4:33 it was a great play because he blocked the pass that his opponents were attempting by an huge leap through the air to barely snag the passing ball.

[@shaylablueangel]

Athletic plays doesn’t just mean jumping over a player. It’s the agility, power, stamina, etc… of the individual. So running over everyone, jumping, running long distances, leaping for a catch, slipping out of hoods, is all athletic.

[@ettibbet5493]

Exactly, look at say Tommy Frazier run in the 95 Fiesta bowl where he breaks 8 tackles and houses an option, play has a lot in it, he jukes 2 players, gets piled up, muscles threw the other 6 and then just out runs everyone

[@dolphpaperroute6362]

Guy acting like flipping over corners for a Td happens every other play 😭

[@user-dg9qf7me8y]

DnD has taught me that Athletics does not equal Acrobatics.

[@futur_sunds]

It’s nice to hear someone actually find things they like about the sport and enjoying it instead of making fun of us for the sport. Really enjoyed this video!

[@ricardosaenz569]

The pilon its self is considered inbounds and the only thing required to cross the plain of the endzone for a touch down is the tip of the ball

[@buckeyegirl16]

It's still funny watching videos like this and seeing the throwback film And remembering how normal that quality seemed back in the day but looking at now against current film I can't believe we actually could tell what was going on

[@kelcesoloz_5173]

4:26 the reason they said good play is because the defense swatted the ball, stopping the catcher from catching the ball and giving them the advantage.

[@austinanderson6130]

The incomplete pass to Zay Jones at 6:58 is crazy. Look at how he gets up, it’s like he goes in reverse. You even questioned what’s going on? But I don’t think you truly noticed.

[@angiepen]

The one where you asked why is this clip in the video, the guy was flat on his face and got up to his feet through basically sheer core strength. Go back and look at that again. The play's over -- it's not about the play. It's about how he got up. I could *never* have done that.

[@AdamNisbett]

7:20 the ball just has to pass into the airspace above the end zone while in the control of the player. The orange pylon marks the corner of the zone so if they can touch the inside corner of the pylon it proves the ball was in the touchdown zone.

[@Alex.Kaleipahula]

Think of the end zone as a box with a laser wall pointed up on the front back and the sides all you would have to do was penetrate one of those lasers with the ball and it’s a touchdown

[@AdamNisbett]

@@Alex.Kaleipahula Yes, also has to be in control of a player of the team targeting that end zone at the time that it crosses into the goal zone as well - not just that the ball penetrates the imaginary “laser walls”. That seems obvious to those used to American Football, but might not be so much to someone more used to a sport like soccer where the ball being kicked through the plane of the goal zone would count.

[@jasonweible2834]

Also I'd like to point out that it doesn't matter where the body of the player is when the ball breaks the plane as long as no part of his body is touching the ground on or past the sideline.

[@kokomo9764]

The reason the quality varies is because some of them are very old and recorded with the technology of the day.

[@pootinplays]

I think if you you have never held a football before its hard to appreciate how insane these catches are. They a probably a little bigger than you think they are. These giants make them look so small.

[@agent1543]

Julio Jones got 300 Yard Receiving against the Carolina Panthers, I was actually at that game. That is impressive. Good stats for a game is 100 Yards Rushing or Receiving, 300 yards passing. If a player scores 2 TDs that's good, if a QB throws for 5 TDs that's good. If the Defender gets a Sack, Interception, or a Forced Fumble in a game that's impressive as well. You need to watch a game to get the understanding of it.

[@stinky60096]

#17 with the Cardinals was a Quarterback. Quarterbacks don't do moves like that. They usually try very hard to protect themselves from injury. They have to get the ball over the white line; it's called "breaking the plane". It is a focus point in the corner of the field for the pylon.

[@Brook-ct3kk]

Several plays you can figure out by watching, listening and less talk

[@heavin6586]

Im just now going back and watching your videos from before i found your channel. I have loved all your videos but, your reactions to these football ones are the best! Please do some more! ( Especially if they pertain to my Kansas City Chiefs. ❤ ) but seriously, more please!

[@Rb-li1cb]

You are so authentic in your reactions. I love watching you every day. I feel like you’re my friend/family. ❤

[@ChrysalysMoon]

6:54 ...did u go back and catch that?? It wasn't a bad clip, it was in there because of the gravity-defying way he got back on his feet! Athleticism and skill, indeed!

[@christophermckinney3924]

The ball has to be in your possession and cross the "plane of the goal line" to be a touch down. It does not have to be touched down in he end zoen as it does in Rugby. It just has to go over the line. If you hit the orange pilon, you're in.

[@mikesakas]

Try to get a ticket to annual games in London.. I would recommend somewhere around the 20 yard line about half way up the bottom section. You're high enough to see the whole field and the plays develop, you can see the goal line and hopefully half the time the plays will be right in front of you.. if you're on the 50 yard line sht always is happening down there somewhere.. too low and you can't see the far side of the field. There are a couple of bars in the Fiztrovia section that show NFL..

[@stinky60096]

I am surprised as far back in history as they went that they didn't show Christian Okoye running with 4 guys on his back over the endzone for a touchdown.

[@TheDarthSoldier]

The biggest hat trick in the NFL: throw a touchdown, catch a touchdown, rush for a touchdown in the same game

[@AdamNisbett]

No these types of plays don’t usually happen. These are the highlights of all time.

[@sethp26]

The clips are low quality because they're from the 80s and 90s lol

[@halah34]

If a guy gets tackled in his own end zone with the ball, it’s called a safety and is two points for the defense. Plus, the defending team gets the ball after.

[@agent1543]

It was a great play because AJ Terrell was playing Corner Back for the Defense and knocked the ball away from the Wide Receiver so he couldn't catch it. If that WR would have caught that ball he may have scored a Touchdown. He got so much air to knock that ball away.

[@Alex.Kaleipahula]

Think of the end zone as a box with a laser wall pointed up on the front back and the sides all you would have to do was penetrate one of those lasers with the ball and it’s a touchdown

[@jaydom8264]

The fast guy is DK Metcalf. Absolute U N I T and can hang with world class sprinters

[@ryancondor8078]

I think he was clocked at over 23mph during that play which is insane!

[@user-oc1qo5dk4b]

Are you permanently dehydrated? You're always drinking something throughout every video. 😆

[@L3WGReacts]

lmao I’ve always been like that, I drink sooooooo much and always have a drink by me

[@gggggggggggas382]

Opening killed me😂😂😂

[@catoblack9297]

9:20 I grew up with Metcalf, the tackler, he was created for this sport, mom = Olympic runner dad = NFL legend.

[@Estranged180]

1: For a quarterback to run forward, straight into defenders is a highly unusual thing. They're more often going to the sidelines, or trying NOT to get hit. 2: "Good play". This one confused you a little. The "good play" was the guy that touched the ball, but didn't catch it was a defender, not the intended target. He interrupted the throw, eventually causing a turnover (the other team gets possession of the ball). 3: Technically, they're not running to hit that orange pylon in the corner. They're aiming for the single blade of grass at the very corner where the pylon sits.

[@vincentlavallee2779]

Great NFL video! The low quality videos are before HD existed, which was before 2005.

[@elijahfoster2]

College Football Miracles Part 2!

[@lilacpower2693]

The guy who jumped over the other guys head who was trying to tackle him, jumped over his head for a 1st down and not for fun😂.

[@pballplayu94]

as long as the ball crosses the goal line its a touchdown, thats why they aim for the pylon

[@Mabus_Incarnate]

You should try some more hockey, like best NHL playoff overtime moments, it's all sudden death in playoffs.

[@jaredmichael805]

Love your videos man. Keep it up

[@revgurley]

I'm crying at your "orange rectangle." It's called a pylon, but you probably know that by now Good on you for learning American football.

[@Wer-yy9dc]

For the second play, as long as the ball is in possession by the player, touching or any contact with the pylon is considered a touchdown unless the ground is hit first.

[@jeriahtule9948]

You know every time a European reacts to the nfl clip that’s clearly from like thirty years ago they always ask about the quality. Is the rest of the world just lightyears ahead of the US in terms of graphics and quality that they can’t fathom that technology was once poorer then it is now?

[@matthewminic7808]

As long as the BALL touches the pylon ( orange thing ) or crosses the white line it’s still a touchdown as long as the player hasn’t stepped outta bounds, so you can jump and reach and your body could be out of bounds but as long as the ball stays in and crosses it’s a touchdown

[@neldadavis2793]

It’s fun watching britts and football. Your funny

[@52montoya]

If the ball goes over the line, it's a touchdown; and there are no Hat Tricks in football.

[@therealaustinpowers1967]

Yes, if they hit inside the orange thing, it's a touchdown. The quality is bad on some of the plays is because the games were told old for HD quality video. Yes, if a player gets three touchdown, that would be the NFL version of a hat trick.

[@ronaldheesch3723]

The Marshawn Lynch run 6 min into video was during a playoff game against the saints, that run with the crowd cheering at the stadium made a magnatude 4.0 earthquake, if you watch closely you can see the cameras shaking from the noise of the crowd too

[@lilebb1657]

In America they show the play at regular speed then repeat it in slow motion. You should do that. Makes it a lot more clear what is happening

[@raspycellist]

For it to be a touchdown, only the tip of the football has to break what's called the plane. It's an invisible field that's obviously not, right of the goal line, the player does not have to cross. But they do have to be in bounds.

[@mikesakas]

yes with the orange pylon because it is placed on the insides of the line... it's where the ball is not where the players is, assuming the player does not go out of bounds... Does the ball cross the line before the player TOUCHES out of bounds.

[@samanthacarter9527]

L3WG I think you would enjoy the NFL training.

[@patriciahughes5592]

It’s all about the yards.

[@sherrygreer3069]

Welcome to our world!🏈

[@gunny2044]

In order for it to be a touchdown the football has to break the plan of the goal line. The plan of the goal line is the leading edge of the thick white stripe. There are four orange pylons that mark the four corners of the end zone, therefore the front pylons mark the leading edge of the end one, if the ball touches them, it is a touch down.

[@kay-collins]

6:13 it wasn’t only because dude was so fast it was because he woulda got knocked down by the other guys behind him too & all 3 of the guys running towards him looked a lot bigger 😂 either that or they were throwing the game for the bets. That also happens a lot.... 😒 Also, the one where you asked why did they say good job to the guy who looked like he was trying to catch the ball but just hit it, it’s because he wasn’t really trying to catch it but trying to stop the other guy from catching it. The guy behind him on the other team is who that ball was meant for.

[@patriotjon8535]

Check out a video on Earl Campbell. He was a running back for The University of Texas, And played in the NFL for the Houston Oilers. The man was an amazing running back. He was like a human tank. He was a beast. Nobody could tackle him. It always took at least two men to take him down, And they would end up taking a ride on his back for a few yards in the process. A girlfriend of mine sat next to him for a picture once. Just one of his thighs was bigger than my entire girlfriend.

[@queencerseilannister3519]

6:56 any idea what strength that takes?? lol

[@Thesirturbo792]

0:44, yes it was a touchdown, its not where the player is its where the ball is, if the ball crosses the line into the endzone it counts however, if the ball went out of bounds it wouldn't count so thats why he leaned inside

[@amymiller8964]

The running back broke 5 tackles! The RBs have the greatest runs! And there is nothing like a one headed catch usually from the wide receiver. Lol at “welcome to WWE”! You are right.

[@patriciahughes5592]

My son, each line is 10 yards. If they don’t make the ten, they make it to the second, which is delineated. So that would be a second and ten. They need ten yards to go ahead. The field defines how this goes.

[@RudyCantGame]

You get the Al Bundy award if you get 4 touchdowns in 1 game.

[@indydosanjh9495]

Touch the orange pylon in the end zone it’s a touchdown

[@kelcesoloz_5173]

If you ever are confused by something, you can hit me up I’m a football fan and know a lot.

[@duggla781]

HOLY 🐬 DIVE!

[@riptide6161]

The clips you didn't understand are the DEFENSIVE players just barely tipping the ball away from the receiver. There are some GREAT plays from defensive backs shutting down their opponents offense. Yeah, that would have been a great catch for a Touchdown but... "CAN YYYYOU BELIEVE IT??? GREAT PLAY BY DEFENSIVE BACK JOE DOE KNOCKING THE BALL AWAY FROM JAWQUAW JONES!!! THE HEDGHOGS WWWWIIIINNNNNN"

[@alfonsocain8773]

If a player has possession any part of the ball breaks the threshold of the end zone it's a touchdown, the orange pylons are on the goal line.

[@theyrwatchinus90]

You need to watch some Devin Hester highlights.

[@sethp26]

If a player gets 3 touchdowns that isn't the quarterback, so one running back or one wide receiver getting 3 is extremely impressive, and is referred to as a hat trick by a lot of people

[@L3WGReacts]

righttttt got you! thanks:)

[@philipgallo8779]

Kinda sad he didn’t really see how epic objs catch was. He so focused on the flipping wait till he discovers gymnastics in the Olympics lol

[@isaiahtowers1865]

Okay so basically with American football. You want to get the ball down the field and score a touchdown. You have 3 free plays to do whatever and 1 play to decide wether you kick the ball down the field, or go for it on 4th down and risk losing the ball at that spot. Although, if you get the ball 10 yards down the field pass the yellow line you gain all your downs back. So anytime a player passes a yellow line and starts celebrating it’s because they now have a new set of downs. Celebration in football goes beyond just touchdowns, but for first downs, preventing big plays, etc… it’s very often I see these videos and people are like “why aren’t they flipping around?” Because that’s pretty rare in the nfl and is why they make lists like this. The majority of plays in the nfl are more like chess

[@isaiahtowers1865]

Also you’re the only reactor I’ve seen watch these running backs break ankles and knock people off them and just stare at the screen like “where’s the flips?”

[@cameronbillings3612]

Touching the orange means the ball has crossed the line so yes as long as the ball crosses the line before the player is down then it’s a touchdown

[@techno9972]

Wait till he sees the hail murray

[@dalemoore8582]

When the announcer. said "greatest play" he may have been talking about the defensive player, not the the recirver. The orange cones have nothing to with touchdowns. It just marks thecorner of the endzone. As long as the ball crosses the line at the endzone with a rec iever incontrol of the ball its a touch down

[@713flores09]

It’s called Football because you must KICK the ball to start the game!

[@lenahedger]

Listen as long as the player or the ball doesn’t touch the ground if the ball hot the pilot or crosses the line it’s a touchdown.

[@alfonsocain8773]

Nick foles was the first player ever to throw a touchdown and catch a touchdown in the Superbowl.

[@patriciahughes5592]

It’s all about yardage. If they get a fourth down, it’s a Hail Mary.

[@patriciahughes5592]

It’s out. Remember that each stripe on the field is 10 yards. Their is nothing between football and hockey and basketball.

[@Dammitman_]

the ball has to be inside the orange marker to count as a TD

[@saddy14]

It’s a touch down if the ball is over the line

[@garymathews4068]

Take a look at Mike Alstott

[@agent1543]

React to these two videos. You'll get a better understanding of a College Football game ... #3 Georgia vs. #2 Michigan Full Game Highlights | 2021 NCAA Orange Bowl also 2022 CFP National Championship, #3 Georgia vs #1 Alabama (Highlights) Notice how much bigger these "kids" are than grown men. SEC Football is a whole different beast. Michigan is Big 10, Georgia and Alabama are both in the SEC.

[@Dammitman_]

the one the 7:05 the guys gets up by his tip toes, you need a better angle its crazy

[@saddy14]

And if your in your own zone and gets tackled it adds 2 points to the opponent

[@johnshack5572]

bro not catching these clips

[@paradoxinteractive6202]

if any part of ball crosses goal line its a touchdown

Yo there are full games from history you can react to, just don't spoil it for yourself.

[@indydosanjh9495]

There r no hatricks exactly in football. The closest is a rushing touchdown a passing touchdown and a trick play where u throw a touchdown too

[@Lord.Derkington]

This is a video about most athletic plays… not the best. Just because its not a touchdown doesnt mean what theyre doing isnt insane

[@ryancondor8078]

Do yourself a favor, and watch a 'Barry sanders highlights' video. Thank me later 🥂
