Although Canadian and American football are apparently very similar, there are some key differences between the two. Which rules are better CFL's or NFL's? Vote and tell us what would you change in the rules of this game.

CFL vs NFL

Football is one of the most popular American sports, alongside Baseball, Basketball and Hockey. However, American and Canadian football have their origins in rugby football. Football was introduced to North America in Canada by the British Army in the mid-18th century. Ever since the sport not only grew in popularity but also evolved quite differently in both USA and Canada. The rules in the major leagues of football in these countries, CFL and NFL show some important discrepancies. The field is larger in Canadian football and there are more players in each team (12 instead of 11). In the NFL, the offense has 4 downs to make a first down, score a touchdown or kick a field goal. In the CFL, the offense has only 3 downs. In the NFL teams have 3 timeouts per half, while in CLF they have only 1. Moreover there are some differences in the scoring, overtime, field goal post location, fair catches and punt returns.

All these differences have an impact in the strategies, tactics and tempo of the game. Which rules produce a more entertaining game, those of the Canadian or the American league?

I needed assistance on how to fix my credit and perhaps purchase a small condo/townhouse. I had a credit score of 517 across board, 4 hard inquiries (11-6-2019) 3 open accounts (car note, $35,000) and student loans (187,000-greatest mistake of my financial life); 3 negative marks, totaling $7,000-thought of asking for a pay to delete before learned about PINNACLE CREDIT SPECIALIST on MyFico blog. It still seems like a dream but I now have a FICO score of 811 and all hard inquiries, student loan, open accounts erased from my report and every debt now appears as paid on time. I sincerely appreciate the service I got from PINNACLE CREDIT SPECIALIST I encourage everyone who has credit issues to quickly contact them on: pinnaclecreditspecialist@gmail.com / +1 (585) 466 4373.
