Football Positions Quiz

WOW! I got 10 and I've never even watched a whole football game. (Except high school)

I almost had to call shananigans on free safety, until I realized I had saftey. Oops. Got them all with plenty of time to spare.

OK, got 'em all - now I just need to learn what they do.

"Centre" should be accepted for the non-Americans.

Football is an American sport, and "center" is how it is really spelled.

Centre should be accepted, it's the non-American spelling.

This quiz could have been so much more fun and challenging. What about "nickelback," "flanker," "slotback," "noseguard," "middle linebacker," "strongside linebacker," weakside linebacker? There are more, if I really thought about it.

got 14

took me 1:03

was halfway thru before I realized the abbreviations were actually given as hints, far too easy

@Wildman.. a nickelback is just a 5th cornerback. a flanker is just another wide receiver. a slotback is basically another receiver, just lined up in the backfield a noseguard is a defensive tackle a middle linebacker is, well, a linebacker. a strong/weak side linebacker... see previous. all the positions you mention are just other names for standard positions, just depends on where they are lined up or how many of them are on the field.

any man who doesn't get these in less than 1 minute loses their man card forever, sorry

this is whats wrong with the world today. everyone wants to have an exception made for them... football is an american game. this position is called center. center is spelled this way in america. if you wanna spell it another way fine, but dont bitch about not getting the correct answer and i wont call soccer, football.

^nate: thats a given... ^nmartin3: you are 100% correct, football is a game played by big, strong, athletic and talented athletes... No offence, but most countries have at most 3 sports which make them limited on abilities. the U.S. on the other hand plays all world sports + our most american based sports... what im trying to get at is that all sports are different, so its not right to change anything (even spelling) within that sport :P

18/18

ouch

18/18 with 3:11 lest.

100% 2:24 left :)

This whole "football is for murkins!" thing is some of the dumbest stuff I've ever read. :) Football is played in a lot of countries, just like English is spoken and written in a lot of countries. Center and Centre are two correct spellings for the English name of the position, and it's easy to make the quiz accept them both without getting all big-chested and manly-defensive about it.

100% with 1:37 left. I don't even watch football. Pretty easy.

You could keep going... OLB, ILB, HC, NG,

2:47 to spare. what now.

@cameron I'm not sure that America makes much of a showing at the Cricket World Cup, or the Rugby World Cup, of the Rugby League World Cup - just a few sports that you guys don't play - not ALL world sports

3:19 to spare. What now, bluegold15?

3:24 to spare what now everyone

oooo safetys...right....

18 3:27 come at me bro

ctleng76 "Football is an American sport, and "center" is how it is really spelled." its also spelled centre in canada and we play football too...

It is not 'Football (Soccer) ' - This is American football - Therefore the name of the quiz should be changed appropriately.

15/18 not bad for being a gurl huh? =)

don't watch football...ever. got 11/18 :) and i'm a girl!

done with 3:00 exactly

Got all of them except for free safety. Darn it. So close! whatever, that's pretty good for a 14 year old girl.

Football is an American sport, so just deal with it. Center is what the position is called. So don't complain.

Why would you take a quiz on American things and spell them like Europe spells them it doesn't make sense. IF you want to spell things the way you learned to spell them then take a quiz a European things.

All eighteen with 2:43 left. Woot!

It would be really cool if it was a diagram of where these positions are on the field and you had to name the position.
