QB Talk—A New Way To Talk Football Episode # 3

Learning football terms is a must. This episode introduces you to these terms: Offense: The team that has the ball and is trying to score (11 players on offense) Defense: The team that is trying to stop the offense from scoring (11 players on defense) Total football players permitted on the field during a play: 22 players Interception: When the quarterback who has the ball throws a pass that is caught by a player on the other team—the defensive team—this is called an interception. Loss of possession: When a quarterback throws an interception he loses possession of the ball and he and the rest of the offense are replaced by that same team’s defensive players. Change of Possession: After an interception the ball goes over to the other team. The team that intercepted will now have a chance to put their Quarterback and the rest of their offense on the field.
