Ball Possession: The attacking team tries to advance with the ball to score points, while the defensive team tries to prevent the advance or regain possession of the ball.

Pass and Run: The quarterback passes the ball or players can run with it. There are specific rules for completed passes, incomplete passes and interceptions.

Fouls and Penalties: There are several penalties, such as pass interference, holding, and illegal shifting, that can result in yards gaining or falling back or further downs.

Replay: Some plays can be reviewed by challenges from coaches or automatically in the final two minutes of each half of the game to ensure correct decisions by referees.

Victory Conditions: The team with the most points at the end of the game wins. In the event of a tie in the regular season, there may be extra time.
