If you look at the English league or Spanish league, or infact most other leagues you usually get scores of 2-1 or 3-2 or even higher, why is it Americans complain about this. If you look at the english league you only see a couple of 0-0 draws over many weeks. In American football a game can last up to 4 hours and over that time the score are often only in the 20s or even less.
Do Americans not realise that the reason why the points difference is so big is due to the fact that you get 6 points for a touchdown and then an extra point for the mighty hard part of kicking a ball over and between an unguarded goal, also another point for doing the same thing in open play. A game of football lasts at most 1 hour 50 mins(from start to finish) and you only get 1 goal(point) for a goal. Australia beat Samoa 31-0 in soccer yet the highest score I can find in NFL is Washington (72)vs. N.Y. Giants (41),if you break it down, this is only 10-5 touchdowns at best.Why do you say this is the reason?
