[@TokyoBalletReprise]

What do you not understand about the NBA?

[@tt128556]

American football is basically a superhero story where the losing team's QB is the main villain. The rules of the game are written so that there's little room for anything else than QB heroics, which is why I think rugby is more interesting since it does not rely so heavily on one man.

[@15plus2isnot39]

9:30, no QB has ever won a Super Bowl in their 2nd year in the league...except for Tom Brady, Ben Roethlisberger, Russell Wilson, and maybe Kurt Warner depending if you count being at the Packer's training camp as a year.

[@SohamMajumderr]

1997 he was back up at rams 1998-1999 he won the starting job when the starting qb was injured

These are so frecking good. If I can request one, can you do a clueless European's guide to drafting? Im sure most Euro's like myself could get help with that.

[@MajorMango28]

Im not sure if you found out how it works by now but heres my explanation. every year at the end of the season all the nfl teams draft senior players from college you earn draft picks by doin poorly so usally the worst team gets in the top 5 but you can trade picks away for players and money and such. anyway usally its pretty mixed up because trades happen you dont see and its never as simple as worst team gets best pick and the best team gets the worst and sometimes they trade picks for differnt picks like trading 1st pick for a 6th and a 12th. maybe if the first pick is a qb and that posistion is filled you can get value out of the first pick.

[@Zac15Setter]

youre doing Gods work to spread the sport to our friends across the pond. Id love when NFL fans and Football fans can come together. KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK

[@sideephects]

throwing in my 2 cents. Remember how crazy it was when leicester won the prem? if the bengals win the superbowl it will be a little bit like that....not quite as crazy but comparable.

[@Big73Red]

I think it might be crazier. They hadn’t won a playoff game since the last time they made it to the Super Bowl. They were the worst team in the league a couple years ago. On paper they shouldn’t be in this Super Bowl.

[@dgrub15]

@XDNOPES YT its not even in the same realm of crazy. The leicester event is something that will literally never happen again in the future of the sport

[@alwaysdisputin9930]

1 thing i learnt in this video is that in the NFL, the "Manchester City" type teams can't hang on to their players due to the salary cap thing. & 2) the crappest team gets the 1st pick in the draft thing. This makes Leiceseseter winning the premier league crazier. Man City kept all their top players, they had a billiion pound squad & STILL Leicɛ§erster beat them

[@whosaidthat84]

@@alwaysdisputin9930 One thing about the draft is that bad teams like the Lions and Jaguars (big cat teams, coincidentally) and Browns have consistently wasted that top overall pick. A good player is only as good as the team around him. The Browns only got good recently after years upon years of failure.

Great video! There were a couple of errors, though: 9:31 There have been a few sophomore QB's that have one, notably Tom Brady and Big Ben (and technically Kurt Warner) 12:40 Matt Stafford took the Lions to the playoffs three times during his time there (which is even more impressive, given that this was the Lions) But yeah, Eminem being there feels like a nod to all the Detroit fans who are rooting for Stafford by proxy, and I love it

You called the Bengals the “guests” but technically they are the home team, it switches every year between NFC and AFC every year regardless of location. The Bengals are actually using the Chargers locker room, because they are the “home AFC” team. SOFI stadium is rare in that it has three locker rooms, one for Rams one for Chargers and one for visitors. Also you said Stanford “could never lift the Lions to the playoffs “ The Lions made the playoffs twice with Stanford, they just lost both times.
