Football Rules and Regulations

Silly as it sounds, the length of a timeout depends upon how many TV commercials have been shown in the half. Besides the end of the quarter and the 2-minute warning, there are 8 additional "TV timeouts" which will extend the length of any given team timeout to 1 minute 50 seconds.

Once all of the TV timeouts have been used up, any remaining team timeouts taken will only last 30 seconds.

in football/soccer you do not get points for a goal you only get points if you win/lose/draw a match

Win= 3 points

lose= 0 points

draw= 1 point

if you score it gets added to the goal difference for your team which could decide what place on the league table you are

24 years old according to the NFL guidbook for official play and rules of football in the NFL association. however, one can enter the draft at 17 years of age with a restriction to a minimum of 5 years playing time on field and a salary cap at $200,000. for more info on the subject of NFL regulations refer to my book: the NFL guidbook for official play and rules of football in the NFL association by Joshua Adams Gates III.

After a safety, the team that was forced into a safety must punt the ball to the opposing team instead of kicking a normal kickoff. I guess it just depends on how far the ball is being punted, there are no rules on how far the ball must be punted after a safety. So the answer is yes but it's not called an onside kick.

A football field goal can be made whenever a team is close to their goal line and on 4th down. If they feel they are unable to complete a pass or run to make a 1st down they can attempt a field goal and take 3 points rather than 6 with a touchdown.

Seven on offense. No requirements for the defense

i dont think so because they never had possesion of the ball.

A coach can challenge a play at anytime in the game before either two minute warmings. After the two minute warning the review comes from up top. A coach will challenge a play when the call on the field was questionable and could be over turned. If he wins the challenge the call is overturned, although if he loses it the team will be charged with a timeout. You can Challenge most controversial calls on the field, I.E fumbles, catches, interceptions, even some kinds of fieldgoals. The challenge has been proven to be effective and for the most part fair and accurtate.

There is some flexibility in how large a pitch has to be but Gaelic Football and Hurling are played on a pitch approximately 137 metres long and 82 metres wide.

During the course of play, as long as you reestablish legal position on the court prior to receiving the ball play continues without penalty.

An inbounds play may be a different case. I believe you cannot be the first one to touch the inbounded ball if you go out of bounds to shake a defender.

A block below the waist is called a "cut block," and the rules regarding this can vary among different youth leagues, so it would be best to consult a rulebook or a league official.

At the high school level, cut blocking is allowed within the "free-blocking zone," defined as a rectangular area extending 4 yards laterally from the ball and 3 yards to either side of the line of scrimmage. Once the ball carrier has left the zone, the zone no longer exists.

A chop block, however, is never legal. This is when a player gets cut while already engaged by someone who is blocking high (above the knee).

Fouls or penalties in American football are the result of rules infractions that are seen by the referees on the field. They are signaled by an official throwing a marker, or "flag", on the field at the time of infraction. Announcement of the infraction(s) and enforcement of penalties follows immediately following gameplay, after the play is whistled "dead" and before the start of the subsequent play.

In the NFL and most other American football rules a team gets four downs to either score with a touchdown, a field goal, or to make a first down, and start the count of downs again. Usually the fourth down is used to punt the ball away, rather than give the football up on the spot, if the previous three downs didn't result in some more favorable outcome.

Go for it, punt it, or try for a field goal and 3 points

110 yards because the end zones are 5 yards

No, I don't think so.

The American Football Conference and the National Football Conference. They were created in 1970, when the NFL merged with the rival American Football League. Thirteen of the 16 teams from the pre-merger NFL established the NFC, while the Steelers, Colts, and Browns left the old NFL to join the 10 AFL teams to establish the AFC.

The ball is teed-up at the 40-yard line of the kicking team.

When two players reach the quarterback at the same time and make the tackle, the sack is divided between the two players. Same with tackles ... you might see in the game's statistics where a defensive player had 5.5 tackles. This is because, when two players are responsible for bringing the ball carrier down, regardless of whether it is the quarterback or another offensive player, the sack/tackle is divided between the two defensive players.

As of the 2007 season, no. The green dot signifies the player that has a radio receiver in his helmet and, as of the 2007 season, no defensive player is allowed to have a radio receiver in his helmet.

That is just how the rule is. Twenty yards are added to each field goal attempt from where the team stopped. It would be a little hard to kick it through the post at the one yard line, so that could be a reason.

A two-point conversion is reviewable, as are all scoring plays. But goal kicks are reviewable only if the ball is lower than the top of the uprights.
