The NFL and CFL play their games by different rules.?

Hi: The best way to learn the difference is to watch television broadcasts. Ken

Answer 3

Closer to the CFL rules . . . I hafta admit, though, I'm not the biggest fan of only 3 downs. I know that it forces teams to throw more (which is exciting to watch) but it also seems to produce more punting (not so exciting - although it does put more emphasis on special teams).

Answer 4

I don't know about the actual rules but the scoring is different and the field is bigger. I wish we would play our football the same way the Canadians do.

Answer 5

Canadian college teams play by CFL rules.

Answer 6
