The offense has 3 tries to run to a 1st down. They need to get the football 10 yards down the field. If they don't succeed, it is 4th down. Most of the time the offense punts the ball on 4th down(kick it to the other team) or goes for a field goal(kick pig between yellow fork 3 points yes) A field goal is worth 3 points. I have some...reservations about the way some coaches call plays, regarding 4th down...but that's for another time.

A touchdown is worth 6 points, that is when the offense successfully makes it to the end of the field. After the touchdown, much like a field goal, the kicker kicks the ball through the yellow fork for an extra 1 point.

A defenses job is to murder the offense, make sure they stop breathing, no touchdown, grab the ball at all costs. Unless that defense's name is the Cleveland Brown, universal rule of american sports, Cleveland sucks(except for their basketball team)

That is the simple explanation. It is not constant, like soccer.

But, like...what's a "1st down"? XD WHAT ARE THESE DOWNS? So your touchdowns are like our goals, then. They're both worth 6 points. I'm still confused regarding the rest lol. TO YOUTUBE.
