Backfield - ✔️✔️The group of offensive players — the running backs and quarterback — who line
up behind the line of scrimmage.
Down - ✔️✔️A period of action that starts when the ball is put into play and ends when the ball is
ruled dead (meaning the play is completed). The offense gets four downs to advance the ball 10
yards. If it fails to do so, it must surrender the ball to the opponent, usually by punting on the
fourth down.
Drive: - ✔️✔️The series of plays when the offense has the football, until it punts or scores and the
other team gets possession of the ball.
End zone: - ✔️✔️A 10-yard-long area at each end of the field. You score a touchdown when you
enter the end zone in control of the football. If you're tackled in your own end zone while in
possession of the football, the other team gets a safety.
Extra point: - ✔️✔️A kick, worth one point, that's typically attempted after every touchdown (it's
also known as the point after touchdown, or PAT). The ball is placed on either the 2-yard line (in
theNFL) or the 3-yard line (in college and high school) and is generally kicked from inside the 10-
yard line after being snapped to the holder. It must sail between the uprights and above the
crossbar of the goalpost to be considered good.
