| Re: American Football Stoppage time is the main reason why I have always liked rugby more than football both playing and watching.
Its hard to explain, but I think the simplest way is; There is more strategy involved in football than anything, especially on the coaches part. They develop very in depth and articulate game plans for every game, essentially a different play to call in every situation, and the coach is the one who determines that. Than the athletes themselves have remember every single play, which could be anywhere from 30 plays to 500 plays, depending on the coach. So between every play, they have a "huddle" where the play is called in by the coach to the quarterback and then to the whole team. |
