Julio Jones' diving touchdown, is that if you are able to knock it over with the ball, it would've had to pass the line. As long as no part of the body touches out of bounds before the pylon is knocked over, it's a touchdown. There are a lot of nuanced rules to the game.
The orange thing is called a pylon. If the player is going out of bounds but he can touch the pylon with the ball it's considered in bounds and he scores a touchdown
How did he outplay the whole team?
My man, let me introduce you to man named Devin Hester. A kick return specialist who broke the record for returning punts and kick offs for touchdowns.
Brandon Aiyuk (3:14) and Christian McCaffrey (3:38) are now teammates since McCaffrey went to the San Francisco 49ers.
Aiyuk likely isnt there this year though. Niners arent gonna pay him what he wants, and he's not happy about it.
I am not a sports person but NFL is always fun to watch. It really is one of the most entertaining sports in my opinion.
The sheer level of talent on the field.
The superhumans in the NFL are absolutely, positively, can’t even argue with me, the most exceptional athletes, the most most athletic humans, on the planets, bar none.
Greetings from Arizona, US. Professional Quarterbacks can throw the football with so much power and speed, that it's Amazing that other players can catch some of these throws with just 1 hand. That's the exception... usually receivers can get 2 hands on a football throw. :)
Those towels hanging out is to keep your hands dry/clean. One hand catches are rare as you use two... if you can.
Sometimes somersault into the end zone is just a celebration! Paint under the eye is to help with the glare of the
sun/stadium lights.
The game grew out of the us Civil War, so think napolionic warfare. Frederick, the great quarterback for the Hohenzollern Eagles. after 0:02 a few setbacks in previous seasons. Came back to score in the fourth quarter in the superbowl, at waterloo stadium against the French.
If you saw the NFL training videos, you might see the agility training routines they players go through.
Glad you can appreciate our crazy American sport. Hope this reveals why we aren't near the top for football/soccer. Our best athletes tend to play American football, basketball, baseball and/or hockey
To answer a few questions I remeber you asking,
No, you can catch it with one hand. 2 hand, or even no hands (yes, that's happened) and no, you don't need to hit the orange thing (pylon pronounces pie-lawn) to score a touchdown, but you can if you need to.
Btw for the one hand question, no you do not need to catch with one hand. Most of the time one handed catches (objs catch) are only done as a last resort, and most of the time they don’t succeed. And for hopkins catch he couldn’t really do both hands because the db (defensive back) had control of one of his arms so he tipped the ball with the other and drew the ball in with his other.
As A American Football player this was extremely funny to watch
The paint is called eye black. It draws the sunlight away from your eyes so you can see better
I like how he reacts after the play it’s really exciting and by the way you can catch with both or one hand, they wear accessories like paint and towel and backplates and visor for looks, grip with hand and throw with pointer finger straight spiral everytime
All you have to do is hit the orange pylon to make it a touchdown.
Remember that the average NFL player is 6’2”- 6’3” and weighs 245-250 lbs. Not to mention they are top tier athletes.
The way they twist and turn is called a “juke.” Looking like you’re going one way, then going the opposite. Confusing to the player trying to take you down.
The black under their eyes draws the sun or light so it’s not right in their eyes. You can catch with one hand or two…any way to get ahold of that ball.
Thanks for your reaction, I really enjoyed it. You should check out ‘Football’s Hardest Hits, Here Comes The Boom’. It’ll blow your mind. Hi from Houston, Texas!
Hell, we've had official helmet catches lol.
I love your enthusiasm for gridiron football. Soccer was new for me, and I really appreciate the abilities of those athletes, too. Thanks for your video!
A bit of clarity for you about those plays around the sideline/endzone. They leap before going out of bounds, so while they're in the air the ball is still in play. they don't go out of bounds until they land. If they can hit the orange post at the goal line or physically move the ball across the goal line before touching the ground it's considered a touchdown, but only if they still maintained control of the ball. if it was falling out of their hand, it wouldn't be a touchdown.
Also the thing hanging out of the back of their pants is a towel so they can wipe their hands or face of sweat, or mud, or rain, or blood, or snow, or a mixture.
I'm almost afraid to get this guy watching Barry Sanders footage... I think his brain would explode
These plays are even more impressive when you understand that the opponents are the best in the world at stopping these plays.
At 2:42 when he asks “does this count,” the announcer says, “Yes it does.” 😂😂
10:20 When you hold the football, grip it tight, as you grab on, hold the white laces with at least 3 of your fingertips & spin it as you let it fly. That sends the ball into a ''spiral', like a bullet.
Here's a link to one of the most phenomenal & versatile players of all time. The Great, Walter Payton. (Chicago Bears)
th-cam.com/video/h2ai8Fr7BWw/w-d-xo.htmlsi=lP8h5pVAejpVfuhK
8:22 that’s eyeblack and it’s used to keep the sun from getting in your eyes
I remember watching most of the games was so crazy
The thing hanging out of the back part of their leg pads is called.... a towel to wipe the sweat off the player's face.
Off the hands, not the face, but otherwise correct.
Chess is a great way to explain this sport. The play calls are all made based on formation and statistics, they’re playing the odds on any specific area of the field, it’s all about territory
2:52 The orange post is called a pylon. If the ball either touches the pylon or crosses the line inbound from the pylon, it's a touchdown. If the ball crosses the line outbound from the pylon, it is out of bounds at the 1 yard line.
The towel hanging from the Quarter backs belt is to keep their hands dry
2:52 if you touch the pylon with the ball (orange post) it is in and everything inside of it is in but anything outside of that pylon is out of bounds
Hopkins 8:49 had a catch that should have counted that was one of the craziest ever. Where he caught the ball mid air, between his legs, and behind his back.
02:02 - That little thing is a towel. Just a basic towel. If your hands get muddy, or wet, or maybe bleeding from a cut, you have a towel there. I think some guys just wear them to wear them, too.
08:22 - That stuff on their cheeks is called "eye black." Think of it as lipstick made from grease. It's used to prevent glare from lights, the Sun, etc.
09:02 - One-handed catches are usually because you can reach further out with one hand/arm. You can extend farther from stretching out one shoulder, as opposed to both. Try it for yourself. Reach up a wall. Having said that, some just do it for the highlight reels... lol
11:00 - No. You do not have to touch the "orange thing." That is called a "pylon" and it's a clear marker for the boundary lines of the End Zone. In order to score a touchdown, any part of the ball mush "break the plane" of that front edge. It must cross over any point on that white line, or those two pylons. Much like an auto race, where two cars reach the finish line within tenths of a second of each other. Whoever broke the plane first, wins.
11:56 - Because he's Tyreek Hill. lol
In american football, plays like that happen fairly often. I’d say a handful of plays per game are really impressive whether it’s freakishly athletic or just takes unbelievable skill to do. Part of the reason why I love it so much, every play has the potential to be a highlight
The paint is to reduce glare that comes from the lights or sun when you're sweating. It can be blinding at times especially if you're really sensitive to light. It allows you to see everything better.
There are many athletic plays in the nfl each year. I recommend reacting to more!
2:20 it's a towel that players use to wipe sweat/dirt/moisture off their hands to better grip the ball
My favorite athletic play is by the late Larry Allen. Very very large man who hit Mach 97.
I love you man your so kind and loving😊
Thanks for watching American football Chris. My dad played for Florida State so I love football . Especially college ball
You should 100% look at the biggest football hits to see another aspect of the sport
Yeah, a lot of the flips over the goal line were just flexing. [nod] They're fun to watch, but I agree that the ones where they're actually flipping *over* someone to make the touchdown are much cooler.
If you like the runs where they're jerking back and forth and doing spin-moves and such, check out Best Jukes. And of course, the NFL Biggest Hits Here Comes the Boom video is a classic for a reason. :)
11:02 The reason he does that is to 1.Extend the play because there is only 40 seconds left on the clock and 2.because he was falling the orange thing is called a pylon and that is what helps players score touchdowns
The orange thing in front of the edzone is called a pylon. If the ball hits it while in control of an offensive player, it's a touchdown. The tip of the ball just has to hit the front of the goaline or a pylon for it to be a td
I’m glad to finally see a European respecting an American sport because most European people usually say that oh we have girly sports and yes one hand grabs are uncommon
American football is like a violent car crash with maxed out super athletes.
You are starting to grow on me😂
The players often have other sports they were good at, the running backs often have track and field skills, and kickers have soccer background. These are unusual and incredible plays, more the exception than the rule. Also a lot of these plays you were asking about the boundaries. Each play can be hotly contested because it is up to the referee and what they see.
2:06 it’s a towel for when they get sweaty and some players actually do gymnastics
That obj catch changed recess you have no idea
The orange post counts as being in the field of play. If you touch it before going over the white boundary, it's a touchdown
NFL level play is incredible complicated and involved, strategies within strategies, different shifting tactics to respond to shifting tactics on the other side. And then we get to the actual athletic play ;)
The paint below the eyes aid in dulling down glare, I think.
What’s in their back is a towel.
And also u can catch with both or ome
9:48 A. Amazing athleticism is commonplace in the NFL (every play when you really think about it). Visually spectacular athleticism, the subject of this video is quite rare. Any one handed catch makes the highlight reel every time.
The orange marker is on the goal line and out-of-bounds line. If you have the ball and hit that marker, it is a touchdown. That's a towel hanging from his waist. It is to keep his hands dry to better hang on to the ball. Quarterbacks also use them.
8:24 The paint is called eyeblack, and it's to absorb more of the light from the sun and help keep the sun out of the players' eyes.
2:45 if the ball touches the orange pylon it is in (touch down)
It doesn’t have to touch the orange pylon that tells the players where out of bounds is and where the touchdown is 10:59 usually players do this if they are forced out or to show off
These are all the more impressive when you realize that each of these men are at LEAST 90kg in weight before they put on the pads. The linemen can be upwards of 158kg before pads. These men are monsters.
That’s where our football is different. Just the tip of the ball has to break the goal line (orange pillar) for a touchdown or safety to be scored.
I’m from America and my favorite sport is football and athletic plays like those are common.
I loved the comment about footballers being faster - then you see the Metcalf clip..
Oh, so, the white thing hanging from their trousers is a towel. and the paint under the eyes is to block the sun, since the black absorbs the light so the sun doesn't get in their eyes.
The pylon is both in the endzone and out of bounds at the same time. It's complicated.
If a loose ball touches the pylon then it's out of bounds, so a kickoff or punt that touches the pylon is a touchback, receiving team's ball on the 20 if a punt, the 25 if a kickoff. If an offensive player fumbles the ball and it touches the pylon before the ball is recovered, it's a touchback, defense gets the ball on the 20.
To score a touchdown you only have to get any part of the ball to the plane of the goal line. You don't have to touch the ball to the ground like in Rugby Football. If you're diving/falling towards the end zone if you get the ball to touch the pylon, or inside of the pylon before any part of your body touches out of bounds, then it's a touchdown. If you're diving towards the pylon, and you both fail to touch the pylon, or get the ball inside of it, and you land out of bounds, then the ball is dead at the location it crossed the sideline.
Many, if not most of these players are Olympic caliber athletes, or better.
You should look up the "beastquake" run. This video shows athleticism as far as running and jumping. But watching that run is a good example of how powerfull some of these players are.
th-cam.com/video/rh8wgqXtnII/w-d-xo.htmlsi=Vtf48a6JbNwXEDx7
This video is a good example of what I am talking about. It does also include the "beastquake" run although they don't say it in the video. It is the run by Marshawn "beastmode" Lynch against the New Orleans Saints.
the thing on the back of players is a towel to wipe off the moisture from the grass to not mess with the grip
2:03 it’s a towel players wear if their hands get sweaty or if they get grass stains
you should watch a nfl hardest hits compilation i think its help in understanding the physicality and strength that is also a huge part of the game
You need to look up the “Prayer in Jordan Hare” where Auburn University won against the University of Alabama (the best college team at the time) in the last second of play time. It was incredible. My sister was there and her friend tossed her over a hedge so that she could storm the field with everyone else.
American football is all about explosive power for five to ten seconds on average and then up to 25 seconds before the next play must be started (or a delay of game penalty of five yards and the loss of that"down").
Whereas soccer is straight cardio where players must pace themselves so they have endurance if needed to strike or defend on a break away.
The special part about it is how big they are in person running that fast
8:26 It's a product usually called "Eye Black", and it's a grease that keeps sweat from pooling under your eyes. It also reduces glare from sweat and sunlight.
The out the back is a towel to whip the sweat off your face
