This is 'Simply NFL', the website that makes the National Football League simple. With a growing interest from outside the US in American Football, especially in the UK, those interested need a place to learn the basics: be it the rules, the competing teams, the league system or just how everything works. When I first became interested in the sport I found it hard to pick up on those basics and remember them - everything was written in long, complex terms only a seasoned fan would understand. For those who find themselves in that position or have any desire to learn about the NFL, this site is the place for you. When you've checked out all I can offer you, I encourage you to head over to the NFL's official site: http://www.nfl.com/ for all the up-to-date news and in-depth information.

Why the NFL? American Football is one of the biggest sports in the world. The season's yearly finale - the Super-Bowl - draws an average television audience of 111 million, making it second only to the Uefa Champions League Final in terms of most watched annual sporting occasions. The NFL is littered with huge names and huge personalities. The drama, skill and showmanship on display is unique. All this and more is just waiting to be uncovered by you!
